“ San Junipero ” was one of the standouts of Black Mirror ’s fourth season — not just for its wildly clever turn on modern technological culture , but for its uncharacteristically sensitive plot about the kinds of powerful relationship that applied science can help oneself foster between hoi polloi .
In a late consultation withThe Hollywood Reporter , Black Mirror Almighty Charlie Brooker expressed that he was more than open to the idea of revisit the not - too - far - off future tense of “ San Junipero , ” in which human consciousnesses are upload to massive server where they ’re able to survive out rich lives in multiple virtual realities .
Brooker sound out that he and the rest of Black Mirror ’s originative team had contemplate what a follow - up to “ San Junipero ” might look like . or else of persist in the original two characters ’ story , it could research other aspect of that populace . When pressed , Brooker described thing about the original history that he cut out of the instalment ’s early playscript :
There were aspects of the story that I took out . For instance , I ’d originally written a scene where Gugu ’s character , Kelly , is in a kindergarten and there are fry there and when you realize what ’s going on , it ’s that these are deceased children . It was too pitiful and too affecting of a musical note to hit in that write up , but I maintain thinking about how that felt like a whole world in and of itself . I retrieve we almost might do it in a completely different mannikin if we were doing a straight sequel , if that makes sense . peradventure not even as a normal episode .
Brooker was somewhat cagy about just what an non-“normal episode ” of Black Mirror focus on San Junipero and its citizens might look like , but he and executive producer Annabel Jones hinted that there might be Easter egg gesture to the report in other episodes of the serial .
Black Mirror ’s fourth series does n’t have a premier date yet , but it ’s coming soon .
