The first trailer for season five of Black Mirror has landed, and the big-name starring show looks absolutely wild, as per.
In the brief clip, Miley Cyrus, Fleabag’s hot priest Andrew Scott, Anthony Mackie, Pom Klementieff, and more feature. It leads with three new storylines from the Netflix show – Cyrus is a disillusioned, purple bob-wearing musician, and Scott is absolutely losing it over how hooked on phones we all are and facing off with police. As always, the brief glimpses we get are expansive: there’s shots of a school canteen, and a fantastical, Tekken-style fight, sentient robots, and couples in turmoil.
This season’s synopsis details that the show: “taps into our collective unease with the modern world, with each stand-alone episode a sharp, suspenseful tale exploring themes of contemporary techno-paranoia leading to an unforgettable – and sometimes unsettling – conclusion.”
The last season of Black Mirror saw the anthology show debut its first interactive episode, Bandersnatch – Dazed unpacked its best moments, easter eggs, and behind-the-scenes bits with its star, Fionn Whitehead.
Black Mirror, created and run by Charlie Brooker and Annabel Jones, is officially scheduled to drop all of its fifth season episodes on Netflix on June 5.
