Overview
- Netflix confirmed that production on Black Mirror Season 8 has begun, with filming starting this summer in the United Kingdom.
- Creator Charlie Brooker is credited as a writer and executive producer on the new season, with Bisha K. Ali listed as a writer and fellow executive producer.
- Additional production credits include executive producers Jessica Rhoades, Annabel Jones and Louise Sutton, co-executive producer Mark Kinsella, Broke and Bones as the production company, and Banijay Rights handling licensing.
- Crews were spotted at Hope Cove House in Devon, where the hotel was dressed as the 'Sandcastle Hotel' and Brooker was seen on location though he is not believed to be directing that shoot.
- Netflix announced the update alongside a slate of U.K. renewals—such as Legends and Being Gordon Ramsay—which underscores a broader strategy for British programming even as episode counts, casting and a release date remain unannounced.
