Warning: Spoilers ahead for Season 3!

This season witnessed the deaths of several core characters, including Coach Ben Scott, teen Mari, adult Lottie, and adult Van. While fans may have been okay with the demise of newer characters like Edwin and Kody, the loss of these key “Yellowjackets” hit the cast hard.

Coach Ben met his end in a harrowing mercy killing by teen Natalie, leading to a gruesome fate as the soccer team turned on him. Adult Van’s murder was equally heartbreaking, especially given her terminal illness. The emotional turmoil continued with adult Lottie being ruthlessly pushed down the stairs to her death.

The actresses who portrayed the teen characters also echoed this sentiment, emphasizing the strong bond they shared with Krueger.

The emotional impact of these deaths on both the characters and the actors behind them adds a deeper layer to the already intense drama of “Yellowjackets.” As viewers brace themselves for what comes next, the cast’s emotional journey behind the scenes continues to be just as captivating as the on-screen action.
