We have had a long wait for Charlie Brooker to give us another shard of the Black Mirror. For a good while, Brooker took a hiatus with COVID-19 and all. At the time he said that he couldn’t come up with a more fucked up version of the world. Well, Brooker has had enough time to dream up our next big techno nightmare and I’m beyond ready for it.

The first Black Mirror season six trailer gives us a look at the new tales that are being offered up. This time around there is even a story that bends reality and introduces a streaming network that mirrors Netflix. Perhaps worse of all is that the Netflix-like series offers up reality series’ that can imitate your very own life with someone famous at its center. Yea, our brains are already hurting.

The series stars Aaron Paul, Anjana Vasan, Annie Murphy, Auden Thornton, Ben Barnes, Clara Rugaard, Daniel Portman, Danny Ramirez, Himesh Patel, John Hannah, Josh Hartnett, Kate Mara, Michael Cera, Monica Dolan, Myha’la Herrold, Paapa Essiedu, Rob Delaney, Rory Culkin, Salma Hayek Pinault, Samuel Blenkin and Zazie Beetz.
