The trailer for the forthcoming season, which will consist of three episodes, features pop singer Miley Cyrus, Fleabag’s Andrew Scott, and Avengers: Endgame actor Anthony Mackie.
Other actors who will appear in the anthology series include Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, Topher Grace, Damson Idris, Nicole Beharie, Pom Klementieff, Angourie Rice, Madison Davenport and Ludi Lin.
Charlie Brooker and Annabel Jones return as showrunners for the new season, which will debut on Netflix on the 5 June.
Last year, the choose-your-own-adventure Black Mirror episode Bandersnatch, starring Fionn Whitehead and Will Poulter, was released.
Brooker and Jones previously said that the “enormous” amount of work required on creating Bandersnatch’s many pathways meant that the remainder of season five had to be delayed.
The official synopsis for Black Mirror reads: “Black Mirror is an anthology series that taps into our collective unease with the modern world, with each stand-alone episode a sharp, suspenseful tale exploring themes of contemporary techno-paranoia leading to an unforgettable – and sometimes unsettling – conclusion.”
