Watch the first trailer for 'Black Mirror' season three
The future looks bleaker than ever.
The third season of Charlie Brooker's dark, technology-infused drama Black Mirror is almost upon us. The show is known for its bleak but surprisingly believable depictions of the future, where society has pursued revelatory technologies -- only to discover some unsettling consequences. The show started on Channel 4 in the UK, but has since been picked up by Netflix for season three. The first proper trailer dropped today, teasing some of the storylines that will play out in each of the six episodes. There are plenty of familiar faces, including Bryce Dallas Howard (Jurassic World), Jerome Flynn (Game of Thrones) and Michael Kelly (House of Cards).
The first batch of episodes will drop on October 21st. Netflix has commissioned 12 episodes, however, so a second set -- which most people are now referring to as season four -- will be released at a later date.
