Youseason 5 now has an official release date and new teaser posters. The show, which is based on the Caroline Kepnes book series of the same name, stars Penn Badgley as Joe Goldberg, a New Yorker who stalks various women over the course of the show, frequently killing those who get in his way.Youseason 5, which will be the final season of the series, features a supporting cast that includes Madeline Brewer, Anna Camp, Griffin Matthews, Nava Mau, and returning stars Charlotte Ritchie and Tati Gabrielle reprising their roles as Kate Galvin and Marienne Bellamy respectively.
On the officialYouX account, two teaser posters for season 5 were shared, along with a caption confirming thatthe “killer final season” of the show will air in 2025.See the original post below:
One poster sees Joe peering through a collection of newspaper clippings about his victims,hinting that he might be caught by the end of the series. Several letters are circled on the clippings, though they do not seem to represent a full anagram. The other poster features a collection of evidence of his various murders along with further clippings. Letters are circled on these clippings as well, this time clearly forming an anagram for “GOODBYE YOU.” See the full-sized posters below:
What This Means For You Season 5
This Could Be The End For Joe Goldberg
The “murder board” aesthetic of both posters seems to indicate that someone is hot on Joe’s trail, considering how many bodies have been left in his wake.This could ultimately doom Joe, especially considering the fact that set photos from July depicted him being ushered into the back of a police car. However, it remains to be seen exactly what happens to him in the final episodes, as well as which member of theYoucastcould be responsible for this investigation.
Youseason 5 sees Joe returning to his home territory of New York City, which could trigger this investigation.
It seems likely that whoever is assembling this evidence is a returning character from previous seasons. This was highlighted by aYouseason 5 teaser videoreleased as part of Netflix’s TUDUM fan event in 2023, in whichBadgley teased that the season may feature “loose ends from Joe’s past.“The video included footage of quite a few potential returning characters who have survived their encounters with Joe, such as Marienne, Paco (Luca Padovan), Ellie (Jenna Ortega), and the Conrads (Shalita Grant and Travis Van Winkle), though it also conspicuously did not feature other survivors including Theo (Dylan Arnold).
Our Take On The You Season 5 Update
It Could Be Coming Quite Soon
While Joe’s fate hangs in the balance, this announcement of the season release window means that the wait for the show to follow up on theYouseason 4 endingis finally drawing to a close. Season 4 part 2 aired in March 2023, so it has already been nearly two years since the season finale. While the 2023 strikes may have seen production slow down somewhat, the show’s hiatuses have never reached two full years before, indicating that, even given a delay of a few months,season 5 will likely premiere some time in the first half of 2025.
