“Yellowjackets” Will End With Fourth and Final Season
While a fourth season of “Yellowjackets” has already been ordered up by Showtime, it has been announced this weekend that the fourth season will serve as the final season.
Creators Ashley Lyle and Bart Nickerson write in a statement posted to social media, “After three incredible seasons, and great consideration, we’re excited to announce that we will be bringing the story of Yellowjackets to its twisted conclusion in this fourth and final season.
“We’ve always known there would come a point when the story would tell us it wants to end, and it’s our belief that our job — our responsibility — is to listen. Telling this emotional, wild, and deeply human story has been a profoundly meaningful experience and a true honor for us, and we’re so very grateful to the brilliant cast, crew and writers who have bravely gone on the journey with us to bring it to life. Most of all, we want to thank the fans who have stuck with us through every moment, mystery and meal — the Hive is nothing without you!
“We can’t wait to share the final chapter with you and hope you find it…delicious.”
The Final Season is expected sometime in 2026.
You can stream all episodes of “Yellowjackets” on Paramount+ with Showtime.
The third season of “Yellowjackets” broke records for the streamer, with the premiere becoming the most streamed episode in the show’s history. The Season 3 finale later broke the record, generating 3 million global viewers in seven days across linear and streaming.
“Yellowjackets” is the saga of a team of high school soccer players who become the survivors of a plane crash deep in the remote northern wilderness. The series chronicles their descent from a complicated team to savage clans, while also tracking the lives they’ve attempted to piece back together nearly 25 years later.
In “Yellowjackets” Season 3, which premiered on Valentine’s Day, as summer arrives, the Yellowjackets face a fragile victory—the brutal winter that nearly claimed them is finally behind them, but distrust in leadership and tension within the team jeopardize their chances of being rescued. In the present, long-buried secrets from their pasts begin to surface.
As the women fight to keep their lives from unraveling, they must confront a chilling question: who are they really, and what dark truths are they hiding from each other and themselves?
