'Black Mirror' has been renewed for season 5 on Netflix
- The sci-fi anthology series "Black Mirror" has officially been renewed for a fifth season at Netflix.
- The show tweeted a teaser video to announce the news.
- No further information, including a release date, is available, though.
"Black Mirror" fans can rejoice, as the sci-fi anthology series has officially been renewed for season 5 - but we still don't know when it will drop to Netflix.
In true "Black Mirror" fashion, the announcement was cryptic. A tweet from the show's Twitter Monday morning, retweeted by Netflix, said "The future will be brighter than ever," with a teaser video. The video is a collection of clips from the first four seasons, with the tagline "Be Right Back" appearing at the end of the video.
"Be Right Back" is the title of an episode from the show's second season.
Season 4 of "Black Mirror" was released in December, while season 3 debuted in October 2016. That's a over a year between the two seasons, so with no official release date, it's hard to say when "Black Mirror" will return. Season 5 has also not even started production yet.
The show, which features a different story and cast each episode, highlights often dark visions of the future that aren't very far from reality.
That clearly doesn't stop audiences from tuning in, and if you can't wait for the new season, the entire series is on Netflix.
Here is a ranking of every episode to consider for your binge, and here are 6 shows to watch while you anxiously wait for the new season.
