The big red N is finally pulling the plug on one of its most daring ventures with news that Black Mirror's interactive movie, Bandersnatch, which came with multiple endings, is set to be removed from Netflix. On May 12, it and Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt: Kimmy vs. The Reverend will disappear from the streaming service. The Black Mirror one-off movie departs just after the seventh season of the show was released on Netflix, which included an episode featuring characters that made their original appearance in Bandersnatch.
The 'Plaything' episode of season 7 saw the return of Will Poulter's character from Bandersnatch, Colin Ritman, who, a decade after the events of the interactive instalment, comes up with a new game idea of Thronglets. Bandersnatch was the final batch of 24 interactive titles that appeared on the streaming service, which began slowly getting phased out since November 2024. At the time, The Verge was told by the company that the venture had “served its purpose, but is now limiting as we focus on technological efforts in other areas.”
