Teenaged Shauna, played by Sophie Nèlisse, at first comes off as the most popular Yellowjacket’s (Jackie) less shiny best friend who is just lucky to be in her favor. But as time moves on, it becomes increasingly apparent that Shauna has no loyalty towards Jackie at all. She’s shamelessly sleeping with Jackie’s boyfriend, Jeff, and is clearly in lo...
Taissa was and is a ruthless competitor, whether it be on the field as a teenaged soccer player (Jasmin Savoy Brown) or as a politician (Tawny Cypress). As a kid, there is nothing more important to her than winning the nationals — even if it means taking out the weak links in her own team. To that end, she kneecaps her teammate, Allie, during pract...
Natalie seems to be shaping up to be the hero of this series, or as much of a hero as the premise will allow for. Yet as a teenager (Sophie Thatcher), Natalie is a misfit – a punk rock, bleach-blonde bad girl, out of place in a winning championship soccer team. But even with that attitude, she stands up for underdogs like her fellow stoner buddies,...
Misty is the real wildcard in this production. As a teenager (Samantha Hanratty), she’s an outsider to the team, just there as an assistant to pick up towels and wash the uniforms. She’s quite socially awkward, and at one point seems to be spying on the team at their party, if the psychedelically drugged vision had by Natalie is to be believed. Onc...
The teenaged Allie (Pearl Amanda Dickson) is a shallow freshman new to the Yellowjackets. She doesn’t have much to contribute to the proceedings other than being seriously bummed that she’s not allowed to go to prom. She apparently has little talent on the soccer field. As mentioned, she gets sidelined by Taissa before they can take off for the Nat...
Jackie is the aforementioned BFF of Shauna, girlfriend of Jeff, and captain of the Yellowjackets. She also appears to be the first victim shown on screen as being hunted by the other girls in the wilderness, who make ominous bird sounds as she runs through the forest barefoot and bleeding. She falls into a trap burrowed into the snow and is impaled...
Not much has been explored regarding Van (Liv Hewson) on Yellowjacketsas of yet, other than her take-no-shit attitude. She displays it when she’s talked down to by Allie, and she does it again when she slaps her drunken mother to wake her up and get her to school. Seeing as there’s no adult actor playing her in 2021, it may be assumed that she died...
Lottie (Courtney Eaton) appears to be another secondary character on the Yellowjackets roster. She doesn’t have much to contribute to the first episode, other than that she’s very rich and that her father sprung for the private flight for the girls to nationals. Oh, and she has a prescription for Lexipine to combat her schizophrenia. Another actres...
Another Yellowjackets teammate who has little to do on-screen thus far, Laura Lee’s (Jane Widdop) only featured characteristic is that she’s a deeply religious Christian. That’s it. Jane Widdop is just breaking out, and thus has mostly supporting roles in TV shows on her resume, including Making Moves, The Kicks, and Fresh Off the Boat.
So far, Jeff (Jack DePew) shows no loyalty to his girlfriend Jackie, and has no qualms about continually sleeping with her best friend Shauna, although it must be said that she is the clear instigator of this. The grown-up Jeff (Warren Kole) has even less to do on-screen, playing an absentee husband and father to Shauna and their daughter, Callie (...
