As someone who’s been hooked since the very first episode of Yellowjackets, I can confidently say that Season 3 is shaping up to be the most chilling yet! The recent First Look trailer has me on the edge of my seat, especially with the ominous hints about potential character deaths.
Amongst all the forthcoming horror TV series expected to give viewers goosebumps, I’m particularly eager and excited for Yellowjackets Season 3, set to intensify the romance of Valentine’s Day when it premieres on the 2025 winter TV lineup. As the new episodes are now ready for marketing, Showtime has been offering fans plenty to ponder upon, with a trailer filled with footage serving as our latest clue about which characters might meet their end next.
The trailer certainly makes it look like one of our main survivors is doomed, while also setting up a bloody introduction for the new character portrayed by Oscar winner Hilary Swank. Let’s do some dissecting!
Looks Like Coach Is On His Last Legs…Er…Leg
In simple terms, the final episode of Season 2 ended on a bleak note for the survivors as their cabin was set on fire, with Coach Ben appearing to be the culprit. This act might have been prompted by his anger towards everyone else for consuming the deceased Javi, who had drowned recently. Consequently, in Season 3, he could face suspicion and severe treatment from the soccer team, all while grappling with intense hunger due to the lack of food sources.
Following the Season 3 trailer, it’s hard to imagine anyone in a more dire state than Coach. In the brief glimpses we see, he appears disheveled with an unkempt, shaggy beard. He seems to be in a panicked state at times, perhaps under attack. There’s also a very ominous scene of him standing in the background, staring at a rope that appears to be tied into a knot. This could suggest a tragic turn for Coach, hinting at potential suicidal thoughts, or it might imply his fellow survivors are planning to use the rope in some way, raising questions about their intentions towards him.
Melissa Might Be Doomed As Well
Initially appearing as an unconventional player for the Yellowjackets team during Season 2, Melissa Jenna Burgess hasn’t significantly influenced the series’ drama thus far. However, she seems to take center stage in several trailer scenes, and one of these instances suggests that her moment under the limelight may not be without peril.
It seems ambiguous who the antagonist might be, but there’s a brief scene in the trailer where one of the teens appears to shove Melissa against a tree and brandish a knife towards her neck. Keeping in mind how trailers typically present things, it’s unlikely that this will lead to Melissa being killed by throat slashing. However, this intense moment may suggest that Melissa will have a significant role in the season, possibly making her a potential victim later on. I apologize for any concern this might cause, Melissa.
Hilary Swank’s Character Is Seemingly In Trouble As Well
It’s anticipated that actress Hilary Swank will join the main cast of Yellowjackets for Season 3, though specific details about her character remain unclear at this time. A brief glimpse of her in the trailer is all we have so far, but it offers several intriguing hints since she was initially announced as a cast member.
From where I stand as a gamer, it’s a bit hazy which timeline Swank’s character belongs to. It seems logical that she’d be in the adult characters’ timeline considering her age. However, there’s no concrete evidence to support this theory, and frankly, my knowledge on vehicles isn’t extensive enough to determine if the vehicle in the shot could have clarified things.
The way she responds leads me to believe it’s something massive and beyond human control, such as a tsunami or a swarm of colossal bees. However, consider if this event doesn’t align with the present timeline, and what Swank’s character observes is actually a horde of reckless teenagers wearing homemade masks, whooping and charging at her from the woods. That situation would undoubtedly warrant an unfiltered exclamation of “Oh my goodness, this is a mess!
Check out the trailer below if you haven’t yet already!
In the latest preview, it seems that Jackie, played by Ella Purnell who was previously deceased, unexpectedly appears to Melanie Lynskey’s character Shauna, possibly suggesting a hallucination. Moreover, there’s a glimpse of Elijah Wood’s Walter, ensuring viewers that he will indeed return. I am absolutely thrilled!
In a sweet twist of timing, Yellowjackets Season 3 is set to premiere on Valentine’s Day, February 14, 2025. You can catch up on the thrilling events of the first two seasons by subscribing to Paramount+ or Netflix, where they are both streaming.
