In a brand-new “whodunit” format, this season of You, which just released its first trailer, shows Joe Goldberg (Penn Badgley) finding himself going toe-to-toe with another serial killer that comes into his life. Netflix has decided to release the season in two parts, with Part 1 debuting on February 9.
According to Netflix, “After his previous life went up in flames, Joe Goldberg has fled to Europe to escape his “messy” past, adopt a new identity, and, of course, to pursue true love. But Joe soon finds himself in the strange new role of reluctant detective as he discovers he may not be the only killer in London. Now, his future depends on identifying and stopping whoever’s targeting his new friend group of uber-wealthy socialites.”

This changes the shows format a bit with Joe caught off guard for the first time. The trailer shows Joe (who know goes by Professor Jonathan Moore) working at a college teaching. He crosses paths with a group of “privileged douchebags” and finds himself entrapped as he learns more about the group while trying to figure out who the “Eat the Rich Killer” is and wants from him. Incase you are wondering about last season’s love interest, Marienne (Tati Gabrielle) don’t worry — the trailer shows a quick glimpse of her too as she is in the middle of a confrontation with Joe.
The new two-minute trailer, which you can see below, shows that Joe seems to be attempting to prove to himself (or maybe subconsciously for Marienne) that he is a good person and that if he shows some sort of redemption, he will be able to win her back.
The Season 4 cast also features Ed Speleers, Tilly Keeper, Amy Leigh Hickman, Niccy Lin, Aidan Cheng, Stephen Hagan, Ben Wiggins, Eve Austin, Ozioma Whenu, Dario Coates, Sean Pertwee, Brad Alexander, Alison Pargeter, Adam James and “The White Lotus” Season 1 actor Lukas Gage.
Inspired by the novels of the same name by Caroline Kepnes, the series is developed by showrunner Sera Gamble and Greg Berlanti, who executive produce along with Leslie Morgenstein, Gina Girolamo, Sarah Schecter and Michael Foley. Warner Bros. Television is the production company.
“You” Season 4 Part 2 will be released a month later, on March 9.
