Earlier this month a now deleted tweet from an official Netflix account revealed Charlie Brooker‘s hit show Black Mirror would be returning for its fifth season on December 28. The leak also suggested the first episode of the highly-anticipated new season would be titled, “Bandersnatch.”
However, a new breakthrough suggests that “Bandersnatch” will most likely be a Black Mirror movie as opposed to an episode. Spotted by a Netflix user, the keen-eyed fan noticed the title card for “Bandersnatch,” revealing it to be a film and not an episode from the fifth season as earlier believed. Coming in at 90 mins, this will mark Black Mirror‘s longest piece yet.
A few pics from the “Bandersnatch” set have also started appearing on social media, showcasing a time-warped London. Look for Black Mirror: Bandersnatch to land on Netflix December 28.
Entertainer Miley Cyrus also confirmed her Black Mirror season 5 appearance during a recent interview on Howard Stern’s Sirius X show.
