You season 4 is now streaming in its entirety on Netflix, with both part 1 and part 2 now available to watch. The latest installment in the twist-filled thriller sees Joe Goldberg (Penn Badgley) start a new life in London under the alias Professor Jonathan Moore after the explosive events of the season 3 finale. While trying to keep a low profile, Joe finds himself falling in with a group of wealthy socialites in the English capital – right as they start being picked off, one by one, by the so-called Eat the Rich killer. 

What's more, the tables have turned on Joe – he's now the pursued rather than the pursuer, as he begins receiving anonymous messages from the murderer with threats to frame him and expose his real identity. That's just the start, with old and new faces making Joe's "European holiday" more stressful than he was anticipating, so there's a lot to unpack in the series' latest installment. That's why we've got the complete lowdown on You season 4, including reviews, exclusive insights from cast members, and everything we know about the future of the show. 

You season 4 reviews

Our review of You season 4 part 1 gave the season's first installment four stars, with our reviewer saying it "breathed new life" into the series. You season 4 part 2 got three stars from us, with our reviewer commenting on the "ever-ludicrous" plot that still left us wanting to come back for more.

You season 4 release dates

You season 4 is split across two parts on Netflix – part 1 premiered on February 9, and part 2 followed on March 9. There are five episodes in both part 1 and part 2, so 10 episodes total, and they're all available to stream now.

Penn Badgley returns as Joe Goldberg, who's going by the alias Professor Jonathan Moore, and Tati Gabrielle is back as Marienne, the object of his obsession in season 3. The rest of the main cast is made up of new additions. First up is Amy-Leigh Hickman as Nadia, an outspoken student of Joe's, while Brad Alexander is her classmate Eddie.

Feel Good star Charlotte Ritchie is Kate, an art gallery director and Joe's love interest. Tilly Keeper is Lady Phoebe, Kate's best friend, and Euphoria's Lukas Gage plays Adam, a wealthy ex-pat American and Phoebe's boyfriend. Ed Speleers (Rhys), Stephen Hagan (Malcolm), Aidan Cheng (Simon), Eve Austin (Gemma), Niccy Lin (Sophie), Ben Wiggins (Roald), Ozioma Whenu (Blessing), and Dario Coates (Connie) make up the rest of Phoebe and Kate's circle of friends.

There's certainly a lot to take in with You season 4, and you could be forgiven for having some unanswered questions about the way things went down for Joe. We've got guides to both You season 4 part 1 ending explained and You season 4 part 2 ending explained, which should hopefully clear up any mysteries for you regardless of how far along you are in the new season.

You season 5

Another big question facing us at the end of You season 4 is whether we've seen the last of Joe Goldberg. Based on the final episode, it would appear not, but the series has yet to be renewed by Netflix for a fifth season. While we wait to see if there's a fifth installment of Joe's exploits on the way, we've laid out everything we know so far about a potential You season 5.
