Yellowjackets is a critically acclaimed horror-thriller series that was created by Ashley Lyle and Bart Nickerson. It premiered its first season on Showtime back in November 2021 and has seen much success over the years, including being nominated for seven Emmys. Due to all its success, the show has been renewed for three seasons so far, and fans have been patiently waiting for the new season to be released. Now that the release date for Yellowjackets season 3 has been announced, we can all relax and wait for its arrival.

The show centers around a high-school female soccer team who are involved in a plane crash while on their way to a championship game, leaving them stranded in the wilderness with no help or means to escape. This storyline takes place in 1996. The horror series also has a second timeline set in 2021, where we see the now-adult survivors dealing with the aftermath of what they experienced out there in the wilderness.

This show has a huge and talented ensemble cast made up of actors such as Melanie Lynskey, Tawny Cypress, Sophie Nélisse, Jasmin Savoy Brown, Sophie Thatcher, Christina Ricci, Courtney Eaton, Liv Hewson, Kevin Alves, Simone Kessell, Lauren Ambrose, Samantha Hanratty, Steven Krueger, Warren Kole, and so many others.

There are two new cast additions for season 3, Joel McHale and Hilary Swank. However, it's unknown at the moment who they will be portraying in the series. We can't wait to find out, though!

Yellowjackets season 3 is set to premiere with two episodes on Paramount+ on Feb. 14, followed by its linear Showtime debut on Feb. 16.
