March 14 (UPI) -- Netflix announced Season 7 of Black Mirror on Thursday. The new season premieres in 2025.

A teaser video includes the theme song to "U.S.S. Callister" and a digital image of the ship. Netflix announced one of Season 7's episodes will be a sequel to that episode.

Season 7 will have six total episodes. The other five will be unrelated anthology episodes.

Black Mirror is a dark science-fiction anthology. "U.S.S. Callister" aired in Season 4 in 2017.

"U.S.S. Callister" was a takeoff on Star Trek about a spaceship crew. Jesse Plemons, Cristin Milioti, Jimmi Simpson, Michaela Coel, Billy Magnussen and the voice of Aaron Paul starred.
