'Black Mirror' releases 'Bandersnatch' trailer — and it's intense
Time to update those holiday plans — there’s some streaming to do.
According to the new trailer just dropped by Netflix, Bandersnatch — the latest Black Mirror installment that’s being billed as an “event” — will be released on the streaming service on Friday. And judging by the footage just shared, it’s going to be an intense, pill-popping and mind-bending ride.
Dunkirk’s Fionn Whitehead and Will Poulter (The Revenant) lead the cast, playing employees of a computer games “hit factory.” Their latest project is an adventure game inspired by Bandersnatch, a book written by Jerome F. Davies, a mad genius who may have chopped off his wife’s head.
Davies fan Whitehead gets sucked into the project, and the glimpses of pills and cryptic VHS tapes — all while Frankie Goes to Hollywood’s “Relax” blasts — suggests trippy and sinister times ahead.
