Joe Goldberg hails himself ‘luckiest guy in New York' in You final series teaser
You central character Joe Goldberg hails himself as the 'luckiest guy in New York' in a teaser for the fifth and last series of the hit Netflix psychological thriller.
The series has followed the life of Joe, played by Gossip Girl actor Penn Badgley, as he dates women while contending with his dark impulses as an obsessive stalker and serial killer since 2018.
The upcoming series, which was initially due to air last year but was postponed amid the US actor and writer strikes, will be released on Netflix on April 24.
In the new teaser trailer, Joe can be seen looking into a mirror in a lavish bedroom before his girlfriend Kate Galvin, played by Fresh Meat actress Charlotte Ritchie, comes over to seek his assistance with fastening her dress.
As he obliges, his voiceover says: 'Love tests us, I've been tested more than most. This is the last time.
'I came from nothing, a true rags to riches story, I've been through it all.
'Unlucky in life and in love – until I met you. Kate, you opened doors for me I could never have imagined. We share a life.'
He continues: 'I would have been quick to judge in the past – rich, douchebags, aristobrats.
'We're using our power for the better to help those who aren't as lucky. Who knew I'd become the luckiest guy in New York?'
The previous teaser showed Joe returning to New York for the show's 'killer finale' and featured clips from past series of his former lovers as well as snippets of him with blood on his hands.

The forthcoming conclusion will see his perfect life threatened by the 'ghosts of his past and his own dark desires', Netflix has said.
His antics caught up with him after three seasons of You, when he faked his own death and moved out of California.
In season four, he took on a new identity, as university English professor Jonathan Moore, in London, and met a new love interest, gallery manager Kate.
EastEnders actresses Tilly Keeper and Amy-Leigh Hickman and Outlander and Downton Abbey actor Ed Speleers also appear in the fourth series.
At the end of season four, using his original name, Joe returns to New York where, in season one, he met Guinevere Beck, played by Once Upon A Time actress Elizabeth Lail, and worked as a bookseller.
In season two and three Joe was based in California, where The Haunting actress Victoria Pedretti played Love Quinn, his primary love interest, wife and mother of his child.
Based on the best-selling novel by Caroline Kepnes, the show aired on Lifetime for its first season before being taken on by Netflix.

Golf-Alligator near your ball? AI rules expert at U.S. Open will tell you what to do

Advertisement Inside a hospitality suite overlooking the 17th green at Oakmont Country Club are three demo terminals that feature an avatar of USGA rules expert Jay Roberts standing with steepled fingertips and awaiting any questions about golf rules. To interact with the Rules of Golf AI Avatar, a user must tap and hold their finger on the screen while asking a question in either English, Spanish or Mandarin and then get answered in that same language. When asked what to do if a golfer finds an alligator in the same bunker where their ball is, the avatar quickly shows some mental wit: "An alligator in the bunker, now that's a hazard." The avatar then proceeds to tell the user they can either take free relief by dropping their ball at the nearest point in the bunker where they are safe, no closer to the hole, or take a penalty stroke and drop outside the bunker. Advertisement Deloitte, in collaboration with the United States Golf Association, created the demo using four years of USGA expert-answered rules inquiry data, combined with advanced AI to provide real-time and accurate answers to rules questions. The avatar is not yet accessible to the broader community or stakeholders that the USGA works with but could ultimately serve players through an app on their phone or perhaps on a screen in their golf cart. According to Lou DiLorenzo, Deloitte's National AI & Data Strategy leader, the technology can help further educate golfers on the rules of the game, which can help ensure fair play and perhaps even speed up the pace of play. "What we are doing here is using technology to help make the game and the rules more accessible, which is good for more people to enjoy playing it under fair play conditions," DiLorenzo told Reuters. Advertisement "Ultimately we think it's going to help increase speed of play, we think it's going to help the interaction between the USGA and the courses that it serves and ultimately the membership that it represents."

OKTAGON confident in passing PFL as No. 2 MMA promotion – if it hasn't already
OKTAGON confident in passing PFL as No. 2 MMA promotion – if it hasn't already As MMA fans plead for PFL to find stability and assert itself as a viable alternative to the UFC, another budding promotion is making its own play for the No. 2 spot. After hosting its first event in December 2016, OKTAGON MMA has slowly but surely built momentum and a reputation in the industry. It has put on 86 events, with overwhelming majority happening in Czech Republic or Slovakia, with visits to Germany and England sprinkled in, as well. OKTAGON set an attendance record in October with more than 59,000 fans in Frankfurt, and that type of crowd didn't show up for no reason. The live event is not only a spectacle with shades of PRIDE and KSW mixed in, but the fights are often loaded with violence. "We really love our job, we love to sell out arenas and attract fans," OKTAGON co-promoter Pavol Neruda told MMA Junkie. "We have great TV deals around Europe, around the world actually. We're still trying to make it better. FightMatrix just said we are officially the third best promotion in the world after UFC and PFL. It's also very nice to hear that our effort is bringing it forward. We're always trying to deliver the most entertaining show for fans. This is the results. We are very, very happy with these events." Although the attendance numbers and interest in OKTAGON shows strong in Europe, Neruda, who is co-promoter along with his partner, Ondrej Novotny, admits there is still work to be done globally, and especially North America. That is still an untapped market for viewership, and he is confident it's there to be taken advantage of. Neruda said his company got a taste of what that audience can be during a streaming partnership with DAZN, but ultimately he said it wasn't as rewarding as desired, but there's confidence the next deal will have that upside. "Definitely we see North America as one of our most important markets," Neruda said. "We know that we have a great show. It's six hours of fun. It's good timing because it starts at noon and you can drink in the afternoon on Saturday with your friends and have a barbecue and watch fights. You don't have to wake up at 4 a.m. like we do to watch UFC here in Europe. It's in English, and it's a lot of entertainment. We know it has big potential. "We know the numbers when we used to be on DAZN. They were quite good, but we were not happy with the collaboration that much, so right now we are searching for a good partner, talking to different platforms in North America and we want to make a proper deal to make sure it will be super easy to access in North America for fans to watch, because we know it has great potential." As OKTAGON continues to build and hosts another event Saturday with OKTAGON 72 at Fortuna Arena in Prague (online pay-per-view), Neruda agrees there's a realistic path to taking the No. 2 position in the sport that PFL arguably holds purely by default. He said there is already data that shows the race is much closer than the casual fan might believe, and now it's Neruda's job to make sure that opportunity to grasped. "Many people say, 'But guys, you are already No. 2.' If you look at the metrics of how many people are going to our tournaments. PFL has a problem to sell small arenas for 20 pounds in the UK, for example, and we are selling every arena in Germany, Czechoslovakia at about 10,000," Neruda said. "Also the viewership, we know the numbers from DAZN, and they told us pretty fast, 'OK guys, you have better numbers than PFL and we don't even promote you that much because PFL is our product.' Depends how you look at it. I think the No. 2, if we are not there, we will be there very soon, and it's an amazing feeling. "I totally respect the UFC. That's the Olympics of our sport. I love them, and I love to watch it. It's too far. From the second place to first it's a pretty long way way. We would be very, very happy to be the No. 2 and the No. 1 in Europe for fans. Maybe for many people to be the most entertaining show in the world. In this category maybe we will be No. 1 from the perspective of some fans. That is our goal."

How much did Drake make on the Dave's Hot Chicken deal?
Like Toronto rapper Drake, the founders of Dave's Hot Chicken started from the bottom. This month, they may have all cashed in together. On June 2, the high flying chicken chain, which counts the music superstar as an investor, sold a 70 per cent majority interest to private equity firm Roark Capital in a deal that reportedly valued Dave's at US$1 billion (the deal's exact terms weren't disclosed). Atlanta-based Roark is known for its portfolio of major restaurant brands including Subway, Arby's, Dunkin' Donuts, Baskin Robbins and Buffalo Wild Wings, among others. The sale capped a dramatic rise in the fortunes of childhood friends Arman Oganesyan, Dave Kopushyan, Tommy Rubenyan and Gary Rubenyan, who pooled US$900 together in 2017 to start a pop-up selling Nashville-style chicken out of a parking lot in Los Angeles. After six months of hour-long lineups thanks to word of mouth and social media buzz, the company started slinging its tenders, sliders, fries and kale slaw out of its first bricks-and-mortar store in an East Hollywood strip mall. Eight years later, franchising has helped Dave's Hot Chicken grow exponentially into 315 store locations in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom and the Middle East. Along the way, the chicken chain has benefited from a cult following and a troop of celebrity investors including Drake, who bought his minority stake in 2021. There's no doubt Drake's hype and social media buzz — the rapper has 142 million Instagram followers — has played a part in Dave's Hot Chicken's meteoric ascent. For the last three years, the superstar has celebrated his birthday on Oct. 24 by sponsoring a free chicken giveaway at Dave's Hot Chicken locations in Toronto. The latest valuation also marks a big jump from Dave's Hot Chicken's first deal in 2019, when the four co-founders sold a 50 per cent stake in the business for $2 million to a group of investors led by Bill Phelps, who became the company's chief executive, and movie producer John Davis. The investor group included such celebrities as actor Samuel L. Jackson, journalist Maria Shriver, television host and former NFL player Michael Strahan and Boston Red Sox chairman Tom Werner. The four co-founders reportedly split the remaining 50 per cent stake. At the time of the Roark Capital deal, Forbes reported that Phelps and Davis were the company's largest shareholders with 'roughly equal stakes' (though both declined to reveal exactly how much they owned). Each of the four co-founders owned around 10 per cent of the business and sold 80 per cent of their stakes, netting a cool US$80 million each (before taxes), according to Forbes. So, how much did Champagne Papi make off of the deal? Bloomberg reported that Drake was among the company's biggest investors when he bought his minority stake in 2021, but his exact ownership percentage and how much he paid for it has never been disclosed. If the founders owned a combined 40 per cent (10 per cent each) before the deal and Phelps and Davis were the biggest shareholders with roughly equal stakes, Drake would have to own less than 20 per cent of the chicken chain, with the likely total being much lower than that. With each percentage point worth a cool US$10 million, even a five per cent stake would be worth US$50 million. The Financial Post reached out to Dave's Hot Chicken for comment about whether Drake sold any of his shares as part of the deal, but did not receive a response. Dave's is not Drake's first foray into the food world, but it appears to be his most successful restaurant investment to date. The rapper has opened two Toronto eateries in the last decade: Frings, a venture with chef Susur Lee and his sons that opened in 2015 and closed three years later, and Pick 6ix, a sports bar that opened in early 2018 and closed by the end of 2019. 'I tried the food and it was amazing': Drake buys stake in Dave's Hot Chicken chain Tim Hortons partners with actor Ryan Reynolds on breakfast boxes The rapper has also reportedly invested in green tea retailer MatchaBar and plant-based chicken company Daring Foods Inc. (the same year he bought his stake in Dave's) and collaborated with U.S. entrepreneur Brent Hocking to launch his own whiskey brand (Virginia Black) and champagne (Mod Sélection). • Email: jswitzer@ Error in retrieving data Sign in to access your portfolio Error in retrieving data Error in retrieving data Error in retrieving data Error in retrieving data
