You star Penn Badgley has revealed which scene of the Netflix show was the most gruesome to film.

Answering 'Your Burning Questions' for BuzzFeed, the actor, who plays serial killer Joe Goldberg in the series, was asked by one fan if the scene in which he kills Jasper and puts his body in a meat grinder is the most gruesome he's filmed.

Despite initially answering yes, Penn then recalled a moment from season 2 that amazingly involved even more blood. Major spoiler ahead, naturally.

"When Delilah is dead on the floor of the cage, with her throat slashed, the amount of fake blood that was required to make that look real was more gruesome," he said.

If you've already watched season 2, you'll know that there are plenty of twists and turns in the latest episodes, but some of the surprises even left Badgley feeling a little conflicted.

Love (Victoria Pedretti) was actually the one to kill Delilah, and in an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Badgley admitted that her murderous side left him divided, saying that he was "crestfallen" by the reveal – before realising that it was actually kind of a "perfect" ending for his character Joe.

You is available to watch on Netflix now, while season one is also available via Amazon and iTunes.
