The anticipated fifth season comes almost six months after Netflix dropped the "Black Mirror" interactive movie, "Bandersnatch," which featured multiple endings and over a trillion unique story permutations.
"Black Mirror: Bandersnatch" producer Annabel Jones said in December that "Black Mirror" season five was delayed because "Bandersnatch" took so long to make.
Below is everything we know about the fifth season of "Black Mirror":
