'You' Season 2: Joe Golberg moves to LA and here are the new characters he will meet along the way

Understandably, since Joe has moved to a new city -- and because he killed multiple characters from Season 1 -- we have a whole new set of people to get to know.

The second season of 'You' will be released a day after Christmas, and this time around, we will see Joe Goldberg move to Los Angeles. If the trailer that has been released is any indication, Joe begins his games quite early in the season -- and it looks like he might have changed his name to Will.

Understandably, since Joe has moved to a new city -- and because he killed multiple characters from Season 1 -- we have a whole new set of people to get used to. But don't worry, they might fill the voids in Joe's life -- or they might prove to be a thorn in his backside.

First up, are the Quinn siblings. Love Quinn is the girl Joe falls in love with this time. Played by Victoria Pedretti, Love is the daughter to the owners of a high-end grocery chain and works as a chef. Joe is immediately taken by her and goes back to his same old self trying to win her like in the book, 'Hidden Bodies' by Caroline Kepnes. Love is clearly Beck's equivalent in this season.

Love's twin brother, Forty, is a drug-addled aspiring screenwriter who loves hanging out with celebrities. Played by James Scully, Forty will endlessly seek Joe's help to write his screenplays. Overly-attached relation to the girl Joe loves? Forty is definitely the Peach Sallinger of Season 2.

When Joe moves to LA, he meets his neighbors, Delilah and her younger sister, Ellie. In the books, Delilah is a gossip reporter and is killed by Joe when she finds some of his secrets. But with the addition of Ellie -- a character absent in the books -- we can expect a different storyline for these sisters. Since they might be closely involved in Joe's life, let's hope at least one of them makes it out alive. It is likely that Ellie will be Paco's replacement in Season 2 -- a kid Joe feels he has to look out for.

Then there is Calvin, Joe's manager at the bookstore where he finds employment. In the series, Calvin will instead be a grocery store manager. What we know about Calvin from the books is that he is quite superficial and tries to be many things. Calvin is most likely Ethan's (bookstore clerk in Season 1) counterpart.

We will also meet Henderson, a celebrity comedian who is always wearing the latest styles. We do know that there's something about Henderson that rubs Joe the wrong way, and chances are, you will feel that too. We are definitely getting Benji vibes from this character.

'You' Season 2 will release on Netflix on December 26th.
