With production on Charlie Brooker’s Black Mirror Christmas Special set to get underway this week, Channel 4 has announced that Jon Hamm (Mad Men), Rafe Spall (What If) and Oona Chaplin (Game of Thrones) have all been cast in the feature-length episode.
“I am beyond thrilled to be a part of the Black Mirror Christmas Special,” states Hamm. “I have been a massive fan of the show since its inception. Its dark humour and intelligent observation of our society and values hooked me deeply as a viewer and I’m honoured that Charlie and the rest of the creative team have asked me to participate in wishing everyone a very Merry Christmas.”
The special episode of the anthology series will feature three interweaving stories of “Yuletide techno-paranoia”, and is set to air this Christmas on Channel 4.
