Black screen + Apple logo after entering password

Hey! I’ve just updated to Mojave without any issue. There’s a strange behaviour at the login screen: after I enter my password there’s a loading bar (the usual that used to appear always I previous macOS versions, when it gets to 70% aprox the screen goes black, then the Apple logo and a progress bar appears and then I get to the desktop. Any ideas? I tried SMC reset and PRAM reset but the issue persists.

Thanks!

Hi... Have just spent the last 3 hours on chat with Apple support ... They have advised me that this is a known issue with no immediate fix so far . I have so far reset NVRAM and SMC , created new user profiles and re installed the macOS.. all of which have done nothing but waste my time..... I am yet to receive my support call with a senior engineer to take logs so they can work on a patch to fix the issue .......
