Season Two of Netflix’s psychological thriller is adding to its cast. 

You was a breakout hit on the streaming giant and almost immediately received a second season order. The series was developed by Sara Gamble & Greg Berlanti based on the book by Caroline Kepnes. 

Amby Childers who appeared on four episodes in the First Season of You as Candace, Joe Goldberg’s (Penn Badgley) ex-girlfriend, has been bumped to series regular. In the season finale viewers learned that not only Candace isn’t dead, she’s alive and pissed off. 

Also set to star opposite Badgley in the upcoming season is Victoria Pedretti who will play Love Quinn, an aspiring chef working as a produce manager in a high-end grocery store and Joe’s new love interest in LA (Spoiler! Season Two will see Joe move from NY to LA). 

You co-creator Gamble said of Love’s character, “Like her name, she’s very warm and there is a carefree aspect to her spirit that really comes from the fact that she has constructed a life for herself that’s about being in the moment and doing what she loves every day. In that way, she’s very very different than the woman that you got to know in season one, Beck, who was ambitious and driven as a writer and also as a young person in a social circle that had a certain kind of status. Beck had been quite aware of her social media presence, and Love is extremely disinterested in all of that.”

Starting with Season Two, You will be a Netflix original.
