After almost a two-year hiatus,Yellowjacketsfinally returns with season 3 in February 2025. Like previous seasons,the show releases episodes weekly,meaning fans must wait for the third one after the two-part premiere. The critically acclaimed thriller drama takes place in two timelines — the first being in 1996 when a plane containing a high school girls' soccer team crashes in the wilderness, leaving them stranded for months, while the second flashes forward 25 years later when they’re adults. As forthe ending ofYellowjacketsseason 2, the finale contained a couple of cliffhangers, resulting in high anticipation for season 3.
WhenYellowjacketsseason 3 premieres,the story picks up from where season 2 left off.So, fans won’t have to wait long for answers (and more mysteries to arise). Meanwhile, theYellowjacketscast remains just about the same. However, as the episodes go on, the audience can expect to meet a handful of new faces (including Hilary Swank and Joel McHale’s mysterious roles). Following the two-part premiere ofYellowjacketsseason 3, though, fans must wait for episode 3 to learn more.
