Netflix Confirms New Season of ‘Black Mirror’
Everyone’s favorite dystopian nightmare is cooking up new hellish predictions for the future. Netflix announced today that Black Mirror will be coming back for a seventh season. The newest season of Charlie Brooker’s (Dead Set) dark anthology will feature six episodes, one of which will take fans back to a beloved location.
Netflix provided a small teaser for hungry Black Mirror fans: “USS Callister will return… Robert Daly is dead, but for the crew of the USS Callister, their problems are just beginning,”
That’s right, we’re going back to the USS Callister. This Black Mirror episode follows a disgruntled programmer who creates a simulation of a Star Trek style game using his coworker’s DNA to create clone copies of his real-world coworkers.
This Emmy winning episode is inspired by a similarly themed The Twilight Zone episode, It’s a Good Life. This episode features a six year old boy who holds a small town hostage using their God like powers to control reality.
Black Mirror has won over audiences for delivering harsh truths about the impact of technology and where we may end up if we are not careful. It seems that in our ever changing world, the series is unlikely to run out of inspiration anytime soon.
That’s all the information we have about Black Mirror at this time. Make sure to check back here for news and updates.

Travis Kelce Joins Cast on Ryan Murphy’s ‘Grotesquerie’
Football star Travis Kelce is going Hollywood. At least that is what Dahmer Emmy award-winning star Niecy Nash-Betts announced on her Instagram page yesterday. She posted a video of herself on set of the new Ryan Murphy FX series Grotesquerie.
“This is what happens when WINNERS link up‼️ @killatrav Welcome to Grostequerie[sic]!” she wrote.
Standing just out of frame is Kelce who suddenly steps in to say, “Jumping into new territory with Niecy!” Nash-Betts appears to be in a hospital gown while Kelce is dressed as an orderly.
Not much is known about Grotesquerie, other than in literary terms it means a work filled with both science fiction and extreme horror elements. Think H.P. Lovecraft.
Back in February Murphy released an audio teaser for Grotesquerie on social media. In it, Nash-Betts says in part, “I don’t know when it started, I can’t put my finger on it, but it’s different now. There’s been a shift, like something’s opening up in the world — a kind of hole that descends into a nothingness…”
There hasn’t been an official synopsis released regarding Grotesquerie, but keep checking back to iHorror for further details.
