‘Black Mirror’ Season 4 Spoilers: Charlie Brooker Hints Episodes to Have Comic Elements, Indie Drama & More
"Black Mirror" Season 4 is now in the works and little details about the anthology series are now emerging. The science fiction drama recently had John Hillcoat to direct one episode as the show's creator Charlie Brooker talked about the production.
Charlie Brooker confirmed that the new episodes of "Black Mirror" Season 4 are now currently filming. However, other parts of the television series are still being written. In an interview with The Daily Telegraph, the 45-year-old satirist revealed that the production of the third episode is about to start in Iceland.
"If we were trying to predict the real world, we'd have to think about where the real world's going to be in another six months or so," he said. Charlie Brooker also hinted that "Black Mirror" Season 4 might lead to "disgrace or war" and the idea makes him scared.
Although Charlie Brooker doesn't want to go into details, he just teased that each episode of "Black Mirror" Season 4 will be "strikingly different" in tone and style. "We've got one that's overtly comic, much more overtly comic than anything we've done," he said.
Charlie Brooker also added "Black Mirror" Season 4 has "fairly mainstream comic elements," although it will also have some "unpleasant stuff." Meanwhile, aside from the confirmation that Jodie Foster is coming to direct an episode, which will be like an "indie drama," John Hillcoat is also coming.
John Hillcoat, who has been known for doing movies with nasty and awful scenes, will also be doing an episode of "Black Mirror" Season 4. According to Slash Film, the chapter he will be doing has a title "Crocodile.".
Although the details about it are still scarce, some say that "Crocodile" is the story of the women. Allegedly, one of them could be played by the "Nocturnal Animals" star Andrea Riseborough. "Black Mirror" Season 4 is expected to be released this 2017 on Netflix.
