Black Mirror
Stream on: Netflix
Release date: June 2023
It’s back. Black Mirror Season 6 is returning this June and will be the most unpredictable season yet. There’s always been an element of the unexpected baked into the dark, satirical anthology, but with Season 6, creator Charlie Brooker tells Tudum that he even surprised himself.
Stars like Aaron Paul, Salma Hayek Pinault and Paapa Essiedu are just a few of the actors joining the cast for the season, which will feature five episodes, two more than the previous installment in 2019. Expect mind-bending, dystopian fun which may strike too close to home, with stories ranging from space in the ’60s to a sleepy Scottish town and England in the late ’70s.
