How to watch Yellowjackets season 3? Streaming and broadcast details explored

The much-awaited Yellowjackets season 3 had its two-part premiere on Valentine's Day, February 14, 2025. Created by Ashley Lyle and Bart Nickerson, the psychological thriller drama has two parallel storylines. One follows a teenage all-girls soccer team who survive a plane crash in the Canadian wilderness in 1996 while the other reveals their life as adult women 25 years later, reckoning with their past.

In the season 2 finale, the teenagers fell out with each other, which set off a hunting ritual to determine who among them would be killed and eaten for the other to survive through the winter. The situation went further downhill as the episode ended on a cliffhanger with their wooden cabin getting burned to the ground.

With the beginning of the latest season, viewers eagerly await getting to know the person responsible for the tragedy that continues to haunt the women in the present day. The show is also witnessing new additions, most notably Academy Award-winner Hilary Swank, to the already stellar cast.

New episodes of Yellowjackets season 3 air on the Showtime network on cable television every Sunday at 8 pm ET.
