You season 5 cast: Hello you – Full list of new and returning characters on Netflix

Penn Badgley is, of course, back as everyone's favourite serial killer, while his partner corporate-heir-turned CEO Kate Lockwood (played by Ghosts star Charlotte Ritchie) also returns.

Meanwhile, new cast additions this time around include Madeline Brewer (The Handmaid's Tale), who plays free-spirit Bronte, an employee at Joe's bookstore.

Speaking about her role in the show, Brewer previously said: "She likes romance novels, fairy smut, and internet sleuthing. That's Bronte."

Speaking about her character's relationship with Joe, she added: "Bronte is drawn to Joe because, as he feels a bit of himself in her, I think she feels the same way. She sees someone who may have struggled and is trying to reinvent themselves."

Anna Camp (Teen Wolf) has also joined the cast of the thriller, and plays twins Reagan Lockwood-Jacobs and Maddie Lockwood.

Camp recently revealed that she asked for "double the money" when she was cast in the series.

She told the New York Post newspaper's Page Six column: “As soon as I got the call, I said, ‘Well, I’m going to have to learn double the lines, will I get double the money?'

“They said, ‘No,’ but I did ask. I had to ask!”

She added that she was exciting to try the "challenge" of juggling dual roles and learning both sets of lines.

By now, many You fans will have binged the whole final season (what about that shocking ending, huh?!) and, if you need a rundown of the full cast – new additions and the many familiar faces returning from Joe's past – we've got you covered.
