Season 3

According to an interview with TheWrap the third season aims to recapture the essence of the first, signaling a return to the intense, survival-driven narrative that initially drew in audiences. Showrunner Ashley Lyle hinted at the challenges the characters will face as they continue to navigate the treacherous wilderness.

“We’re in the midst of [writing] right now. I don’t want to give too much away, I always get in trouble. I will say we see Season 3 as a little bit of a return to Season 1 in terms of the vibe, though. All I will say is that the girls have been out there for awhile and they’re thriving.“

Production schedule

Yellowjackets filming set to begin on 14 May 2024 through to 24 October 2024. Season 3 is expected to air sometime in 2025 on Showtime/Paramount.
