Here's How You Can Watch 'Yellowjackets' Season 3 Early (& Watch The First Footage Now)

Is Yellowjackets going to have a season 3?

Yellowjacket Season 3 Plot

Yes Yellowjackets season 3 is on its way, and thanks to this release date announcement, we get a first look at some footage from new episodes. This installment follows our favorite mix of young adults as they fight for survival after a cuh-razy season 2 finale that killed Nat (and shocked fans). The finale was so wild that I really don't know where they'll go from here, but if there's one thing Yellowjackets knows how to do it's surprise us.

The new season will feature 10 episodes, and one thing creator Ashley Lyle teases is that the new season will merge the characters' teen selves with their adult selves. “Some of it is really character-based; some of it is more literal,” she tells Vanity Fair. "There are a couple of big things in this season that were in the very initial pitches before we even took it out to networks, that we’ve finally got the chance to execute and to play out."

"How do you change while you are in your core, in your essence, the same person you always were?" she adds. "How much are you hiding that, and how long are you able to do that, is a question that we’re playing with this season."

And for Nat, Ashley admits that looks a little different. "We all have a future self who has died, and we don’t know how that happened," she continues. "But that doesn’t make who we are now any less vital. In our minds, that is also Natalie’s story. She has a lot of life to live and a lot of story to tell. And the fact that there is a future self that met a tragic end is really the most universal thing that we could probably do on a television show."
