anything regarding the future of <a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/tv\/sci-fi\/black-mirror-season-6-review\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\">Black Mirror<\/a>. That is perhaps unsurprising \u2013 the episodes have only just come out and previously it has often taken a long time following one season for us to get word on another.<\/p>\n<p>However, for our money it would certainly seem more than possible that the show could come back for at least one more outing. This season burst open the idea of what a Black Mirror episode could be in such a surprising way, that now more than ever there would be infinite possibilities for stories going into season 7.<\/p>\n<p>One clear way this has been achieved is with the introduction of <a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/tv\/sci-fi\/black-mirror-season-6-red-mirror-newsupdate\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\">Red Mirror<\/a> episodes, a supernatural semi spin-off within a season which doesn\u2019t revolve around tech at all. With only one Red Mirror episode in the bag, it seems unlikely that Charlie Brooker would want to leave things there and never produce another one.<\/p>\n<p>Chatting to\u00a0<a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\">RadioTimes.com<\/a>\u00a0and other press about the decision, Brooker said we could \u201cpossibly\u201d see more episodes under the label.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt depends what people make of it and how it gets received and this that and the other,\u201d he added.<\/p> <div class=\"&quot;brightcove\" embed=\"\"> <div class=\"&quot;embed__intrinsic&quot;\"> <div class=\"&quot;brightcove__player\" vjs-playlist-player-container=\"\"> <video data-video-id=\"&quot;6329540541112&quot;\" data-account=\"&quot;69912529001&quot;\" data-player=\"&quot;ByeOf0VZEl&quot;\" data-embed=\"&quot;default&quot;\" data-application-id=\"\" controls=\"\" class=\"&quot;video-js&quot;\"\/><\/div> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<script src=\"&quot;\/\/players.brightcove.net\/69912529001\/ByeOf0VZEl_default\/index.min.js&quot;\"\/><p>\u201cIt was really really useful as a sort of refresh \u2013 a reset. When Black Mirror started, it was 2011 and at the time, there weren\u2019t many shows that looked like it or there weren\u2019t many shows where someone looked at a smartphone frankly, let alone obsessed over one and sat there staring at it until it ruined them. It felt like there\u2019s quite a few shows with dystopian sci-fi technical themes.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo, partly what I was doing, I was setting myself a task of \u2018What if I think of some storylines that aren\u2019t to do with technology and are to do with horror or set in the past?\u2019 It was partly doing that and then through doing that, we got an episode \u2013 Demon 79, which is set in 1979 and is almost like a companion piece to Black Mirror.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHopefully, psychologically, it still feels like a Black Mirror episode. What that also did was, the process of thinking of things in that way, then unlocked things like\u00a0<a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/tv\/sci-fi\/black-mirror-beyond-the-sea-ending-explained\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\">Beyond The Sea<\/a>\u00a0where when I\u2019d first thought of that idea, I thought of it as a near-future story that would\u2019ve been set in 2045 or whenever. But as soon as you think \u2018Well, what if I set it in the past?\u2019, it becomes a different story and the characters in it are behaving differently. So it was just very interesting. Again, it\u2019s a longwinded answer but the answer is maybe.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>After season 6, the ground feels as fertile as ever for new Black Mirror stories, and fans seems as excited as ever to get feast their eyes on a new batch of episodes.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ll keep this page updated as and when any news is revealed regarding the future of the series.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>When would Black Mirror

be released. season 6 has only just been made available and we still have no word on whether a seventh season is on the cards.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s even difficult to look at the gaps between past seasons to get a sense of when to expect a seventh. Since the show moved to Netflix, new seasons (or instalments such as Bandersnatch) at first seemed to arrive with around a year in between them, meaning there is potential that we could get season 7 in <strong>Summer 2024<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>However, the gap between season 5 and season 6 was far longer than usual, lasting for four full years. There are a number of potential reasons for this break \u2013 for one thing, Charlie Brooker and his creative partner Annabel Jones <a href=\"\/\/variety.com\/2022\/tv\/global\/black-mirror-season-6-netflix-1235266891\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\">left their production company House of Tomorrow<\/a> in January 2020, leaving the rights to the show with parent company Endemol Shine Group.<\/p>\n<p>This meant that until a deal was arranged, which evidently one was, no more seasons could be produced.<\/p>\n<p>There was also, of course, the matter of the pandemic, which likely slowed things down further, and then there is Brooker\u2019s own appetite for the project himself.<\/p>\n<p>In 2020 he told <a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/tv\/sci-fi\/black-mirror-6-update\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\">Radio Times magazine<\/a> that he didn\u2019t know \u201cwhat stomach there would be for stories about societies falling apart\u201d, so was clear that, at the time, he was not working on any new material for the show.<\/p>\n<p>Given that Brooker seems to have regained his passion for the series, and there seem to be no current rights issues getting in the way of future seasons being produced, here\u2019s hoping that season 7 can go into development sooner rather than later, and we will get it far earlier than 2027.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Who would be in the cast for Black Mirror season

as an anthology series, it\u2019s almost impossible for us to tell who will be <a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/tv\/sci-fi\/black-mirror-season-6-cast-netflix\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\">in the cast<\/a> for a potential seventh season.<\/p>\n<p>Currently, only a handful of actors have appeared <a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/tv\/sci-fi\/best-black-mirror-episodes\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\">in the series<\/a> more than once, and they have always played different characters. This list includes Aaron Paul, Hannah John-Kamen, Monica Dolan, Michaela Coel, Daniel Lapaine and Anjana Vasan.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking at a Q&amp;A about returning actors, Brooker explained: \u201cThere\u2019s no rule that says that an actor can\u2019t come back to <span class=\"&quot;searchHighlight&quot;\">Black<\/span> <span class=\"&quot;searchHighlight&quot;\">Mirror<\/span>. We have had some \u2013 Monica Dolan is in this season as well, who was in Smithereens in season 5. Anjana Vasan who stars in Demon 79 alongside Paapa, she was in Nosedive. Michaela Cole was in twice, she had a small part in Nosedive and USS Callister. So yes, there\u2019s loads of them.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s unlikely, but of course not impossible, that we will see any of these stars back for season 7. As for who else could appear, the world really is Charlie Brooker, Netflix and the show\u2019s casting directors\u2019 oyster.<\/p>\n<p>Any number of stars could pitch up for an episode, as seen by this year\u2019s appearances from the likes of Salma Hayek and Josh Hartnett.<\/p> <h2><strong>Is there a trailer for Black Mirror season 7?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>There isn\u2019t a trailer available for Black Mirror season 7 yet but we will make sure to keep this page updated once any new footage becomes available.
