Black Mirror is about to get under our skin again. Netflix released first-look images and a trailer that teases reality-altering AI gadgets, odd activities aboard the USS Callister and blood. Season 7 of Black Mirror premieres on the streaming service on April 10 and features six episodes.
During Netflix's Geeked Week last year, the streamer and show creator Charlie Brooker dropped a few details about what's next for the hit anthology series, hinting that things will be "deeply unpleasant" and "your anxiety will be tickled."
