It's been more than 2 years since Black Mirror Season 5 premiered on Netflix, and despite its stellar reception from critics and millions of fans, the sci-fi dystopian anthology still hasn't been officially renewed for a sixth season, and now, fans are wondering if the streaming giant will release new episodes this year.
Created by Charlie Brooker, Black Mirror showcases mind-blowing science fiction stories in a Twilight Zone-style format, featuring talented stars, resulting in one absolutely unique experience. Booker first created the series for Channel 4 before making its way to Netflix for Seasons 3-5.
Netflix also released an interactive film Bandersnatch, and the entire series has seen an impressive line-up of big name stars, including Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, Oona Chaplin, Haley Atwell, Domhnall Gleeson, Miley Cyrus, Letitia Wright, Hannah John-Kammen, Jesse Plemons, Will Poulter, among others.
Will Black Mirror Season 6 be released in November 2022?
No, as of right now, there are no clear signs that Black Mirror Season 6 will arrive on Netflix in 2022, and it's not included in the streamer's list of films and TV shows coming in November 2022.
Netflix already confirmed that Black Mirror Season 6 is coming, Variety first reported.
In January 2020, Charlie Brooker and Annabell Jones, the original showrunners of Black Mirror, announced they were departing the show's production company with Endemol Shine group owning the rights to the show. Since then, Brooker and Jones have formed a new production company called Broke and Bones, which has a deal with Netflix for other projects.

Black Mirror's future seems to depend on the creator's ability to make new stories. Brooker also said, “I imagine if we run out of ideas, we will stop.”
