The first episode of season 4, directed by Jodie Foster, is coming soon.

Netflix&#39;s&nbsp;Black Mirror has breathed new life into the thriller genre, consistently churning out stories that bring technology-induced nightmares to life. Basically, it&#39;s a Twighlight Zone for the modern era.&nbsp;A new trailer has just been released for the show&#39;s upcoming fourth season, and it looks as chill-inducing as ever.&nbsp;

The first episode, titled &quot;Arkangel,&quot; is directed by none other than Jodie Foster (who has starred in her fair share of horror flicks). In the trailer, we see Rosemary DeWitt (La La Land) as a mother who freaks out after almost losing her daughter at a playground. The incident seems to inspire her to try out a new parenting method that involves her daughter, Sarah, being injected with some kind of substance that she&#39;s ensured is entirely safe (knowing this show, we can assure that it is not). The trailer then tells us that &quot;The key to good parenting is control,&quot; and that&#39;s all we get. One thing that makes this series so thought-provoking is how technology is never itself positioned as being evil, but rather something that tests us&nbsp;and (most often) brings out our worst qualities.

We say &quot;most often&quot; because it&#39;s&nbsp;not just the show&#39;s dark side that has earned it accolades; the heartwarming season three episode, &quot;San Junipeiro,&quot; about a lesbian couple seeking solace in an undisturbed eternity together&nbsp;is what nabbed the series two Emmys this year. Given the popularity of that story, we&#39;re hoping that the upcoming season&#39;s six episodes might include one or two lighter archs.&nbsp;

Black Mirror&#39;s official season four&nbsp;premiere date has yet to be announced, but it should be soon. In the meantime, watch the trailer for yourself below.
