Jesse Armstrong wrote “The Entire History of You.”

The original seasons and Christmas special included TV and film stars like: Jessica Brown-FindlayRory Kinnear, Hayley AtwellDomhnall Gleeson, Toby KebbellOona Chaplin, and Jon Hamm.

Production on the new episodes is slated to begin in late 2015 in the UK.

Brooker had this to say about his new deal with Netflix:

“It’s all very exciting — a whole new bunch of Black Mirror episodes on the most fitting platform imaginable. Netflix connects us with a global audience so that we can create bigger, stranger, more international and diverse stories than before, whilst maintaining that ‘Black Mirror‘ feel. I just hope none of these new story ideas come true.”
