For over a decade, fans worldwide have been captivated by Netflix’s Black Mirror and now, we’re about to get Season Seven!
In an announcement released on March 15, the streaming giant revealed that the next instalment will be dropping in 2025 — and this time, with a nostalgic twist!
While the new season once again promises six individual episodes, only five will be brand-new story arcs, with the sixth a follow-up to the critically acclaimed sci-fi adventure USS Callister from Season Four.
Also teased at Next on Netflix in London, the streamer teased: “Robert Daly is dead, but for the crew of the USS Callister, their problems are just beginning.”
Accompanying the official announcement online, Netflix released a 28-second teaser in Black Mirror’s creepy/techy/futuristic style, which literally gave nothing…

USS Callister refresher
USS Callister was released in December 2017 and was written by Charlie Brooker and William Bridges.
Starring Jesse Plemons, a reclusive programmer (Robert Daly) who co-founded a massively popular multiplayer online game.
Daly’s inner turmoil leads him to craft a parallel realm reminiscent of Star Trek, with a twist. In this virtual space, he commandeers the USS Callister, populated by digital versions of his colleagues, replicated from their very DNA.
Before long, Nanette Cole (Cristin Milioti), who is new to the gaming company, stirs up a revolt against the Captain and what ensues is a gripping uprising, challenging the very fabric of Daly’s digital dominion.
Black Mirror will return to Netflix with Season Seven in 2025.
