Netflix's You Season 2 has been perfectly timed for us to binge-watch when it drops on December 26, and if the trickle of teasers are anything to go by, it promises to be as spine-chillingly creepy as the first.
With two of the main characters from the first series now dead and Joe making the move from New York to Los Angeles, the second season—which is adapted from Caroline Kepnes' Hidden Bodies—will introduce all-new characters, who you can meet right here:
Love (Victoria Pedretti)
The Haunting of Hill House's Victoria Pedretti will play female lead Love Quinn, who is Joe's new love interest obsession. According to TVLine, "Unlike her predecessor, she is uninterested in the world of social media, branding, and self-promotion, focused instead on leading an interesting life. She is also tending to a deep grief—and when she meets Joe, she senses a shared knowledge of profound, life-changing loss."
Forty (James Scully)
The Heathers actor will play Forty Quinn, described as "confident, opinionated, and privileged—at his best, a charming buddy; at his worst, a razor-sharp bully," according to TV Line. He's the brother of Love Quinn.
Ellie (Jenny Ortega)
Jane The Virgin's Jenna Ortega will be playing Ellie Alves—a teenager who "grew up fast in the big city." Her character bio adds: "Ellie isn't afraid to get into murky waters to make a little cash. This includes working cons on adults around her, including Joe Goldberg."
Delilah (Carmela Zumbado)
The Wall Of Mexico star Carmela plays investigative journalist Delilah, who gets a hunch Joe is hiding something and is determined to find out what.
Henderson (Chris D'Elia)
The comedian will be playing Henderson—a "designer-hoodie, black Ray-Bans, expensive sneakers-wearing famous comedian with a 'hard-life-lessons man-of-the-people' thing working for him."
Gabe (Charlie Barnett)
Fans of Netflix's mind-bending Russian Doll will be delighted to hear (or not, considering what happened to Peach) that Charlie Barnett—who played the loveable Alan in the series—is playing Love's oldest friend Gabe.
Calvin (Adwin Brown)
Heathers' Adwin Brown will also be joining the series. After leaving New York for LA, Joe will be working in a trendy grocery store/cafe called Anavrin, where Adwin's character will be the manager. "They both bond over their love and appreciation of literature and Calvin ends up giving Joe the job," Adwin said.
Lucy (Marielle Scott)
According to Deadline, Marielle plays "an edgy-chic literary agent with deadpan wit and a sense of humor about her own LA-ness." She's one of Love's best friends, as is her partner, blogger Sunrise (played by Melanie Field).
Will (Robin Lord Taylor)
Gotham's Robin Lord Taylor is playing Will, a character who "deals with unsavory sorts as part of his job, but is himself a thoughtful, personable, and highly intelligent guy who marches to the beat of his own drummer. That is, until he gets trapped in a bad situation," reports Deadline.
Candace (Ambyr Childers)
Ambyr Childers is returning as Joe's MIA ex-girlfriend Candace—but this time in the present, rather than in Joe's troubled hallucinations.
Joe (Penn Badgley)
While he really needs no introduction, Penn will of course be back as the *ahem* newly-single Joe Goldberg.
