With the debut of the second season drawing near, some of the cast of Yellowjackets wrapped up filming. The hit Showtime series was one of the big surprises of 2021 and quickly got renewed for its second part, which will hit the small screen on March 24.Through Twitter, the actress and protagonist of the show, Melanie Lynskey, revealed that the cast in charge of carrying out the story in the 90s has already finished its part of the filming. In addition, she took a moment to congratulate her colleagues for their outstanding work:
"Sorry to be sappy but the 90s cast of Yellowjackets wrapped yesterday and we all sat and watched episode 201 together… and other than my siblings, I have never felt this level of pride and respect and adoration for a group of people. I can’t believe their talent and their hearts."
Yellowjackets follows a talented team of high school soccer players who become the unfortunate survivors of a plane crash deep in the remote northern forest. The series chronicles their descent from a complicated team into savage clans while tracing the lives they tried to rebuild nearly 25 years later, proving that the past is never truly the past and what began in the wilderness is not over.
What to Expect from Yellowjackets Season 2
While there is still no official synopsis for Yellowjackets season 2, we can say that dealing with consequences and more mysteries is ahead. On the one hand, the end of the first part plunges us into one of those moments from which there is no going back, with Jackie's death marking a new stage for the survivors.
For example, the leadership in the "tribal" factor of Lottie, who is revealed as a survivor in the present and, apparently, is behind certain events that we have experienced in this first batch. In fact, one of the cliffhangers that the episode leaves us with is that of Nat being kidnapped by some hooded men with the strange symbol, which continues to reappear.
Yellowjackets stars Lynskey and Sophie Nélisse as the adult and teenage versions of Shauna, Tawny Cypress and Jasmin Savoy Brown as Taissa, Ella Purnell as Jackie Taylor, Steven Krueger as Ben Scott, Warren Kole as Jeff, Christina Ricci and Sammi Hanratty as Misty, Juliette Lewis and Sophie Thatcher as Nat, Lauren Ambrose and Liv Hewson as Vanessa, Simone Kessell and Courtney Eaton as Lottie and Kevin Alves as the teenage version of Travis Martinez among many more.
