More about You Season 5
Joe's new life may seem exciting, but it doesn't come without setbacks¡ªhe has to deal with a family that isn't exactly a fan of his. For his bookstore, he hires a playwright, played by Madeline Brewer, who makes him rethink every life decision he has ever made.
Speaking of the new season, executive producer and co-showrunner Michael Foley told Netflix's Tudum, "We always said that we would stop after five and [that], in a perfect world, we would bring Joe back home to New York. We loved the idea of things coming full circle for him. We¡¯re excited by the fact that Joe came home as such a different person than [who] we saw in Season 1. At the core of our final story for Joe is this dichotomy of the old and the new."
