Black Mirror - USS Callister Trailer

USS Callister is one of Black Mirror’s most ambitious and unforgettable episodes, blending dark science fiction, psychological horror, and sharp satire inside a seemingly perfect space-adventure fantasy.

When gifted programmer Robert Daly creates a private digital universe inspired by his favorite classic sci-fi series, he populates it with virtual copies of the people around him. But beneath the colorful starships, heroic missions, and retro optimism lies something far more disturbing.

What begins as a playful tribute to classic science fiction quickly becomes a tense story about power, control, identity, and what happens when someone is given absolute authority over a world with no apparent consequences.

Starring Jesse Plemons, Cristin Milioti, Jimmi Simpson, and Michaela Coel, USS Callister is a clever, unsettling, and surprisingly emotional standout from Black Mirror.
