Streaming giant Netflix has revealed that its hit sci-fi series, Black Mirror, will be back for a seventh season in 2025. The forthcoming season is slated to consist of six episodes, one of which will reportedly be a follow-up to an older episode in the series. The plot of this sequel story is planned to build on season four’s episode “USS Callister,” which took inspiration from Star Trek and followed the adventures of a captain-like character in the world of a reclusive programmer.
Black Mirror first premiered on Channel 4 in the UK, where it was telecast for two seasons before Netflix acquired it for the third season. The show later moved to the streaming service and has since showcased the prowess of many Hollywood stars, including Salma Hayek, Miley Cyrus, and Aaron Paul, among others.
Black Mirror is an anthology series that envisions the implications of technology and how it impacts people’s lives. The series returned to screens for its sixth season in 2023, following a four-year hiatus. While the preceding season comprised of five episodes of forty to over sixty minutes, season five had only three episodes, each stretching over an hour.
Netflix has not yet declared a release date for the upcoming season of Black Mirror. However, stating that the show is making a comeback in 2025, the streaming platform has created a buzz among its worldwide audience. Would viewers be privy to another mind-bending, reality-questioning theory series, or is it too soon to predict the storyline? Time will tell, and fans can’t wait to explore the techno-dystopian world of Black Mirror once again
