Netflix to revive Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt for one-off interactive episode

A one-off interactive episode of Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt is set to debut on Netflix next year. 

The format is set to replicate that of Black Mirror: Bandersnatch, which premiered in December of last year, with viewers here able to make choices on behalf of the characters of Kimmy Schmidt and unlock different story branches. 

Ellie Kemper, Tituss Burgess, Jane Krakowski, and Carol Kane are all set to return. Co-creator and executive producer Tina Fey said the special “will be a great way to officially complete the series”. 

The fourth and final season of the show was released in January of this year. 

Alongside Bandersnatch, Netflix also debuted You vs Wild last month, an interactive original starring Bear Grylls. The streaming service originally debuted the format with several shows for children. 

The episode is set to be released at some point in 2020.
