Yellowjackets star Melanie Lynskey discusses how Sophie Nélisse’s “inherent strength” helped define Shauna.
You don’t get better than the casting of Showtime’s Yellowjackets. The series takes place in 1996 and 2021, following what happens when a high school girls soccer team’s plane crashes on the way to nationals and they’re forced to do whatever it takes to survive out in the wilderness for 19 months. Then, the 2021 material shows how the survivors are coping with what they’ve done as they try to outrun a tragedy that’s seemingly always on the verge of consuming them all over again.
But right now we’re putting the spotlight on Lynskey’s collaboration with Nélisse on the role of Shauna. Yes, Shauna’s in a very different place during the tragedy and then after it, but it’s of the utmost importance that the character maintains a set of constant qualities so that the transitions from 1996 to 2021 and back again feel seamless.
“Watching the table reads as the season went on, we all did Zoom table reads and I got to see her beautiful performance before we shot anything and was just endlessly inspired. Because I think the scripts do a really nice job of transitioning from one timeline to another, and so it was really helpful to hear Sophie’s performance and have that in mind for where to pitch mine emotionally so it would be kind of seamless. And I also just feel like I got very, very lucky.
