Murphy insisted, “I kid you not. We wrapped and then went up to Charlie Brooker right away, and we were like, ‘So if you’re interested in writing a buddy comedy for us, we would be open to it.’ “And he did not seem that that’s something that he wanted to do.

But if anyone else out there is open to a buddy comedy with me and Salma Hayek, please, we’re begging you.” “Black Mirror” season 6 is on Netflix now.
