Yellowjackets Season 3: Renewal Updates

Ahead of the premiere of the second season in March 2023, season three of Yellowjackets was confirmed in December 2022.

Chris McCarthy, president and CEO of Showtime and Paramount Media Networks, said the team was super excited to get another season locked in ahead of the release of season three.

He said: “With ‘Yellowjackets’ runaway success in season 1 and the pent-up anticipation for season 2, we wanted to maximise 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.”

Is there a release date for Yellowjackets Season 3?

The second season of Yellowjackets premiered on March 26, 2023, captivating viewers with growing anticipation for each episode. And now, season three is in the news. The exact release window for Yellowjackets season 3 hasn’t yet been revealed.

Season two was announced in December 2021, and premiered in March 2023. Considering that season three follows a similar pattern, we could get it in March 2024.

Who will star in Yellowjackets Season 3?

With Melanie Lynskey, Tawny Cypress, Christina Ricci, Juliette Lewis, Lauren Ambrose, and Simone Kessell playing the parts of the ladies in the present, Yellowjackets has an absolutely great cast.

And portraying the parts of the girls in the 1996 timeline were Sophie Nélisse, Jasmin Savoy Brown, Sammi Hanratty, Sophie Thatcher, Liv Hewson, and Courtney Eaton.

However, we won’t know for sure which cast members will return for season 3 until the end of the second season, i.e. on May 21, 2023.  However, we’d want to see as many of them as possible.
