Showtime dropped the first “Yellowjackets” Season 2 teaser trailer on Friday, offering a first look at what’s in store for the buzzworthy drama series’ next season.
In the plane crash timeline, we see the New Jersey high school soccer team facing a tough winter filled with snow and harsh conditions. And in the present day timeline, Misty (Christina Ricci) is barely holding it together before she meets a new friend, played by Elijah Wood.
The original drama series premiered in Nov. 2021 to critical acclaim and quickly became the talk of the town, with everyone abuzz with theories around the bifurcated story. Created by Ashley Lyle and Bart Nickerson, the show takes place in two timelines — in 1996, when a soccer team gets stranded in the wilderness after a plane crash, and in present day when the survivors are reckoning with what actually happened out there.
Like “Lost” with a more biting sense of humor, viewers latched onto the series pretty immediately and it was quickly renewed for a second season.
Watch the “Yellowjackets” Season 2 trailer in the video above. The series premieres on Showtime on March 24.
The cast includes Melanie Lynskey, Christina Ricci, Juliette Lewis, Tawny Cypress, Sophie Nélisse, Jasmin Savoy Brown, Ella Purnell, Steven Krueger, Sammi Hanratty, Liv Hewson, Courtney Eaton and Sophie Thatcher.
The Season 2 ensemble adds Wood, Lauren Ambrose and Simone Kessell.
