Fans of the dark psychological thriller series Yellowjackets are in for a treat as the release date for season 3 has been officially announced for February 14, 2025, coinciding with Valentine's Day. This intriguing timing adds a layer of irony given the show’s themes of survival and cannibalism after a plane crash leaves a group of high school soccer players stranded in the wilderness. Following the delays caused by last year's writer and actor strikes, excitement builds around the season, which will feature returning cast members alongside new additions such as Joel McHale and Hilary Swank. The latest season promises to continue the harrowing tale of survival and moral decay, kicking off on Paramount+ with a linear premiere arriving shortly after.
