Black Mirror releases Netflix series five trailer starring Miley Cyrus and Andrew Scott

Black Mirror has released the full trailer for the upcoming series five and it is jam-packed with famous faces.

Many will recognise Andrew Scott from his stints in Fleabag as the 'hot priest' and as the unhinged Moriarty in Sherlock; he appears as someone unhinged by the effects technology on society.

There's Marvel superhero Anthony Mackie starring alongside Aquaman star Yahya Abdul-Mateen II in a period set episode.

Miley Cyrus becomes an avatar robot in what one fan has dubbed the "TikTok cosplayer" episode.

Fans were thrilled to learn that the three-episode series will land on Netlix on June 5th.

The series also sees appearances from Spider-Man 3 actor Topher Grace, Nicole Beharie, Damson Idris, Pom Klementieff, Angourie Rice, Madison Davenport and Ludi Lin.

The tagline for series five reads: "Five Groundbreaking. Seasons. Three. All-New Stories. One Future.

Popstar Miley confirmed she was appearing in the series back in December after her sister Brandi revealed she'd been staying with her during filming in South Africa.

During an appearance on The Howard Stern Show Miley confirmed the news in a roundabout way: "If you guess it, then I will shake my head ‘yes'.”

All of the episodes focus on technology which has been an ongoing thread in all five series of the Netflix anthology series.

Each stand-alone episode shows how technology can affect marriages, self-esteem, fame, social media and mental health in an unsettling future.

It taps into the collective unease with the modern world and explores contemporary techno-paranoia.

Without questioning it, technology has transformed all aspects of our lives; in every home; on every desk; in every palm - a plasma screen; a monitor; a Smartphone – a Black Mirror reflecting our 21st Century existence back at us.

The series is created and written by Charlie Brooker, and executive produced by Brooker and Annabel Jones.

Netflix most recently released Bandersnatch a standalone interactive film as part of the Black Mirror universe.

The complex nature of filming alternative scenes over two years meant series five was delayed.
