It was already announced that Black Mirror<\/em> season 7 would be giving us<\/a> a high-profile sequel to one of its biggest episodes, 2017\u2019s Star Trek-inflected \u201cUSS Callister\u201d<\/a>. But the season 7 trailer<\/a> \u2014 released by Netflix along with episode titles, cast info, and more on Monday \u2014 teased another<\/em> sequel episode: a follow-up to the 2018 interactive episode Bandersnatch<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n

The episode, titled \u201cPlaything,\u201d follows an eccentric elderly man (Peter Capaldi) who\u2019s tied to an unusual video game from the 1990s with a bunch of cute little yellow dudes \u2014 and an unsolved murder. There\u2019s not much about how the game relates back to Bandersnatch<\/a><\/em>, but in the credits is Will Poulter, once again playing Colin Ritman. The fact that the episode is so tied to the 1990s is intriguing, too; will \u201cPlaything\u201d confirm what the \u201creal\u201d ending of Bandersnatch<\/em> was<\/a>?<\/p>\n

Of course, that\u2019s far from the only guest star of note. Across the six episodes of season 7, Black Mirror<\/em> is bringing in Rashida Jones, Tracee Ellis Ross, Issa Rae, Emma Corrin, Awkwafina, Harriet Walter, and Paul Giamatti. The \u201cUSS Callister\u201d sequel (titled \u201cUSS Callister: Into Infinity\u201d) will also bring back Cristin Milioti, Jimmi Simpson, Billy Magnussen, Osy Ikhile, Milanka Brooks, and Paul G. Raymond.<\/p>\n

Black Mirror<\/em> season 7 premieres on Netflix on April 10. <\/p>\n
