The first part of Netflix’s You season four found Joe reluctantly falling in with a group of socialites. And the first trailer for part two, premiering on March 9, 2023, teases all hell’s about to break loose before ending with a shot of Love (Victoria Pedretti) relaxing with Rhys Montrose’s (Ed Speleers) memoir, A Good Man in a Cruel World. She casually tosses out, “Hi, Joe,” as the nearly two-minute trailer ends.
Penn Badgley leads the cast as Joe Goldberg and Tati Gabrielle is back as Marienne Bellamy. Sera Gamble and Greg Berlanti developed the series, and Gamble serves as showrunner. Berlanti, Gamble, Gina Girolamo, Leslie Morgenstein, Sarah Schechter, and Michael Foley executive produce.
Season four writers include Sera Gamble, Leo Richardson, Neil Reynolds, Kara Lee Corthron, Mairin Reed, Justin W. Lo, Amanda Johnson-Zetterström, Michael Foley, Dylan Cohen, Hillary Benefiel, and Ab Chao. Directors include series stars Penn Badgley,...

No matter how hard he tries, Joe Goldberg (Penn Badgley) just can't escape his past — but in the first five episodes of "You" season 4, he still makes a valiant effort. The charming serial stalker gives up on his pursuit of former flame Marienne (Tati Gabrielle) and settles down in London as an English professor. Who needs true love when you can argue with snarky teenagers, instead? But try as he might to live a simple life, Joe quickly finds himself trapped in a whodunit, struggling to uncover the identity of the Eat The Rich Killer who's picking off several of his new "friends." This swerve takes the thriller into exciting new territory and sets the stage for an even twistier second half.
By the end of Part 1, all is revealed and we finally find out why the world's busiest man, Rhys Montrose (Ed Speleers), never sticks around at parties for...
