Season 6 Teaser Confirms June Release; First Looks at Salma Hayek Pinault, Aaron Paul, and More

"Black Mirror" is returning — and much sooner than you would imagine.

Charlie Brooker's hit sitcom will return for Season 6 in June, according to Netflix.

Once again, the show features a slew of great acting talent. Aaron Paul, Anjana Vasan, Annie Murphy, Auden Thornton, Ben Barnes, Clara Rugaard, Daniel Portman, Danny Ramirez, Himesh Patel, John Hannah, Josh Hartnett, Kate Mara, Michael Cera, Monica Dolan, Myha'la Herrold, Paapa Essiedu, Rob Delaney, Rory Culkin, Salma Hayek Pinault, Samuel Blenkin, and Zazie Beetz are among the cast members this season.

A season trailer (see below) promises the same degree of dysfunction, depravity, and dystopia that fans have grown to anticipate and enjoy from Brooker over the last decade. Season 6 appears to be significantly more brutal than previous seasons, with noticeably greater production values and a more theatrical scope.

Another new addition to the production team is "Ms. Marvel" showrunner Bisha K. Ali, who joins Brooker, long-time producing partner Annabel Jones, and Jessica Rhoades as executive producers. The show is the first season of "Black Mirror" produced by Brooker and Jones' new production company Broke & Bones. Rights holders Banijay Rights licenced the format to Netflix.

Brooker, who created and wrote Season 6, elaborated on the show's comeback via Netflix fan site Tudum.com, admitting that he's broken several of his own rules for the new episodes.

While "Black Mirror" episodes have traditionally been stand-alones, Brooker suggests that Season 6 will be different. According to the plot synopsis, "the sixth season of 'Black Mirror' is the most unpredictable, unclassifiable, and unexpected yet."

"I've always felt that 'Black Mirror' should feature stories that are completely different from one another, and keep surprising people (and myself)," she says. Brooker stated. "It should be a series that defies categorization and can keep reinventing itself."

"So, partly as a challenge, and partly to keep things interesting for both me and the viewer, I started this season by purposefully upending some of my own core assumptions about what to expect." As a result, this time, in addition to some of the more familiar 'Black Mirror' cliches, we've got a few new components, including those I'd previously sworn blind the show would never do, to expand the bounds of what 'a Black Mirror episode' even is."

The stories are "still tonally 'Black Mirror' through-and-through," according to Brooker, but they contain some "crazy swings and more variety" than ever before.

"And bringing it all to life, we've got an incredible lineup of disgustingly skilled, smart directors working with a cast of actors who, frankly, have no right to exist." I can't wait for people to binge it all and hope they enjoy it - especially the parts they shouldn't."

"Black Mirror" would return after a three-year absence. According to a source close to the production, the latest season is even more cinematic in scope, with each installment treated as a standalone feature.

"Black Mirror" premiered on Channel 4 in the United Kingdom in 2011 and ran for two seasons before being picked up by Netflix. The concept became a global success on the streaming service, with big-budget, celebrity-laden episodes like "San Junipero" and "USS Callister" pushing the show's dark core to stratospheric heights and winning a plethora of prizes in the process.
