Note: The following Annie Murphy interview discusses spoilers for “Black Mirror” Season 6 episode “Joan Is Awful.”“Black Mirror” Season 6 star Annie Murphy was stoked to film the memorable church scene in “Joan is Awful,” despite its “gnarly” nature.In the episode, an ordinary woman named Joan (Murphy) is shocked to discover a dramatized version of her life has become the subject of a new TV show on popular streaming service Streamberry, with Joan portrayed by Salma Hayek (who is playing herself). Except, instead of the real Hayek, it’s a computer-generated likeness licensed out by the “From Dusk Til Dawn” actress.Joan learns that she has no legal recourse after signing her rights away by accepting the terms and conditions of the app, and takes another route to solving the problem by doing something outrageous in hopes that Hayek objects to her image being used in such a way.Cue the church scene.

There is one huge one that I had to come to terms with, and made me ask myself, ‘Do I really want to do this? Am I going to get in trouble?’’”‘Joan Is Awful’ co-stars Michael Cera, Ben Barnes and Rob Delaney.

Black Mirror has arrived on Netflix to mostly positive reviews, with critics describing the new episodes as “thrilling” and “scathing and sadistic as ever”.Charlie Brooker’s dystopian sci-fi anthology series returned with five new episodes yesterday (June 15), which were previously described as the “most unpredictable, unclassifiable and unexpected yet”.Many reviews have praised Brooker’s winning formula of twists and turns while also recognising some fresh new approaches. “Expect incredible turns from Paapa Essedieu, Salma Hayek and Aaron Paul – even if this isn’t its best season,” critic Lucy Mangan wrote in a four-star review for The Guardian.“Netflix’s perversely prescient dystopian drama will once again ruthlessly mine your existential angst,” she wrote, though cast some doubt over whether any new additions will “stick in the mind” as much as the series’ most loved and maligned episodes.Empire Magazine also awarded the new series four stars, adding that it “eases you into” a somewhat fresh approach from Brooker.

As Netflix viewers finished tuning into the first episode of Black Mirror's new season, many soon took to social media to make the same comment.

Salma Hayek admitted she was reluctant about being a part of the "Black Mirror" cast.  In Season 6 of the dystopian, sci-fi drama series, Hayek said she was afraid the "disgusting" and "grotesque" scenes she acted in would be largely criticized by viewers.  "There are so many moments that shocked me in the script.There is one huge one that I had to come to terms with, and made me ask myself, ‘Do I really want to do this? Am I going to get in trouble?’" Hayek said during a cover story interview for Radio Times, according to the Independent.  The 56-year-old actress portrays a character on "Black Mirror" that is a non-famous version of herself who is shocked by a streaming platform’s launch of a new drama based on her life.  "It’s as if I created an alter ego where I could do the most disgusting, grotesque things that you would never do in real life… and have permission to do that." Despite Hayek’s fears that she would get in "trouble" for her "Black Mirror" role, she confessed she enjoyed working on the popular television series.  "It’s been absurd and a lot of fun. It’s a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to play an interpretation of myself," Hayek added.
