Netflix Unveils ‘You’ Season 5 Poster: ‘A Killer Goodbye’

It looks like Joe Goldberg’s past is finally coming back to bite him.

On Thursday, Netflix unveiled the posters (below) for the long-awaited fifth and final season of Youstarring Penn Badgley. The streamer also announced that the final season will arrive in 2025, although an exact date has yet to be revealed.

You follows Joe Goldberg, a dangerously charming, intensely obsessed young man who goes to extreme – and sometimes fatal – measures to insert himself into the lives of those he’s confused by. The fifth season will see Joe return to where it all began, New York City, to enjoy his happily ever after. However, his perfect life is threatened by the ghosts of his past and his own dark desires.

The cast also includes Charlotte Richie, Madeline Brewer, Anna Camp and Griffin Matthews. Michael Foley and Justin Lo served as co-showrunners for season five, with Greg Berlanti, Sera Gamble, Badgley, Sarah Schechter, Leigh London Redman, Leslie Morgenstein, Gina Girolamo, Marcos Siega and Neil Reynolds serving as executive producers.

Gamble, who served as the series’ showrunner through its first four seasons, teased what’s next for Joe after the season four finale last year.

“He has managed to come home again and that is important,” she said The Hollywood Reporter then. “Something that we felt we didn’t have to go on forever about was the idea that every single time, pretty much, that he killed somebody, he’s not only justified it in his head, he’s justified that it was probably an accident a lot of the time. ‘Oops, I hit her head too hard.’ “Oops, he fell down the stairs.” ‘Oops, I pushed him off the balcony because I was furious for a moment.’

Gamble continued: “Without sacrificing Joe’s beating heart, which is his romantic sensibilities and his belief in love, we’re very interested in what happens if he’s not constantly screwing because he’s lying to himself about what he knows to do. Like, how much better can he be at what he does if he accepts it the way we heard Rhys accept it?”
