Miley Cyrus confirms ‘Black Mirror’ appearance—sort of

Not much is known about the upcoming season of Black Mirror. However, it looks like Miley Cyrus is set to make some sort of appearance in the tech-driven sci-fi show.

The singer joined Howard Stern for his Sirius XM show earlier today where she chatted about her upcoming Saturday Night Live appearance and ran through “Silent Night” with Stern’s co-host Robin Quivers.

In addition to music, Cyrus also discussed the Malibu fire that destroyed her home, Billboard reports. She went over the plethora of things she lost—wigs, Elvis memorabilia, handwritten lyrics and more—and mentioned she wasn’t home when it happened.

Cyrus stated she was out of town filming in South Africa, confirming previous rumors she was in Cape Town on the Black Mirror set. However, Cyrus wouldn’t blatantly state what she was filming for Black Mirror while on Stern’s show.

“If you guess it, then I will shake my head ‘yes,’” she tells Stern. He then revealed to his listeners that she confirmed the news. However, Cyrus explained she hasn’t actually stated the series’ name as she hasn’t been given clearance to speak about her role.

Stern then pointed to Lady Gaga’s success with A Star Is Born, which led to asking Cyrus if she could be making a serious return to acting following her iconic childhood roles.

“I’m really actually excited for everyone to watch the ‘headshaking project’ we said yes to [before],” she says. “The minute I say I never want to do something again, all of a sudden, there I am.”

Cyrus then revealed she’s hard at work on her upcoming album and “hates everything” in retrospect, but Black Mirror gave her a new perspective.

“I hate everything, but it was the first time I’ve left somewhere feeling really proud of my work…but you know if I like it that might mean it’s horrible,” she says.

More on Black Mirror Season five

Netflix acquired the series from Channel 4 in 2015 and planned to release 12 new episodes. The streaming giant dropped two seasons with six episodes each.

The third season debuted in Oct. 2016 and the fourth season in Dec. 2017. Netflix then renewed the series for a fifth season, announcing the news via Twitter.

Since then, not much has been revealed about the season including how many episodes or when it will air. Earlier this month, rumors began swirling that the series would debut Dec. 28 thanks to leaked information.

A verified Netflix Twitter account, @NXOnNetflix, posted “A perfectly balanced December” with an image of upcoming releases. While it has since been deleted, a screenshot shows Black Mirror: Bandersnatch is set to air Dec. 28.

At this time, Netflix has neither confirmed nor denied the information.
