Here's The First Trailer For 'Black Mirror' Season 4

The new season is debuting "later this year."

People kiss. People fight. People hurtle through an asteroid field in a spaceship. These may or may not all be parts of the typical human condition, but they’re definitely components of the new trailer for the fourth season of “Black Mirror.”

Netflix just debuted their first teaser for the upcoming new season, which a representative shared with HuffPost will be coming “later this year.” At the Edinburgh International TV Festival on Friday, Aug. 25, the streaming company also announced the episode titles.

After that initial announcement, the Netflix rep shared the episode titles, cast, director and writing credits in an email to HuffPost:

The episode titled “USS Callister” has perhaps the most intriguing cast as Plemons, Milioti, Simpson and Coel are all critical heavyweights in their own ways. That’s particularly interesting because their footage in the trailer looks to be the most ridiculous of the batch by far. 

Just look at Plemons’ goofy grin as he plays some sort of Captain Kirk character:
