Netflix’s hit thriller YOU returns for its final episode on April 24. Will Joe Goldberg finally face justice, or will he escape again? Here’s everything we know so far.
After five seasons of secret obsession, manipulation, multiple killings, and nefarious activities that rival a horror movie franchise, Netflix’s psychological thriller is finally coming to an end. The killer finale is set to drop on April 24, 2025, and fans are anticipating and coming up with diverse theories, leaving everyone with unanswered questions and bracing themselves for what could be Joe Goldberg’s most twisted move yet or his long-awaited downfall.
From a Bookstore Manager to a Cold-Blooded Killer
Joe’s transformation from a charming bookstore clerk to an uncontrollable serial killer has been crazy. Joe has spent years stalking, “protecting” ( putting the quote there cos that was always his reason to kill) and eliminating people in the name of twisted love. In every season, we hope he gets caught, and unfortunately, every season, he doesn’t.
Season 4 had a few shocking turns of events where Joe tried to escape karma by attempting to rewrite his story and escape his past.
What We Know So Far
We’ve had a few spoilers from Netflix leaving us with questions, but here is what we know so far:
– Joe is back in New York, where it all started.
– Some familiar faces may return (possibly in ghost form… hello, Love) as he most of the time hallucinates, and a little about his past keeps resurfacing.
– This final chapter is reportedly darker, bloodier, more sinister, and more psychological than the previous chapters.
– He gets married and almost starts living a normal life.
– The tagline? “As for YOU, we’re not done with each other yet.” Yeah, we’re not okay.
Fans Are Coming Up With Theories
Social media is already buzzing with theories:
– Theory 1: Joe finally gets caught and goes to jail.
– Theory 2: He had schizophrenia and imagined doing all those bad things, and had been in a mental institution.
– Theory 3: Love somehow ends up alive.
A Cultural Icon of Chaos
Despite his crimes, Joe became a pop culture sensation. YOU mixed romance, murder, suspense, and reflection into one dangerously bingeable series. With every internal monologue and creepy glance, Joe made viewers question just how long he would fool people with his calm appearance and handsome face.
So… Will Justice Finally Be Served?
As April 24 approaches, one thing’s for sure: this finale will be the talk of social media. Whether Joe gets caught, killed, or finds a way to escape again, fans will be watching.
So grab your popcorn (and maybe a pillow ), because YOU is going all out.
