The survivors are back home but life is definitely not anywhere close to normal in the trailer for Paramount+’s Yellowjackets fourth and final season. The two-minute trailer teases that “homecoming is savage” and ends with teen Taissa (Jasmin Savoy Brown) declaring, “More than anything, we survived because of love,” with a straight face.
The final season stars Emmy nominee Melanie Lynskey (Castle Rock), Emmy nominee Christina Ricci (Z: The Beginning of Everything), Tawny Cypress (Unforgettable), Sophie Nélisse (The Book Thief), Jasmin Savoy Brown (The Leftovers), Sophie Thatcher (Heretic), and Samantha Hanratty (Shameless). The cast also includes Courtney Eaton (Mad Max: Fury Road), Liv Hewson (Santa Clarita Diet), Warren Kole (Shades of Blue), Kevin Alves (Locke & Key), Sarah Desjardins (The Night Agent), Nia Sondaya (Heart Shot), Jenna Burgess (Lies Between Friends), and two-time Oscar winner Hilary Swank (Million Dollar Baby).
June Squibb, Elijah Wood, Molly Ringwald, Devon Sawa, Sam Braun, and Dulé Hill guest star.
The 10-episode fourth season premieres on Friday, November 20, 2026.
Paramount+’s official synopsis reads, “Yellowjackets is the saga of a team of wildly talented high school girls soccer players who become the (un)lucky survivors of a plane crash deep in the remote northern wilderness. Equal parts survival epic, psychological horror story and coming-of-age drama, 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 past and what began out in the wilderness is far from over.”
Ashley Lyle and Bart Nickerson created the series and serve as showrunners and executive producers. Additional executive producers include Drew Comins of Creative Engine, Jonathan Lisco, Jeff W. Byrd, Sarah L. Thompson, Ameni Rozsa, and Julia Bicknell.
