The collaboration from Greg Berlanti and The Magicians‘ Sera Gamble has already found a broader audience on the streaming service giant. The show is a brilliant subversion of the “Nice Guy” trope with a charismatic cast that included Penn Badgley, Elizabeth Lail, and Shay Mitchell in Season 1. You Season 2 will pick up following the horrific events of the Season 1 finale, with Joe—seemingly now going by Will—moving to Los Angeles from New York City to terrorize a new city with his machinations. Based on Hidden Bodies, the second book in Kepnes’ series, Gamble told EW that Season 2 would not be a repeat of Season 1.
