The return of “Yellowjackets” to Showtime comes with a mix of good and bad news. Unfortunately, fans will have to wait until 2025 for “Yellowjackets” Season 3. The delay is attributed to the impact of the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes that significantly disrupted Hollywood over the past year.

However, there’s a silver lining for fans eager for more content. A special bonus episode of “Yellowjackets” is set to be released before Season 3, offering an interim fix to the anticipation.

The latest update on Season 3’s timeline comes from Deadline, highlighting that the writers’ room for “Yellowjackets” resumed operations in September. This signals a positive development, and fans can expect news and updates to start flowing in as the production progresses.

Although “Yellowjackets” Season 2 received nominations at the recent Primetime Emmys, it did not secure any awards. Created by Ashley Lyle & Bart Nickerson (“Narcos”), “Yellowjackets” is described as a blend of survival epic, psychological horror story, and coming-of-age drama.

Stay tuned for further details on Season 3 as they unfold, and in the meantime, enjoy the bonus episode as a precursor to the much-anticipated return of “Yellowjackets” to the small screen.
