- Summary:
- "The first official companion to the Emmy-winning Netflix cult-hit sci-fi television series that's fascinated millions of fans worldwide, with stunning visuals and never before seen behind-the-scenes content. What becomes of humanity when it's fed into the jaws of a hungry new digital machine? Discover the world of Black Mirror in this immersive, illustrated, oral history. This first official book logs the entire Black Mirror journey, from its origins in creator Charlie Brooker's mind to its current status as one of the biggest cult TV shows to emerge from the UK. Alongside a collection of astonishing behind-the-scenes imagery and ephemera, Brooker and producer Annabel Jones will detail the creative genesis, inspiration, and thought process behind each film for the first time, while key actors, directors and other creative talents relive their own involvement"-- Provided by publisher.
- Told oral-history style, the book includes the voices of the many collaborators, such as Bryce Dallas Howard, Jon Hamm, Jodie Foster, Jodie Whittaker, Mackenzie Davis, Gugu Mbatha-Raw, Alex Lawther, Letitia Wright, and dozens more. Making boundary-pushing television isn't easy. Each stand-alone episode is a challenging leap into the unknown for the viewer--and the creators. This is the definitive and unfiltered account of how they did it.
