Black Mirror, the sci-fi anthology series that eerily parallels real life, is creating intrigue for its newest season with customized billboards across the UK. The first episode of Black Mirror Season 6, Joan is Awful, portrays a cautionary tale about reading terms and conditions online when one woman realizes that her life is actively being adapted and broadcast as a television series on a streaming service called Streamberry. In the show, the main character played by Annie Murphy sees events from her own life dramatized by an AI-generated Salma Hayek.
Black Mirror is giving fans their own chance to have their own billboards created in their likeness online and see them set up in real life. Across social media, Black Mirror is sharing these billboard images, and fans are submitting their own images to see themselves on them.
