In between eating endless amounts of turkey and mince pies over Christmas, fans of Netflix series You completely binge-watched the second series of the hit show, featuring former Gossip Girl actor Penn Badgley, after it dropped on Boxing Day.

Whilst we aren't going to give any Season 2 spoilers away in case you've still not watched it, show writer Sera Gamble confirmed on Twitter that they're already working on season three.

Taking to Twitter, she shared a photo of herself standing on a doormat with the logo on, alongside the caption, 'We’ve started work on season 3. Just thought you’d want to know. #YouNetflix.'

This comes after the official You Twitter account confirmed the third season was on its way almost three weeks later, writing, 'See you soon, neighbor. YOU S3 is coming.'

Penn also got fans VERY excited just a week after the second series dropped in late December before show bosses had the chance, seemingly letting slip that a third series was in the works.

Following THAT shocking ending of the new series, Penn, who plays the role of serial killer Joe, spoke to Entertainment Tonight where he 'unofficially confirmed' Season 3.

Speaking about his love interest Love, the actor said, "She doesn’t appear to be the same kind of person. She doesn’t appear to be the same kind of predator. She doesn’t appear to be the same kind of… you know, dare I say, in the third season – oh, god!" Penn added, "Technically I can’t… I mean, like, unofficially?"

OH MY GOD! 🙏🙏🙏

Check out the official cast for You Season 2:

Joe Goldberg (Penn Badgely)

Of course, main character Joe returned for Season Two, where he escaped to Los Angeles after murdering Beck, Peach, Ron and Lou in Season One.


Penn is probably best known - aside from You - for his role in Gossip Girl, where he played Dan Humphrey and ended up being revealed as the eponymous Gossip Girl. He also appeared in films John Tucker Must Die and Easy A, amongst others.

Candace (Ambyr Childers)

She played the role of Joe's ex-girlfriend Candace in Season One, and actress Ambyr Childers also appears in Season Two, but this time in real life, not just in Joe's head. Ambyr has starred in various films, but is best known for her roles in You and All My Children as Colby Chandler.

Love Quinn (Victoria Pedretti)

After fleeing to Los Angeles, Joe met his brand new love interest... in the form of Love Quinn - quite the ironic name! Love ended up being just as unhinged as Joe, and there was a shock twist at the end... Which we'll keep on the DL in case you've not seen it yet!


Victoria had a bumper 2019, not only landing the main role of Love in You but also portraying a member of the Manson Family in Quentin Tarantino's blockbuster, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. She also starred in The Haunting of Hill House as Nell Crain in 2018, and will appear in the sequel The Haunting of Bly Manor as Dani.

Forty Quinn (James Scully)

Actor James Scully plays the role of Love Quinn's brother, Forty Quinn. His character is described as, "Confident, opinionated and privileged — at his best, a charming buddy; at his worst, a razor-sharp bully."


James is best known for his role on You, but also had a small role in series Quantico and 9-1-1, as well as a larger role on Heathers.

Guinevere Beck (Elizabeth Lail)

Guinevere, or Beck, was a main character in season one, appearing as a guest in season 2. She was a student and aspiring writer, who became the obsession of Joe in the first season and eventually his girlfriend, before finding out the truth... Sadly, she didn't survive and he killed her. She briefly appeared in the second series in Joe's hallucinations. Elizabeth also played the role of Anna in Once Upon A Time.

Peach Salinger (Shay Mitchell)

Shay played Beck's best friend Peach in the first season - and was also in love with her, but this was sadly unrequited, as she just loved her as a friend. Peach became jealous and suspicious of Joe - and when they had a huge fight, he killed her. Shay has also starred in Pretty Little Liars, The Possession of Hannah Grace and Dollface.

Gabe Miranda (Charlie Barnett)

Charlie Barnett plays the role of Love Quinn's best friend in You Season Two. Best known for being star of Netflix series Russian Doll, Charlie also starred in Chicago Fire, Orange Is the New Black and Tales of the City as well as Arrow.

Delilah (Carmela Zumbado)

Actress Carmela Zumbado took on the role of investigative journalist Delilah, and it didn't take her long to realise something is funny about Joe. Carmela has also starred in Crazy Ex-Girlfriend and NCIS: New Orleans.

Ellie Alves (Jenna Ortega)

You'll probably recognise Jenna Ortega from Jane The Virgin, but now she's landed the role of teenager Ellie Alves in You, Delilah's younger sister. She also had a small role in Iron Man 3, Elena of Avalor, Stuck in the Middle and CSI: NY.

Will Bettelheim (Robin Lord Taylor)

Although the character of Will was kept quite mysterious ahead of the second series being released, we now know that he's a hacker who deals with 'unsavory' things. Joe assumes his identity for a while.


Robin had a small part in John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum, Law & Order, Life on Mars, The Good Wife The Walking Dead and Gotham.

Dottie Quinn (Saffron Burrows)

Saffron Burrows joined the show in the second season as Love and Forty's mum Dottie, who is revealed to also be a dodgy character. She has a strained relationship with both of her children thanks to the secret trauma they went through.


Saffron has been in a number of high profile films over the years, but might be best known for her roles in Deep Blue Sea, Enigma, Troy, Boston Legal and Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D..

Dr. Nicky (John Stamos)

Dr. Nicky was Beck's therapist in the first season, and had a guest role in the second. He also treated Joe, and when Joe discovered his affair with Beck, Joe framed him for the murders of Peach, Beck and Beck's other lover, Benji.


John is well-known in US TV, having starred in General Hospital, Full House, ER, Glee and Scream Queens, amongst others.

Season 2 dropped on Boxing Day, fans have been watching the full series in one day, with many admitting they believe it to be better than the popular Season 1, which first hit Netflix back in 2018.

You Season Two is available on Netflix now, with the season consisting of 10 episodes.
