Meet the cast of Black Mirror's interactive film Bandersnatch
Fionn Whitehead, Will Poulter and Asim Chaudhry lead the 'choose your own adventure' episode
Netflix's groundbreaking interactive film, Black Mirror: Bandersnatch, has arrived.
The drama, a stopgap between seasons four and five of Charlie Brooker's sci-fi anthology series, revolves around a young game developer called Stefan who, in the course of adapting a choose-your-own adventure book called Bandersnatch into a video game, realises he is losing his free will.
Brooker puts the viewer in control, allowing them to choose Stefan's path, which can diverge into five different endings, each of which has several variations.
The cast is stacked with British talent, like Dunkirk's Fionn Whitehead, and The Revenant's Will Poulter. Find out everything you need to know about the cast below.
