The second season of the thriller, which drew wide appreciation in the debut season based on the life of a stalker Joe Goldberg was dropped on 26 December, 2019. Developed by Gamble and Berlanti, the first two seasons are based on the books ‘You’ and ‘Hidden Bodies’ by Caroline Kepnes.

Fresh out of an intense relationship that ended in murder, the last thing he expects is to meet an incredible new woman but he’s falling in love again — with a woman named Love (Pedretti). The show stars Penn Badgley in the lead role of the serial killer Joe Goldberg dubbed as Will Bettleheim in the second installment of the franchise. Both the seasons of You are currently streaming on Netflix and the next instalment of the series will premiere in 2021, reported E online.
