The next chapter of gritty Paramount Plus<\/a> thriller Yellowjackets has been hit by a substantial delay due to last year\u2019s Hollywood strikes \u2013 but the creative team are now setting sights on a return window.<\/p>\n The acclaimed series follows a dual timeline, split between 1996 and the present day, following the teenage survivors of a plane crash as they scramble to survive in the wilderness and attempt to quash their trauma decades later.<\/p>\n Last year\u2019s season 2 finale<\/a> reunited many of the principal characters in the modern period for a climactic stand-off at a sinister wellness retreat managed by Lottie (Simone Kessell).<\/p>\n Tragically, one prominent member of the group didn\u2019t survive the experience, with fans eager to know how that crushing loss will change the status quo moving forward.<\/p>\n Alas, we shouldn\u2019t expect answers anytime soon: Deadline<\/a> has reported that Yellowjackets season 3 will not premiere until 2025<\/b>, due to the aforementioned industry disruption.<\/p>\n On the bright side, with production now underway, we could be getting some juicy morsels of information in the coming months \u2013 from casting to episode synopses \u2013 so we\u2019ll be keeping this page refreshed with the latest updates.<\/p>\n Yellowjackets season 3 is coming to Paramount Plus in 2025<\/strong>, according to Deadline.<\/p>\n The publication confirmed suspicions that the hit thriller is far behind its intended schedule due to the Writers Guild of America (WGA) and Screen Actors Guild (SAG) strikes that dominated much of last year.<\/p>\n Indeed, co-creator Ashley Lyle tweeted back in May 2023 that only one day of pre-production was completed on Yellowjackets season 3 before the show was put on ice until further notice \u2013 eventually starting up again in September.<\/p>\n No indication was given of when exactly in 2025 we can expect new episodes, but with work on the show now proceeding at pace, we sincerely hope to see it back on screens in the first quarter<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Well, we had exactly one day in the #YellowJackets<\/a> S3 writers\u2019 room. It was amazing, and creatively invigorating, and so much fun, and I\u2019m very excited to get back to it as soon as the #WGA<\/a> gets a fair deal. #1u<\/a> #unionstrong<\/a> \u270a\ud83d\udc1d<\/p>\u2014 Ashley Lyle (@ashannlyle) May 2, 2023<\/a><\/blockquote>Yellowjackets season 3 release date speculation<\/strong><\/h2>\n
