We finally have our first look at the new season of Black Mirror

Black Mirror Season 5

It’s been a while since we’ve been reminded that technology is inevitably going to be the reason we all die.

But despite the negative message that practically every single episode of Black Mirror has (except one), you can bet your ass we’ll be binge-watching it the second it’s released.

It was back in December of 2017 that the most recent season of the Netflix series came out (Bandersnatch doesn’t count), so we’ve been craving some top quality sci-fi drama.

And Entertainment Weekly have shared an image from a new episode of the show, where we see Anthony Mackie (Avengers: Endgame) and Yahya Abdul-Mateen II (Aquaman) facing off on a rainy street.

You can see the image here.

That’s right, the new Captain America will be playing a role in the new season.

Co-creator of the show Charlie Brooker is said to have described this episode as “the Marvel/DC crossover no-one saw coming”.

What the episode is about, or when it will be released, remains a secret for now, but we would imagine it will be around Christmas, based on previous seasons.

All we know so far is that Mackie and Abdul-Mateen will be starring, and that Miley Cyrus has heavily implied that she will feature in the show at some stage.

As if we weren’t excited enough…
