Paramount+ has announced that Yellowjackets, the Emmy-nominated psychological horror series, will return for its fourth and final season on November 20, 2026, exclusively with the Premium Plan. A first teaser is available now, offering a glimpse at where the survivors are headed as their darkest secrets close in.
Created by Ashley Lyle and Bart Nickerson, Yellowjackets follows the dual timeline of a girls’ high school soccer team who survive a plane crash in the remote northern wilderness — and the haunted women they become nearly 25 years later. Equal parts survival epic and psychological horror, the series has traced the team’s descent into savagery while exploring how those wilderness years continue to define and destroy the survivors long after rescue.
The final season finds the Yellowjackets finally returning home, with an old flame roaring back into town bringing plans of her own. Not every homecoming is joyous, and the show appears set to sting one last time.
Season four stars Emmy nominee Melanie Lynskey (Castle Rock), Emmy nominee Christina Ricci (Z: The Beginning of Everything), Tawny Cypress (Unforgettable), Sophie Nelisse (The Book Thief), Jasmin Savoy Brown (The Leftovers), Sophie Thatcher (Heretic), Samantha Hanratty (Shameless), 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, Jenna Burgess, and two-time Academy Award winner Hilary Swank (Million Dollar Baby) in what promises to be a loaded final chapter.
The series is executive produced by Lyle and Bart Nickerson, who also serve as showrunners. Yellowjackets is produced for Showtime by Lionsgate Television and distributed by Paramount Global Content Distribution. All previous seasons are streaming now on Paramount+.
