You season 4 part 2 dropped on Netflix on Thursday 9 March.

Is there a You season 4 part 2 trailer?

Following the explosive ending of part 1, fans were given a hint of what to expect in the upcoming second part of the series. The trailer picks up where part 1 left off, as Joe Goldberg ominous voiceover vowss to “stop” Rhys Montrose over the murders.

Things then take a dramatic turn as we catch a glimpse of Love Quinn (Victoria Pedretti), Goldberg’s former wife, whom he poisoned and left for dead after burning down their house in the season 3 finale. The quick scene shows Quinn in Joe’s infamous glass box looking at his books, given what happened and the fact that we know Quinn’s family sent a hitman to kill Joe, it’s possible this could be a flashback, or maybe Quinn did survive the attack.

Will there be a You season 5?

Netflix has not yet confirmed whether the series has been renewed for a fifth season, but due to its popularity amongst viewers it’s likely another season will be in the works. During an interview with the Happy Sad Podcast, in February 2023 Badgley revealed that he had signed a “six-year contract” with Netflix, he also hinted as to whether there could be a season 5.

Badgley said: “I signed a six-year contract right out the gate. So they could do two more if they wanted. I think if there’s another season, I think it’s only going to be one. I think–this is my understanding, but I don’t know, I really don’t know,” he continued. Adding: “But I know that everybody concerned, from the top on down, nobody wants this show to become tired.”
