Joe Goldberg Latest Celebrity News & Gossip

. Instead of presenting us with the same old moral dilemma—serial killer Joe Goldberg () is so hot! But also, a serial killer— the show's fourth season softens the edges of its anti-hero and gives us a new villain: the ultra wealthy. The realization hit me halfway through the first episode of part one.

Warning: Major spoilers ahead. Everything we were led to believe in the first part of season four was a lie. Joe did not, in fact, allow Marienne () to safely return to her daughter in Paris, Rhys Montrose was just some guy running for mayor, and Joe Goldberg () is still Joe Goldberg. Now you know why showrunner instructed viewers to rewatch the scenes between Joe and Rhys in her .

Warning: This story contains spoilers from season 4, part 2 of You. 

Joe Goldberg is back where it all began.Netflix's dropped Part 2 of season 4 on Thursday, and by the end of the season, Joe (Penn Badgley) found himself reintegrating himself in New York City, swimming in resources he never had access to before — thanks to Kate's (Charlotte Ritchie) inheritance following her father's death (at Joe's hand, of course) -- and turning over a new-ish leaf as he says he's ready for a second chance at life.Of course, it's a bit of a ruse. Following his failed suicide attempt in London, Joe comes clean to Kate about who he actually is (bye, Jonathan Moore!) and all the terrible murders he's committed.

A fitting conclusion. Penn Badgley is far from Joe Goldberg’s biggest fan — and the actor has often expressed his interest in watching the fictional character’s story come to an end.

By In You season four, part one, we were introduced to a new love interest for 's Joe Goldberg: Kate Galvin, a no-nonsense, self-proclaimed “icy bitch” who is fiercely loyal to her friends and surprisingly suspicious of Joe's motives. Played by Call the Midwife and Ghosts actor Charlotte Ritchie, the character creates a natural tension because she is so capable of uncovering Joe's secrets. She's a woman who, as , is more like , “someone who would've been dead at midseason.”For Ritchie, it was liberating to channel someone who doesn't care about being likable.

Netflix’s You is nearing the conclusion of its fourth season, as the final episodes are just around the corner. The second part of the psychological thriller’s latest season is set to drop on the streaming platform in March, bringing Joe Goldberg’s fourth outing to an end.

You’s fourth season arrive this month.Created by Greg Berlanti and Sera Gamble, the psychological thriller series moved to London for its fourth season where Joe Goldberg (Penn Badgley) is masquerading as a university professor.This is the first time Netflix has split a season of You into two parts, with the first five episodes having arrived on the streaming platform on February 9.The remaining five episodes will be released on Netflix on Thursday March 9 at 12am PT in the US. For those in the UK, episodes will be available from 8am GMT. Netflix released a trailer shortly after the first part premiered on the platform – check it out above.The footage confirms Victoria Pedretti, who played Love Quinn in seasons two and three, will reprise her role in the coming episodes.

You‘s fourth season would rack up significant debt, it has been estimated.The recently-released episodes of the hit Netflix show sees Penn Badgley‘s psychopath stalker relocate to the UK capital under the alias of university professor Jonathan Moore.Fans have noted how his lifestyle living in a Kensington mews apartment on a professor’s salary seems unrealistic, and according to King Casino Bonus, the overall estimated costs would indeed be unaffordable.A typical local professor’s salary would be on average £45,923, or £2,740 a month, after tax and pension deductions, while the rent at his apartment would likely be £2,240 a month, leaving only £500 each month.However, some of that would go towards council tax (£161 with a single persons’ discount), plus an average of £264 in utility bills in London, around £44 in broadband and £46 a month for his mobile plan would set him back further.On top of that would be an average of £296 in groceries, meaning overall he would exceed his monthly salary by £312, and incur £3,744 in debt by the end of the year.“Fans have been eagerly awaiting the release of Season 4 of You – not least because it’s in a refreshing new setting,” said King Casino Bonus.“After the season debuted, fans took to Twitter to express their amusement that Joe is seemingly surviving in one of the most expensive parts of London on a lecturer’s salary – and without a PhD or any meaningful qualifications, no less.“It’s no surprise then that the reality is that he’d be in significant debt.

Now that Milan Fashion Week has kicked off, all eyes are on the front row. In fact, some familiar faces have been spotted in the midst of the celebs and influencers, including a few from Albert Square. The third day of Milan Fashion Week began with the Tod's show, where Eastenders alumni Tilly Keeper could be seen sitting on the front row.The actress is known for her role as Louse Mitchell on the BBC soap from 2016 until her exit in 2020 and more recently as Lady Phoebe an aristocratic socialite who becomes caught up in Joe Goldberg's (Penn Badgley) twisted schemes in season 4 of Netflix show You.

You.Maybe it’s the way Penn Badgley looks with or without a beard. Or maybe it’s the show’s funny, yet cutting satire on the people we suffer through every day.But damn, four seasons in, You (★★★★☆), Netflix’s series about a sociopath who obsesses over women, still hits that same perverse spot it did to make it one of the streamer’s best in recent years.Originally a Lifetime Original adapted from Caroline Kepnes’s book series, You was brought to the screen by producing giants Greg Berlanti and Sera Gamble, who installed former Gossip Girl star Penn Badgley as the lead.After one season aired on Lifetime, the show migrated to Netflix, where it blew up and has remained a permanent fixture since season two.Badgley stars as Joe Goldberg, a troubled sociopath with inclinations for becoming obsessed with random women, ingratiating himself into their lives, and then killing anyone who gets in his way.On paper, this seems like a strange recommendation in the #MeToo era, but You‘s greatest strength has become its humor, focusing on entertainment and sardonic musings on everyday life from a truly messed up man.Over the first three seasons, Joe traveled across the coasts, going from being a bookstore manager in New York to a young dad in suburban California.

Breaking Bad, describing the part as “the one that got away”.The You star was asked in a new interview with Buzzfeed to name a role fans would be surprised that he auditioned for but didn’t get.“One I got close on was Breaking Bad,” Badgley said. “It was between me and Aaron Paul, we tested.” Paul ended up getting the role of crystal meth cook and dealer Jesse Pinkman in the hit series, which aired for five seasons between 2008 to 2013.Actually, that was the best television script I’d read at that point,” added Badgley.

Liam Neeson admitted that he is still uncomfortable with filming sex scenes despite shooting many over his decades-long career. During an interview with Vanity Fair, the 70-year-old actor shared his thoughts on "You" star Penn Badgley's recent revelation that he requested to film fewer intimate scenes for the fourth season of his hit Netflix psychological thriller series.

Had things gone another way, Penn Badgley would have played Jesse Pinkman alongside Bryan Cranston in “Breaking Bad”.

Penn Badgley saying no to sex scenes in YOU Season 4 has gone down well but would an actress have had the same luxury? If you are as eagle-eyed as Joe Goldberg from Netflix’s psychological thriller YOU, you may have noticed the subtle but significant dialling down of raunchier scenes the show was famous for in earlier seasons. It turns out this is because the former Gossip Girl star asked to do as few sex scenes as possible out of respect for his wife Domino Kirke.

You star Penn Badgley has said his character would “probably despise” Taylor Swift.When asked about his first effort at a TikTok video in conversation with Variety, Badgley discussed having set the song to Taylor Swift’s recent single ‘Anti-Hero’.Badgley lip-syncs to the song on TikTok, with the clip having gone viral and Swift commenting “OMG!!!!” on the social media platform.However, the actor said that his character Joe Goldberg “probably despises” Taylor Swift, despite one episode of You containing a reference to the pop icon.“I think, unfortunately, he would despise her,” Badgley said. “Because she’s successful and blonde, maybe? I don’t know, but I think he would.”In a four-star review of You season four part one, NME wrote: “Yes, it’s all very silly, but it’s also surprisingly gripping and consistently witty.”Penn Badgley recently revealed he requested to have no unnecessary sex scenes in the recent season of You, due to his marriage to singer Domino Kirke.Speaking on the podcast Podcrushed, Badgley said: “I asked Sera Gamble, the creator of the show, ‘Can I just do no more intimacy scenes?’“This was actually a decision I had made before I took the show.

Creating boundaries. Penn Badgley, Neal McDonough and more stars have candidly discussed their decisions not to film sex scenes in future projects.

Penn Badgley doesn’t actually need to be on the internet to stoke his popularity. He’s already the internet’s boyfriend, and has been since the original “Gossip Girl” premiered in 2007. Badgley became famous at the exact moment when the celebrity-industrial complex, fed by the toxic brew of the gossip sites TMZ and Perez Hilton, was at its most pernicious — which was the same moment that teenagers everywhere got their hands on their first iPhones. “‘Gossip Girl,’ if you think about it, wouldn’t have happened at any other time,” Badgley says. “That was the spirit of the show: It was Perez. It was TMZ.” Badgley made it through that poisonous period intact. But now, when it comes to joining social media platforms, he is, understandably, apprehensive. Twitter used to suit Badgley best, he being a news-obsessed man of words, but that’s changed: “I can’t really spend much time on that platform anymore,” he says. Instagram, too, feels “a bit too much like standing on a stage and trying to present,” and Badgley doesn’t need that type of exposure.

SPOILER ALERT: Major spoilers ahead for You season 4 part 2!

SPOILER ALERT: This article contains spoilers for “You” Season 4, Part 1. The story’s not over yet for America’s favorite serial killer in London. Netflix dropped the trailer Wednesday for the final episodes of “You” Season 4. When viewers last left the clandestine criminal, Joe Goldberg (Penn Badgley) had just unraveled the identity of a fellow London-based serial killer. Despite avowing to put his days of murder behind him, Joe finds himself at the center of yet another mystery when the members of his posh new friend group start turning up dead. Four bodies have already dropped and there’s no sign of the death count slowing down anytime soon with author-turned-murderer Rhys Montrose (Ed Speleers) on the loose.

“I’m not some cold-blood psycho killer.” To which all fans of Netflix’s You would say, sure Joe, sure.

Penn Badgley isn't holding back when it comes to romanticized portrayals of infamous serial killers on Netflix — even if he plays one.The 36-year-old actor, who plays fictional murderer Joe Goldberg in acknowledged the audience's growing fascination with serial killers amid portrayals of several notorious, real-life killers in TV shows and movies in recent years on the streaming platform.Badgley specifically singled out Ted Bundy and Jeffrey Dahmer, two serial killers who were given the Netflix treatment in the 2019 Zac Efron film,  and the 2022 Evan Peters series, though he never mentions the projects by name. Peters, for his part, won a Golden Globe for his performance as Jeffrey Dahmer.«You need to look at that, inside,» Badgley said when asked his thoughts on people admitting their attraction toward problematic men. «Now, to be fair, with our show you're meant to fall in love with him.

Netflix is to blame for fans loving serial killers like You‘s Joe Goldberg.The actor said the point of his character in the Netflix hit was that people were “meant to fall in love with him”. However, Badgley also said that the current trend of people voicing their attraction to the likes of Jeffrey Dahmer was on the streaming service.Taking part in an interview for Entertainment Tonight’s TikTok account (see below), the former Gossip Girl actor said people needed to reflect on what’s “inside” them if they were attracted to killers.Badgley was asked in the clip about the message he’d send to “people who are finding themselves attracted to serial killers”.

“You” Season 4, Part 1 debuted Tuesday on Netflix’s English TV List in the No. 1 spot as the most-viewed title last week less than a week after its release.As fans binged the five episodes of the season’s first half, which follows Joe Goldberg’s (Penn Badgley) next chapter as he becomes involved with London’s elite society under the alias of Professor Jonathan Moore, “You” Season 4 hit 92.07 million hours viewed from Feb.

, part of the blame falls on the shoulders of itself.While acknowledging that Joe Goldberg, the fictional murderer he plays on You, is written to be attractive to audiences, Badgley doesn't mince words when it comes to how the streamer has romanticized real-life killers like Jeffrey Dahmer. In an interview with Entertainment Tonight, Badgley said that anyone who finds themselves drawn to serial killer characters should first look inward for why that might be. But, he added, that doesn't excuse how these characters are portrayed to audiences. “To be fair, with our show, you’re meant to fall in love with [Joe].

Kate Aurthur editor Penn Badgley has been in the headlines recently, and not only because Part 1 of the fourth season of “You” dropped on Feb. 9: On his podcast “Podcrushed” last week, Badgley talked about his strong dislike of filming intimate scenes — and the internet exploded with thoughts about his remarks. He also said that he’d shared his feelings with Sera Gamble, the “You” showrunner, ahead of the season. In turn, he said, Gamble had a “really positive response and they came back with a phenomenal reduction” for Season 4. In two wide-ranging interviews for this week’s Variety cover story, which will be released on Feb. 15, Badgley spoke expansively on the subject. In our story, Badgley details how the number of sex scenes he knew he’d have to do for “You” had been a major factor in 2017 in him not wanting to play the role of serial killer/love addict Joe Goldberg. The whole series, after all, revolves around Joe’s romantic fixations, and how he gets the women he’s fallen for to submit to his charms. By design, “You” has a ton of sex.
