About “Yellowjackets”
“Yellowjackets,” which premiered on November 14, 2021, is the saga of a team of wild talented high school girls soccer players who become the (un)lucky survivors of a plane crash deep in the remote northern wilderness.
The series chronicles their descent from a complicated but thriving team to savage clans, while also tracking the lives they’ve attempted to piece back together nearly 25 years later, proving that the past is never really the past and what began out in the wilderness is far from over.
