    We greatly apologize for the delay in getting this up! It looked like we were going to make it in time, but sadly, the wilderness decided to intervene with some technical issues. Fortunately since this is the finale, we will refrain from offering any sacrifices until next season. I'm also sorry to say that there were some sound issues that popped up in post production, which contributed to the delay. You may hear a tiny bit of crackling in the second half of the episode.

    Unpack the explosive Yellowjackets Season 3 finale with The Antler Queens! We dive into the teen timeline’s brutal hunt, finally revealing Pit Girl, Natalie’s daring heroics, and Shauna’s rise as Antler Queen. In the adult timeline, Tai’s heartbreaking farewell to Van, Lottie's murderer revealed, and Shauna’s unraveling family life setting the stage for Season 4 chaos.

    Join Dawn, Jazz, and Kelly for a detailed recap, wild theories, and hot takes on survival, betrayal, and power.

    Created by Ashley Lyle and Bart Nickerson (Narcos), YELLOWJACKETS is the saga of a team of wildly talented high school girls soccer players who become the (un)lucky survivors of a plane crash deep in the remote northern wilderness. Equal parts survival epic, psychological horror story and coming-of-age drama, the series chronicles their descent from a complicated but thriving team to savage clans, while also tracking the lives they’ve attempted to piece back together nearly 25 years later, proving that the past is never really past and what began out in the wilderness is far from over.

    In season three, as summer arrives, the Yellowjackets face a fragile victory—the brutal winter that nearly claimed them is finally behind them, but distrust in leadership and tension within the team jeopardize their chances of being rescued. In the present, long-buried secrets from their pasts begin to surface. As the women fight to keep their lives from unraveling, they must confront a chilling question: who are they really, and what dark truths are they hiding from each other and themselves?

    YELLOWJACKETS stars Emmy nominee and Critics Choice Award winner Melanie Lynskey (Castle Rock), Emmy nominee Christina Ricci (Z: The Beginning of Everything), Tawny Cypress (Unforgettable), Emmy nominee Lauren Ambrose (Six Feet Under,), Sophie Nélisse (The Book Thief), Jasmin Savoy Brown (The Leftovers), Sophie Thatcher (Heretic), Samantha Hanratty (Shameless), Courtney Eaton (Mad Max: Fury Road), Liv Hewson (Santa Clarita Diet), Steven Krueger (The Originals), Warren Kole (Shades of Blue), Kevin Alves (Locke & Key), Sarah Desjardins (The Night Agent) and Simone Kessell (Obi-Wan Kenobi), with Elijah Wood (The Lord of the Rings trilogy) returning in a recurring role.

    Two-time Academy Award®-winning actress Hilary Swank (Million Dollar Baby) guest stars this season and joins the all-star cast, along with Joel McHale (Community).

    YELLOWJACKETS is executive produced by Lyle, Nickerson and fellow showrunner Jonathan Lisco. Drew Comins of Creative Engine also serves as executive producer along with Jeff W. Byrd, Sarah L. Thompson, Ameni Rozsa and Brad Van Arragon. The series is produced for SHOWTIME® by Lionsgate Television.
