The next story contains spoilers for You Season 3.
Or no longer it is wild to mediate again to the autumn of 2018, when You—the stalker thriller starring frail Gossip Lady well-known particular person Penn Badgley—became as soon as correct a minute bit-known and minute-seen point to (nonetheless one held in juicy high-regard) airing on Lifetime. Per Hidden Our bodies by Caroline Kepnes, the purpose to had a dinky-nonetheless-devoted viewers that, given correct how many presentations there are on TV at any given moment, probably would include slipped under the radar. Then a shrewd bolt came about, though—the purpose to landed with Netflix.
When Lifetime’s You hit Netflix in early 2019, it grew to change into an straight away gigantic buzzy hit; the purpose to became as soon as already shifting to Netflix, and audiences made it sure that became as soon as a tidy alternative. The point to has since debuted a Season 2 and, now, a Season 3 which include each been enormous common on the streaming giant. And Netflix only recently launched that Season 4 is on the contrivance.
The point to is unassuming passable—Joe Goldberg (Penn Badgley) thinks he is a apt guy who lives his lifestyles by his come by train code. He loves books. He is a “good guy.” He stalks of us. He murders of us. It…spirals out of hand quite immediate, indubitably. However Joe—through Badgley’s immaculate narration—all the time appears to be like to be up to bustle. Or no longer it is nearly adore a non secular successor to what Dexter did for all these years on showtime, nonetheless with a minute little bit of winking self-consciousness that invent the purpose to indubitably quite a minute bit smarter than you most definitely be aware.
You is now not any longer indubitably precisely field television; it be a soapy, juicy, thriller drama, the put about 4 field twists and turns happen per episode. Or no longer it is additionally bought indubitably appropriate performing (from Badgley and Victoria Pedretti, in train), and is persistently on-point with its narration and point of view on social stances and disorders.
And portion of what has made You so vital fun to technique to now three instances is how the purpose to all the time reinvents itself. Its Original York-remark first season became as soon as distinctly assorted from its Los Angeles-remark second season which became as soon as totally assorted from its suburb-remark (“Madre Linda”) third season. And alongside the contrivance we have gotten to stare assorted shades and angles of Joe, to boot as Pedretti’s character, Be pleased, who returned for Season 3.
And with the purpose to now remark to diagram another time for Season 4, we’re interesting to stare how it will continue to develop.

Will there be a Season 4 of You?
There certain shall be. Netflix launched that You might maybe be returning for Season 4 on October 13, 2021 correct forward of the October 15 free up of the purpose to’s third season. The announcement came with each a video and an official assertion.
Sera Gamble, the government producer and showrunner of You, gave this observation in an announcement from Netflix:
“Discovering out Caroline’s original, Greg and I were straight away obsessive about Joe Goldberg and his twisted world glance. And it be been thrilling to glance Penn carry Joe to creepy yet compelling lifestyles. We’re deeply grateful that Netflix has confirmed You such enormous make stronger and that folks all the contrivance through the arena include enjoyed staring at Joe indubitably fetch all of it very inferior over the final 3 seasons. Your total You group is labored up to explore unusual, dark aspects of affection in season 4.”

What’s going to Season 4 of You be about?
On the end of Season 3, Joe faked his come by dying, staging a wreck-suicide at Be pleased’s palms that additionally implicated her for the deaths of, well, correct about each person else in Madre Linda who disappeared (which might maybe consist of Natalie, who she indubitably killed, alongside with anti-vaxxer Gil and asshole newsman Ryan Goodwin). Off the grid, we stare at the very end of the purpose to that he is now relocated to Paris (after a fakeout of two guys talking about Original York).
And after a vision in Paris of Marienne (Changed into as soon because it exact or became as soon as he imagining it? We do now not indubitably know.) it guarantee that the frail librarian is soundless on his tips and the object of his obsession. The season marked Joe’s transformation from a lead-villain—he had very few redemptive qualities in Season 1 and 2—to extra of an anti-hero; that became as soon as performed through taking part in up the unpredictable and impulsive qualities of Be pleased, which Victoria Pedretti indubitably did truthful work in conveying while soundless making Be pleased an completely-human being that we extra or much less adore (until we keep in mind that she is a risk to execute someone at any given moment).
Something that Season 3 did indubitably, indubitably well is to invent one thing abundantly sure to the viewers: Joe is now not any longer as self-mindful as he thinks he is. The Joe we hear through his narration is mostly sharing some observations that, let’s face it, are splendid damn factual. We do now not are looking out to agree with a murderer/stalker/weirdo, nonetheless many of the time he is apt. However by Season 3, when he starts talking about how Marienne is going to be his overjoyed-ever-after, observant viewers might maybe additionally soundless start to include a study the sample.
This man spent everything of Season 1 lusting over Guinevere Beck greatest to (presumably, we soundless can’t be 100% certain) execute her. He spent all of Season 2 lusting over Be pleased Quinn correct for her to flip out to be a necessary higher monster than he became as soon as, and customarily trick him into settling into a domesticated lifestyles with a wife and minute one; even when he claimed to be “overjoyed,” he straight away moved onto the following thing, whether it became as soon as Natalie, or, at final, Marienne. Joe Goldberg isn’t going to be overjoyed; he is mostly going to be shopping for the following skinny. And in all likelihood Marienne, in Season 4, shall be one to in the extinguish be aware that—outsmart him for apt.
When will Season 4 of You diagram out?
Netflix
We do now not know precisely when Season 4 of You will diagram out correct yet. However we can bolt constant with earlier releases to fetch a hint. Season 1 rolled out weekly in some unspecified time in the future of the autumn of 2018—nonetheless include in tips that this became as soon as when the purpose to became as soon as airing on Lifetime, and no longer Netflix. Season 2 came out in behind December, 2019. Season 3 took nearly 2 years to diagram out, landing on Netflix in October 2021—nonetheless that, finally, accounted for a enormous duration that became as soon as probably delays attributable to Covid.
If we had to guess—and finally this is constant with customarily nothing—You Season 4 might maybe additionally be again in either Fall or Cold climate of 2022.
Who shall be in the solid of Season 4 of You?
With our action—no longer lower than temporarily—shifting to Paris, France the splendid character we can invent certain that about returning is Joe Goldberg, played finally by Penn Badgley. The article of his affection is soundless Marienne, played by Tati Gabrielle, so we can feel reasonably confident that she shall be making some form of look in Season 4 to boot.
Other than these two, it be anybody’s sport. Matthew Enrage (Scott Speedman) and his son Theo (Dylan Arnold) look like in a apt put in Madre Linda, so we have probably seen the final of them. The identical goes for Sherry (Sharlita Grant) and Cary (Travis Van Winkle), who are thriving higher than ever after surviving the Joe/Be pleased skills.
A pair characters that might maybe additionally be again: Be pleased’s mother, Dottie (Saffron Burrows), who’s fearful and might be even extra fearful now that every of her twins are gone. We did now not stare Ellie (Jenna Ortega) in Season 3, nonetheless Joe clearly cares about her—he had been sending her cash all season long—and she’s soundless in the describe. She’s going to nearly completely return in some skill forward of the series ends.
And correct are looking out to toss this one available: Guinevere Beck (Elizabeth Lail). The first object of Joe’s affection that we observed in You is presumed ineffective. However, other folks, we never observed a body. We never observed what came about. Finest some meals for conception—chances are you’ll additionally additionally be the pick on that one.
