Here's something to brighten up your Summer: Black Mirror is returning for a fifth season! Not only have we already gotten a chilling trailer and a handful of images from the three new episodes, but we also have a pretty good idea of who's starring. From familiar faces like Miley Cyrus and Anthony Mackie, to up-and-comers like Damson Idris and Angourie Rice, take a look at everyone you can expect to see in season five, ahead.
The pop star is returning to her acting roots with an unidentified role in Black Mirror's fifth season. Although information about her character is slim to none, the trailer reveals that she's a famous singer about to perform for 20,000 fans. She doesn't look too happy about it, though.
Pom Klementieff (Avengers: Endgame) faces off against an opponent in what looks like the inside of a Mortal Kombat-style video game.
The man Klementieff's character goes toe-to-toe with is played by Ludi Lin, who you might know from Power Rangers and Aquaman. We can't wait to see how their fight scene fits into the rest of the season.
Anthony Mackie (Avengers: Endgame) is starring in the season's first episode, "Striking Vipers." From the tiny bit of footage we've seen, he plays a man in an unfulfilling marriage who might get himself into some trouble with another woman.
The Aquaman star appears alongside Mackie in "Striking Vipers" as . . . well, we don't know who he's playing yet. But he's either a brother or close friend of Mackie's character, since they'll appear in flashbacks together as well as the present day.
The Sleepy Hollow actress appears to be playing the wife of Mackie's character, and can be seen asking him what's wrong — With their marriage? Their lives? — in the trailer.
Yet another star of the MCU is in this season of Black Mirror: Angourie Rice, who you might've seen playing Betty in Spider-Man: Homecoming. Now, she'll star as a young high school outcast who finds solace in a doll that has artificial intelligence. Perhaps the episode is titled "Child's Play"?
The Sharp Objects actress appears to be costarring with Rice as a friend (or classmate?) who figures out that the tiny, eager robot isn't exactly a force for good.
After playing a villain slightly off his rocker in Sherlock, Andrew Scott appears to be taking on yet another unhinged character. He can be seen waving a gun and ranting about people being addicted to their phones in the trailer, which also hints that he might have lost a loved one (Partner? Sister? Friend?) to some phone-related incident.
The Snowfall star plays a hostage taken by Scott's character, and is pictured in the backseat of his car with his hands bound.
Topher Grace's cameo in the trailer is by far the most confusing. How will his character — who has a messy man-bun, seems to be living in a small desert compound, and prefers to wear a white bathrobe — be woven in with the rest of the cast?
