Another day, another new cast member for You. 

Earlier this week, Netflix confirmed that production for the second season was underway as they shared two behind-the-scenes snaps from the first table read.

Progress on the highly anticipated new episodes seems to be moving along pretty fast, too, with plenty of the newest cast members – from the new Beck to some of Joe’s new potential victims – have been announced.

Now, another new cast member has joined the show – and she could cause some serious trouble for Joe.

Need for Speed’s Carmela Zumbado has joined the show as Delilah Alves, a reporter and Joe’s new neighbour.

According to DeadlineDelilah is a “natural investigative reporter” with a “keen nose for a story” – and soon, she ends up “dangerously interested” in Joe as she’s convinced he’s hiding something.

Which…yeah, that’d actually be pretty fair to say.

It comes as it was revealed Gotham’s Robin Lord Taylor has also joined the series.

The actor has played Oswald Cobblepot – also known as The Penguin – in the Batman prequel series since it began.

But as Gotham’s final season rumbles on, it emerged that Lord Taylor has signed on to You as “thoughtful, personable and highly intelligent” guy named Will.

But he ends up getting trapped in a bad situation (which, if we had to guess, Joe Goldberg will play some part in).

The second season of You is expected to follow Joe’s move away from New York City.

 Loosely based on Caroline Kepnes’ second book, Hidden Bodies, it will follow the kidnapper/murderer/stalker/bookstore manage as he leaves NYC for Los Angeles, where he meets Love Quinn – an aspiring chef working as a produce manager in a high-end grocery store.

However, Love will be a completely different character to the main love interest of the first series, Beck. She’s not into social media and is more interested in living an fulfilling life.

The Haunting of Hill House’s Victoria Pedretti will play the character.

You showrunner Sera Gamble told EW:

“I binged Hill House, and she was incredible. And then a couple of days later, [executive producer] Greg [Berlanti] sent an email asking, ‘Have you seen Hill House? Have you seen Victoria Pedretti, wouldn’t she make a perfect Love?’

“Leave it to Greg to put that together.”
