“They call it mind-expanding…” That’s the sound of Black Mirror returning for a seventh season – and a new trailer gives us a first look at the anthology’s latest chapters.

Charlie Brooker’s dark, satirical anthology series will debut six brand new episodes, including a sequel to the sci-fi adventure USS Callister. But the trailer makes it clear that nothing is as it seems, from artificial life to brain-augmenting technology.

Teaser: Black Mirror returns for Season 7

16th March 2024

Black Mirror will return for a seventh season in 2025, Netflix has announced.

Charlie Brooker and Annabel Jones’ dark, satirical anthology series has come a long way since its debut on Channel 4 so many years ago. Having jumped to Netflix and upped its budget, scale and star casting, it dropped a sixth season in 2023, continuing to explore the nature of human existence in a digital age but with an increasingly unpredictable mix of genres.

Now, perhaps most unpredictable of all, Black Mirror is giving us its first sequel with one episode of the upcoming seventh season promised to be a sequel to the Season 4 opener USS Callister. That 2017 episode followed Robert Daly (Jesse Plemons), the founder of an online multiplayer sci-fi game who creates a Star Trek-like world in which he gets the authority and power he thinks he deserves. The sequel will pick up after the events of that episode, as the crew of the USS Callister find their problems are just beginning.

Season 7 will comprise six new episodes in total, with a release date yet to be announced. Here’s the teaser revealing the show’s return:
