The first full trailer for Season 6 of the satirical smash-hit Black Mirror has finally been released by Netflix. It's been four years since the three-episode Season 5. However, Season 6 promises to be the long-running series' biggest release yet. Furthermore, Season 6 will be the fourth season of the show to air on Netflix. The show's first two seasons premiered on the British TV station, Channel 4.
Five star-studded episodes will drop on June 15. However, series creator Charlie Brooker has also hinted that there will be some form of a wraparound story that somehow links all five. This would be a first for the show, which has always largely presented standalone episodes.
Black Mirror Season 6 Plots Revealed
The trailer gives us the first proper look at all five episodes. "Joan is Awful" follows a woman trying to cope with the fact that a streaming platform has turned her seemingly ordinary life into a TV drama starring Salma Hayek. "Loch Henry" is about a young couple who travel to rural Scotland to film a nature documentary. However, they ultimately become obsessed with a nearby town's dark past. "Beyond the Sea" covers the respective reactions to tragedy by two astronauts on a space station in an alternate 1969. "Mazey Day" follows a paparazzo and the young film star she is trying to photograph. Finally, "Demon 79" is about a sales assistant from northern England in 1979 who is told she must commit violent acts to prevent disaster.
As mentioned, the cast is undeniably A-list. "Joan is Awful" stars Annie Murphy (Schitt's Creek), Salma Hayek (From Dusk Till Dawn, The Hitman's Bodyguard, Eternals), and Michael Cera (Juno, Scott Pilgrim, Barbie). "Loch Henry" features stage actor Samuel Blenkin, Myha'la Herrold (Industry, Bodies Bodies Bodies), and John Hannah (The Mummy, Four Weddings And A Funeral). Meanwhile, "Beyond the Sea" is led by Aaron Paul (Breaking Bad) and Josh Hartnett (30 Days of Night, Penny Dreadful) but will also feature the likes of Kate Mara (House of Cards, The Martian). Furthermore, the primary stars of "Mazey Day" are Zazie Beetz (Atlanta) and Clara Rugaard (I Am Mother, Press Play). Finally, "Demon 79" is headlined by Black Mirror alum Anjana Vasan and Paapa Essiedu (Men, I May Destroy You).
