You season 3 cast: Meet the characters in Netflix thriller
The binge-worthy drama is back for a third run on Netflix.
The 'binge-worthy' thriller series You has returned for a third season on Netflix and has already become one of the most talked about shows on the streaming service, topping the charts across the globe. Once again it follows obsessive stalker Joe Goldberg (Gossip Girl's Penn Badgley) as he navigates modern life and love and tries (but usually fails) to keep his murderous intentions in check.
Adapted from Caroline Kepnes' novel of the same name, the first season of Netflix's hit show focused on Joe's unhealthy obsession with Beck, while in the second season he discovered his new love interest, Love Quinn (Victoria Pedretti), had a past – and present – just as dark as his own.
By the end of the second season, Love revealed she was pregnant with Joe's baby, and they both return – with new baby Henry – for the third season.
The new season has many of the old favourites back and also boasts a host of brand new characters and cast members – so read on for everything you need to know about them and where you might have seen the actors before.
If you are ready, let's begin finding out about the cast of You season 3...
