26 days ago | 5 Views

Fans run through theories over Joe Goldberg’s fate in You Season 5
Only With only a few days remaining until the final season of "You" premieres on Netflix, the fate of Joe will be determined once and for all. Fans are speculating about how the storyline of Badgley’s murderous character will conclude. One Reddit user suggested, “In Season 4, we observed Joe gradually losing his sense of self and his ambitions, particularly evident in the bridge scene. The new teaser for Season 5 shows him seemingly conversing with himself and questioning whether anything will ever satisfy him. This leads me to believe he might ultimately confess his crimes or turn himself in by the end of Season 5.”
Another Redditor commented, “He has previously acknowledged his own malevolence, which led to no significant change. In the last season, he embraced his darker side even more, so it seems unlikely that he would revert to a more redeemable state. I suspect the writers aim to make him increasingly irredeemable, making his eventual death or imprisonment more palatable for the audience.”
A third user proposed, “It just struck me that Joe could end up serving a lengthy prison sentence, and upon his release, he might open a bookstore where a random child (perhaps Paco) enters, mirroring the series' beginning. What are your thoughts?” Another user shared their theory, stating, “Henry discovers his father's true nature and confines him in a cage. That would be the conclusion.” Additionally, one user presented an intriguing idea, writing, “I have a feeling he will go to jail and become fixated on someone while incarcerated.”
What to expect from You Season 5?
After leaving behind a tumultuous past in London three years prior, Joe Goldberg makes his return to the city alongside his wife, Kate, who serves as the CEO of Lockwood Corporation. While they appear to be leading an idyllic life, their relationship is anything but conventional. Joe has revealed his history of violence to Kate, and to his astonishment, she accepted it without hesitation, possibly because of her own hidden truths. This mutual darkness could potentially forge a deeper connection between them than any of Joe's past relationships.
The fifth season of You will be available for streaming on Netflix starting April 24, 2025.
