Following weeks of rumours, Miley Cyrus has finally confirmed she will be featured in the new season of Black Mirror.

Cyrus confirmed the rumours to Howard Stern this morning, telling the talk show host that she is indeed involved with the upcoming fifth season of Charlie Brooker's hit Netflix series.

"If you guess it, then I will shake my head 'yes,'" Cyrus told Stern [via Billboard] when he asked about the Black Mirror rumours.

Stern then revealed Cyrus confirmed her Black Mirror role, though the singer/actress said she was not allowed to mention Black Mirror by name.

"I'm really actually excited for everyone to watch the 'headshaking project' we said yes to [before]," she told Stern cryptically. "The minute I say I never want to do something again, all of a sudden, there I am."

She continued, "I hate everything, but it was the first time I've left somewhere feeling really proud of my work... but you know if I like it that might mean it's horrible."

Cyrus also promised she plays her Black Mirror role "with a lot of dynamic" and that there are a "lot of different sides" to her character.

"There's a lot of dimension to it, and actually it was while the devastation of Malibu was happening, and it was a really weird learning experience for me, because I was so far from home and the show is already really dark, and it's already kind of eerie when you're there the whole time," she said. "But I learned a lot about myself and I think I was able to kind of use that and put that into it."

This isn't the only Black Mirror rumour to spring up this month. As recently reported, a Netflix account tweeted a release date for what looks like a new episode of the show. It was listed as December 28, 2018, though Netflix has since deleted the post and still not confirmed any premiere date.

Earlier today, Netflix also announced its January schedule, and while there was still no sign of Black Mirror's return, we're still holding on hope it may arrive in 2018.

As for Cyrus, she recently teamed up with Mark Ronson for his new single "Nothing Breaks Like a Heart." As previously reported, the pair will also be on Saturday Night Live on December 15, when they will be doing "Nothing Breaks Like a Heart" live.
