One of the five possible endings to the “Black Mirror” movie takes things to a insanely meta degree.

One of the five endings to “Black Mirror: Bandersnatch” contains a twist that is more or less a meta joke that brings the 1984-set story into the 21st century. The conclusion finds Fionn Whitehead’s aspiring video game creator Stefan being told by Dr. Haynes (Alice Lowe) that a higher power is pulling the strings of his life, and that power happens to be the Netflix viewer. Bringing Netflix into “Bandersnatch” might have seemed like an initiative from the streaming executives, but that’s hardly how the twist ending was created.
“It was our idea,” “Black Mirror” co-creator Charlie Brooker recently told The Wrap, denying Netflix had anything to do with touting its own product in “Bandersnatch.” “And it came about genuinely as a consequence of us talking it all through. As we were working out ways the story could go, we thought, ‘Well, you know, this is about somebody who becomes aware that there is somebody there controlling them.’ So there’s going to be a moment where he turns around and goes, ‘Who is it? Who is there?’”
