Netflix has released the first trailer for You Season 5, the final chapter of the hit thriller series starring Penn Badgley. The season premieres on April 24, 2025, and takes Joe Goldberg back to New York City, where his past catches up with him.
Where the Story Left Off
Since the show’s debut in 2018, Joe has taken on different identities while leaving a trail of destruction in his pursuit of love. From a bookstore clerk to a suburban husband and even a university professor, he’s tried to outrun his dark nature, but it always finds him.
What’s Coming in Season 5
Three years after the events in London, Joe is now married to Kate Galvin (Charlotte Ritchie), who runs the powerful Lockwood Corporation. They’ve settled in New York, and Joe wants to live a normal life. But as the trailer shows, old habits die hard.
Joe’s past is far from buried. The trailer hints at people from his history returning, making it clear that he won’t escape without consequences. His struggle to keep his new life intact while dealing with past actions will be the core conflict of the final season.
A ‘Killer’ Finale
Penn Badgley has teased that Season 5 will be an intense conclusion, calling it a ‘killer finale.’ The trailer suggests a mix of psychological tension, revenge, and reckoning. Fans can expect big twists and a dramatic end to Joe’s story.
When and Where to Watch
You Season 5 premieres on Netflix on April 24, 2025. This final season will determine whether Joe Goldberg can truly change—or if his past finally catches up with him for good.
