Variety<\/a> first reported that a new season is \u201cshaping up\u201d and that casting is already underway, with the new run set to feature more episodes than the fifth season, which contained only five.<\/p>\n The new season will reportedly be even more cinematic than previous outings of the dystopian anthology, with each episode being treated as an individual film.<\/p>\n Black Mirror started life on Channel 4 in 2011, before moving to Netflix<\/a> for its third season in 2016. It has so far featured 22 regular episodes and one interactive, choose-your-own-adventure film, Bandersnatch<\/a>, all of which have explored the dark side of technology and the effect it can have on its users and their own social interactions.<\/p>\n Previous stars of the series have included Jesse Plemons, Hayley Atwell, Jon Hamm, Daniel Kaluuya, Miley Cyrus and many more.<\/p>\n The series\u2019 creator, Brooker, previously told Radio Times magazine<\/a>\u00a0he didn\u2019t know \u201cwhat stomach there would be for stories about societies falling apart\u201d, so explained that he wasn\u2019t currently working on a new season. At the time Brooker said he was \u201csort of keen to revisit my comic skill set, so I\u2019ve been writing scripts aimed at making myself laugh\u201d.<\/p>\n However, that was in May 2020, at the height on the Coronavirus pandemic, so it may be that Brooker has changed his mind about viewers\u2019 appetite for hugely popular anthology.<\/p> The reported upcoming sixth season would be the first since Brooker and his creative partner Annabel Jones left their production company House of Tomorrow and founded a new company, Broke and Bones<\/a>.<\/p>\n As the rights to Black Mirror had remained with House of Tomorrow\u2019s parent company, Endemol Shine Group, there had been fears the arrangement would mean the end of Black Mirror for good. Variety reports that a deal must have been reached to allow for a new season.<\/p>\n RadioTimes.com<\/a> has reached out to Netflix for comment.<\/p>\n Black Mirror seasons 1-5 and Black Mirror: Bandersnatch are available to stream on Netflix<\/a>.
