Netflix’s Penn Badgley-Led You Season 3 Wraps Production

April 26, 2021

Netflix has officially announced that production on the upcoming third season of their hit psychological thriller series You has finally been completed after filming was delayed for two weeks earlier this year due to the ongoing pandemic. The filming wrap also comes on the heels of Co-CEO and Chief Content Officer Ted Sarandos previously confirming that the Penn Badgley-led series is indeed making its return later this year.

In addition, showrunner Sera Gamble also took to Twitter to celebrate the end of filming by praising the cast and crew’s hard work and resilience while also sharing how the production persevered during the pandemic. She also went on to tease the new season’s bonkers episodes and insanely good performances.

Obviously there is also an element of sheer good luck in this statistic. It’s impossible to totally negate risk in a pandemic.

(Also, the episodes are fucking bonkers and the performances are insanely good. That’s all I’ll say about that till we are ready to talk about the new season.)

Based on Caroline Kepnes’s novel series, You centers around Joe Goldberg, a toxic and delusional stalker who has the tendency of becoming extremely obsessed with every girl he falls in love with. Season 1 follows Joe as a male bookstore manager who becomes deeply infatuated with aspiring writer Beck to the point of him eliminating all the obstacles that will get in the way of his romance with her. Meanwhile, in Season 2, following the events of the first season, Joe Goldberg (Badgley) moves to Los Angeles, where he meets aspiring chef Love Quinn, who is uninterested in social media the way his previous love interest was.
