Following Black Mirror Season 7's Epic Casting News, There Are Two Actors I Desperately Want In The Same Episode

As a seasoned gamer of life who’s navigated through countless virtual worlds and storylines, I can confidently say that the announcement of Black Mirror‘s Season 7 cast has me more excited than a level-up in World of Warcraft. The roster Netflix unveiled is nothing short of a gaming cheat code, with heavy hitters like Tracee Ellis Ross, Chris O’Dowd, and Emma Corrin joining the ranks.


Amidst the vast expanse of knowledge yet to be filled in the 2024 TV schedule, there are still some disappointments that continually surface. For instance, the realization that Black Mirror Season 7 won’t air until an undisclosed timeframe in 2025. However, ever-generous Netflix has unveiled an incredibly talented cast for the next installment of dystopian satire, promising a mix of laughter, tears, and shock that we can hardly wait for. This announcement has sparked a strong desire within me to see two particular actors face off in the same episode of this upcoming anthology series.

Behold, Black Mirror’s Stacked Season 7 Cast

I’m not going too far in praising the wording here, as the Netflix roster they’ve just revealed is truly impressive and, quite literally, it’s a well-organized list. Among other familiar faces from the Black Mirror team, there are stars like Tracee Ellis Ross, Chris O’Dowd, and Emma Corrin. Check out this mysterious video for yourself and see if you can spot any of these names:

It’s challenging not to be intrigued by the prospect of seeing all these actors from Season 7 together in a single full-length movie set within the Black Mirror universe. However, given its reputation for thought-provoking, self-contained tales that maintain their impact, it might also make sense for the stories to continue focusing on individual narratives while showcasing each actor’s talent.

I’m really excited now to imagine a potential epic encounter between the newcomers, Paul Giamatti and Peter Capaldi, in an extraordinary hypothetical episode.

Why A Potential Paul Giamatti And Peter Capaldi Black Mirror Episode Excites Me

I frequently find myself reminiscing about the initial viewing of “Black Mirror’s” episode “Beyond The Sea,” particularly the intense confrontation between Aaron Paul and Josh Hartnett. That episode is truly unforgettable, showcasing one of the series’ most impactful instances where exploring its darker aspects results in a significant payoff.

Having Peter Capaldi and Paul Giamatti team up in another project is almost like having a tasty treat now. On the other hand, it would be delightful to see them use their talents in a funnier, more playful comedy.

Given that Giamatti’s casting in the latest “Hostel” series is likely to fuel his desire for more horror roles, following Capaldi’s demonstrated dark side in shows like “The Devil’s Hour” and “Criminal Record”, it seems plausible that a project that combines elements of both terror and humor could be an excellent fit for these two talented actors.

It’s possible we could witness the appearance of a potential new star from “Star Trek: Starfleet Academy” and the Twelfth Doctor from “Doctor Who” in the highly anticipated follow-up to “USS Callister”, a project that Cristin Milioti and Jimmi Simpson are likely involved with. To my mind, this casting choice would make an already enticing sequel even more unmissable.

While it’s important to acknowledge, Black Mirror is the kind of streaming series I wouldn’t want to miss, given Charlie Brooker’s sci-fi anthology has earned its reputation for vividly portraying future warnings. Regrettably, I must share that as of now, Black Mirror Season 7 is being put together and we can expect it to premiere sometime in the year 2025.

While you wait, you can stream all six previous seasons on Netflix, assuming your subscription is active. If you haven’t done so yet, I strongly advise you to explore the interactive episode titled “Bandersnatch.” The Tuckersoft references in the latest cast announcement might hold clues about that mysterious in-universe company, and it’s exciting to speculate if they somehow relate to Capaldi and Giamatti working together.
