Salma Hayek has admitted that she was worried about playing herself in the new season of Black Mirror.The actress appears in the sixth season of Charlie Brooker’s dystopian anthology series, starring in an episode titled ‘Joan Is Awful’.In the episode, a woman named Joan (Annie Murphy) learns that her life has been turned into a TV show on a Netflix-style streaming service, with Salma Hayek playing her.Speaking to Radio Times about her role, Hayek said that Black Mirror had gifted her “a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to play an interpretation of myself”.“I got to explore the concepts and clichés people have about me and be self-deprecating,” she said.“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.”Hayek added: “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?’’”‘Joan Is Awful’ co-stars Michael Cera, Ben Barnes and Rob Delaney.

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.

After hearing early demos from Kid Cudi, director Fletcher Moules knew he could connect with the vision of bringing a visual album to life through animation. Serving as an animated companion piece to Kid Cudi’s album of the same name, Entergalactic follows street artist Jabari (Cudi) as he is on the cusp of bringing his art to life in comics. His life changes when he falls for his neighbor Meadow (Jessica Williams), a photographer about to stage an exhibition. It was important for Moules that this special be a character-driven concept album, rather than one long music video, so the story and animation style were essential to get right.
