4. JOE GOLDEBERG COULD RETURN TO NEW YORK Gamble told The Cut that Joe was intentionally sent afar so his character could have a homecoming story back to New York back to the old Joe.

We always knew we wanted him to go back to New York, have a homecoming, have his real name, shave his beard, and look like Joe Classic, but that he would be much more in the category of people he used to watch from afar. Now he has near unlimited resources. He has the support of powerful people and he has a lot less ambivalence about what he does in private. So, that's the setup, said Gamble.

So, it seems season five is likely to be shot in New York.

5. THERE'S A CHANGE IN THE SHOWRUNNER Gamble is stepping down as the showrunner for season five to focus on developing project. Taking her place will be longtime You writers Michael Foley and Justin W. Lo.
