The second season of the hit series You is about to debut on Netflix and you might be wondering if Elizabeth Lail is returning as Beck in the new episodes.
SPOILER ALERT – the character was killed off at the end of the first season by Penn Badgley‘s Joe and she gave him the idea to frame the murder on her therapist, played by John Stamos.
So, will Beck be making a return to the show? Well, we have some differing statements from the show’s two stars.
Elizabeth herself has denied that she is coming back. She told Radio Times, “I am sad to not continue that journey with him. But it’s only him, and I think they’re shooting it in LA, and so nothing will be the same. Hardly anything. It’ll be a whole other story…The unfortunate thing is, the woman doesn’t win in the end and I’m so sick and tired of that.”
Penn says that Beck will be back in episode two of season two, though it’s not clear yet if it’s new footage or existing footage.
“There’s a revisitation of that [the murder] with Joe in the second episode of the second season, where you get to see a bit more of the hard reality of what he did to her,” he told ET. “Whereas you’re sort of, for better or worse, mercifully saved from seeing that in the first season. That always haunts me, thinking of Beck. It’s like, ‘You really did that in the first season, and we’re still going, and people really like this guy?!’ That’s disturbing. In his mind, she’s not even dead. I’m not giving you some kind of spoiler, she’s dead. In his mind, everyone’s still alive because the pain that he feels he suffered at their hand is very much still alive.”
