You is based on the bestseller of the same name by Caroline Kepnes and revolves around the question "What would you do for love?". The series follows Joe Goldberg (Penn Badgley), a man who is willing to do anything when love is at stake.
In addition to Badgley, Behnam, Ploszek, Francis and b (photos from left to right) join the previously announced Charlotte Richie, Madeline Brewer, Anna Camp and Griffin Matthews for season five.
Season four of You was set in London where Joe took on the new identity of Jonathan Moore, an English professor, while following Marienne (Tati Gabrielle) across Europe. Details about the focus of season five are still being kept under wraps.
Behnam plays Dominique. Although she appears to be an aloof and out-of-touch young woman, Dominique is in fact passionate, smart and fiercely loyal. Despite her wealthy upbringing, she is a stubborn caretaker among her meager artist friends.
Ploszek portrays Harrison, Joe's brother-in-law. As a former professional football player and trophy husband of Reagan Lockwood, Harrison must balance the needs of his family with his own heart's desires.
Francis plays Clayton, a pretentious, self-absorbed, wannabe author whose vengeful, controlling nature catches Joe's attention.
b portrays Phoenix, who is cunning, resourceful and has a strong moral code. Their young lives were shattered by tragedy, setting them on a course that led to New York and a search for a new purpose.
