Hello… you. So. You want to meet the You season 5 cast? You've to come back for the fifth and final season of the creepiest, twistiest, funnest Netflix show, have you? Of course you have! How could you not?! We all have to see how Joe Goldberg's murderous saga ends. And what a wild ride it has been.
We first met New York's most handsome stalker way back in 2018 when he first fell for the doomed Beck in his dusty bookshop. He went on to fall for LA cool girl Love in season 2, before the couple moved to the suburbs in season 3. Naturally, that situation ended in flames (literally). Season 4 saw Joe hopping across the pond and taking the UK by storm as he found himself killing his way through London's social scene (while having a psychotic break, kind of unsurprisingly).
The season came to an unexpected end, with Joe teaming up with Kate (who, it turned out, was as cold-blooded as she was blue-blooded) and preparing to travel back to New York City.
And here we go again. You is back for its fifth and final season — and we are so ready to meet Joe's new cohort (and, presumably, victims). Let's meet the You season 5 cast.
“This is going to be the best season yet!”

You season 5 cast
Of course, it wouldn't be You without Penn Padgley's Joe Goldberg. Before he played the obsessive, stalking, killing, anti-hero of this show, you may remember him as the Upper East Side's favourite Lonely Boy, aka Dan Humphries in Gossip Girl.
Frankie DeMaio joins the cast this season as Henry, Joe's son. (Yes, you may remember Joe and Love had a son in season 3, who Joe gave Henry to his friend Dante at the end of the season, but it seems that Joe has managed to get Henry back. And honestly, that can't be good.) DeMaio makes his professional debut with this Netflix series.
Charlotte Ritchie's Kate Lockwood is back after joining the show last season. Although Kate initially seemed to be a sweet, innocent sort, by the end of the season, it became clear that she was willing to put up with a fair amount of weird stuff for Joe's sake. Ritchie previously starred in Call the Midwife, Ghosts, Feel Good, and Wonka.
Girffin Matthews joins the cast this season as Teddy, Kate's half-brother. Matthews previously starred in She-Hulk, The Flight Attendant, and Genius.
Millennials, this one is for you. Anna Camp joins You as not one character, but two, playing twins Regan and Maddie Lockwood, both half-sisters of Kate. Camp has appeared in a number of iconic films and TV shows including the Pitch Perfect franchise and True Blood.
Harrison Jacobs is Regan's husband who, at least initially, seems to be one of the kindest, most sympathetic members of the family. You may recognise Pete Ploszek from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Babylon, Captain Marvel, and Teen Wolf.
Jeffrey Dahmer? That's on Netflix.
Kate's uncle is kind of a… cowboy? It'll make sense when you watch it. You might remember Michael Dempsey from episodes of Barry, Station 11, Desperate Housewives, or Lost.
Of course, it wouldn't be You without a new object of interest for Joe — and this season, it seems that that unlucky person in Bronte, an employee at Mooney's Bookshop. "She likes romance novels, fairy smut, and internet sleuthing. That’s Bronte," Brewer explained. We're intrigued. You may know Brewer as Janine in The Handmaid's Tale, Tricia in Orange is the New Black, or Dawn in Hustlers.
Tom Francis joins the cast as Clayton, Bronte's ex who, apparently, didn't treat her all that well. Francis is new to the TV world, but you may recognise him as the lead of Broadway's Sunset Boulevard.
Dr. Val is the psychologist at Henry's school — Joe, obviously, doesn't take too kindly into anyone who questions him, so we can't see this ending too well. Hurd previously acted alongside Badgley in Gossip Girl, playing Laurel who worked with Eleanor Waldorf. She's also appeared in 90210, Law & Order, and Star Trek: Picard.
Joe is set to meet Dominique this season outside of the Lockwood clan's elite circle. She's played by Natasha Behnam, who you may know from HBO's The Girls on the Bus.
And finally, there's Phoenix, another new accquaintance in Joe's second go at New York City life. You may recognise b from The Terror, Elsbeth, and WeCrashed.
It's safe to say that the BBC have secured the goods.
