You—the Netflix hit series starring Penn Badgley as a charismatic but inscrutable serial killer—is currently filming a fifth and final season following a bombshell fourth-season finale. The news is bittersweet for fans of the show, which is based on the best-selling book series by Caroline Kepnes.
Thankfully, we won’t have to say “Goodbye, you” to Joe Goldberg just yet. So, for now, let’s try to focus on the present. Here’s what we know about You season five:
You will come to an end in 2024.
Netflix announced the show’s renewal for a fifth and final season on March 24, 2023. They also dropped a teaser, although it doesn’t reveal much. Per the streaming platform, You executive producers Greg Berlanti and Sarah Schechter “always conceived” the series “as a five-season journey.”

Joe won’t be returning to London in You season 5.
The end of season three saw Joe in Paris, and season four takes place entirely in London. That is, until the very end. In the fourth season’s shocking finale, Joe and his new paramour—Kate, played by Charlotte Ritchie—move to New York so that Kate can take over her father’s business there.
As co-creator and showrunner Sera Gamble explained to The Cut, “We always knew we wanted him to go back to New York, have a homecoming, have his real name, shave his beard, and look like Joe Classic, but that he would be much more in the category of people he used to watch from afar. Now he has near unlimited resources. He has the support of powerful people and he has a lot less ambivalence about what he does in private. So that’s the setup.”

“Joe Classic” is definitely back for season 5.
As Gamble foretold, a beardless Badgley is back on set, though he’s now dressed like a wealthy (and married! Peep the wedding ring) man. We got our first pics from the filming of season 5 on March 26, and Goldberg is back in New York as promised.
