The top is nigh for Joe Goldberg, and it’s about time.
He’s been the serial killer we’ve loathed however watched with adoration for years, however his time is sort of up.
Netflix on Thursday confirmed that YOU Season 5 will start streaming later this yr.
Extra particularly, April 24 is the large date, and there appears to be some excellent news with the announcement:
There’s no point out of a cut up season. That technique didn’t work out properly for YOU Season 4, so we’re glad to see the again of it.
We’re additionally glad that Joe’s reign of terror is ending sooner reasonably than later.
YOU Season 5 Has A Lofty Process
The collection is a textbook instance of a present that misplaced its luster after a charming freshman season.
That mentioned, YOU Season 4 shifted the narrative by taking Joe to London, the place he acquired immersed in a depraved new thriller.
The large shock is that we’re returning to the place all of it started, with Joe again in New York and seemingly on the hook for his crimes.
He’s slipped by means of the web at each flip, which has ruined the collection in some respects, so will probably be fascinating to see how he manages to do it once more in these ultimate episodes.
“Right here we’re, collectively once more, again to the place it started,” Joe says in a voiceover within the first teaser for YOU Season 5.
“Quite a bit has occurred these a few years collectively — identities, cities, loves, problems — however all that led me right here, to now, to the place I used to be at all times meant to be.
“And the one fixed, the one factor that’s at all times been there for me, is you. You, who’ve been there the entire time and will likely be there with me till the tip. Goodbye, you.”
YOU Season 5 Ought to Finish With Joe’s Demise
As charming as Penn Badgley is on this position, Joe has confirmed to be a strolling purple flag, so there’s no means we’re being hoodwinked by him once more.
Joe spent a lot of YOU Season 4 romancing Kate (Charlotte Ritchie), and in some way, she was unsurprised by his murderous tendencies and decided to make their relationship work. It was a tough left flip, however we’re thrilled to see what occurs subsequent.
“Joe Goldberg returns to New York to take pleasure in his fortunately ever after… till his good life is threatened by the ghosts of his previous and his personal darkish wishes,” teases the quick however informative logline.
Kate is current within the teaser, together with Guinevere Beck (Elizabeth Lail), Love Quinn (Victoria Pedretti), Marianne Bellamy (Tati Gabrielle), Benji (Lou Taylor Pucci), Cary (Travis Van Winkle), Sherry Conrad (Shalita Grant), and Delilah Alves (Carmela Zumbado).
Newcomers for YOU Season 5 embody Madeline Brewer, Anna Camp, and Griffin Matthews.
It’s an excellent solid, however we’re tempering our expectations as a result of the one means this present can finish with grace is that if Joe dies a horrible dying after being dragged by means of the mud for his crimes.
We doubt the present will go that route as a result of Netflix will in all probability need a reboot down the road. In any case, no present can ever really finish as of late.
