Last winter, viewers got hooked on a new show on Showtime called Yellowjackets. And because of its huge success, it's no surprise that the show got renewed for a second season right away.
If you are looking forward to the release of Yellowjackets Season 2, we've got the answers to the internet's most pressing questions!
When Is Yellowjackets Season 2 Coming Out?
The cast and crew started Season 2 production in August 2022. By fall, showrunner and co-creator Ashley Lyle sent a tweet saying that they are still "deep in production."
As revealed by the show's official Twitter account in December, Yellowjackets Season 2 will be released on March 24, 2023.
The tweet comes with a cryptic video that doesn't give much away about the upcoming season's story.
Will There Be a Yellowjackets Season 3?
Here's some exciting news: Showtime has announced that they have renewed the show for a third season. This announcement was made ahead of the show's premiere for the second season.
The announcement was made by Showtime and Paramount Media Networks' President and CEO, Chris McCarthy, to Variety last December 15, 2022:
“With Yellowjackets' runaway success in Season 1 and the pent-up anticipation for Season 2, we wanted to maximize the momentum by fast tracking Season 3 now. The show’s ambition is only exceeded by its execution, and I thank the incredible creative team behind it, including Ashley, Bart, Jonathan, eOne and the Showtime team, for turning this into such a success.”
Who Is Part of Yellowjackets Season 2 Cast?
As promised, more survivors from the plane crash will show up in Yellowjackets Season 2. The cast of the show will include the following names:
- Melanie Lynskey (as adult Shauna)
- Sophie Nelisse (as teen Shauna)
- Christina Ricci (as adult Misty)
- Samantha Hanratty (as teen Misty)
- Juliette Lewis (as adult Natalie)
- Sophie Thatcher (as teen Natalie)

The second season will introduce new characters and include guest appearances by:.
- Lauren Ambrose (as adult Van)
- Simone Kessell (as adult Lottie)
- Elijah Wood (as Walter)

Ella Purnell's character, Jackie, died at the end of Yellowjackets Season 1 so it's unlikely that she'll be returning in the second season.
