The dystopian series "Black Mirror" is one of Netflix's most-watched programs.

The American media "Variety" announces that the film and series streaming platform is preparing a new season of its flagship series.

It has been three years since "Black Mirror" aired new episodes. 

It's a return that's as scary as it is exciting: 

Black Mirror 

is getting a sixth season.

This series, broadcast on the Netflix film and series streaming platform, plunges each episode into a new dystopian universe where technology has taken precedence over our humanity.

The fifth season was in 2019, so fans of the program have been waiting for three years.

Good news: this new season should have more episodes than the previous one, which only had three.

A welcome return in a difficult context

At the helm of the next episodes of

Black Mirror

, we find the same creators and producers as for previous seasons.

Their ambition is to make "more cinematic" episodes, according to the American magazine

Variety

, which reveals the information for season 6. 

The air date for the new season of

Black Mirror 

has yet to be announced.

And it wouldn't be for now, because the teams are only at the casting stage.

This return is in any case good news, because Netflix has rather announced recently the cessation of projects (such as the series 

Funny 

and that of Meghan Markle) to deal with financial difficulties.
