Warning: Spoilers for 'Yellowjackets' season 2. Do not read if you have not watched episode one!
While the series did not resurrect Jackie, she was fully alive as part of the visions Shauna Shipman was having of her late best friend while sitting with her dead body in the meat shed. In the weeks that followed Jackie's death after Shauna forced her out of the cabin where the remaining teenage survivors had taken refuge, she started spending hours talking to a version of Jackie, who berated her for various indiscretions in her past.
"So, it was really, in some ways, about Shauna," Lisco continues, before noting that even though"Ella Purnell was amazing," bringing Jackie back was a way"to say this is where Shauna is psychologically at the beginning of season 2. And so, I felt like this was a great device through which to do that."
While the scenes were disturbing to watch, for Nélisse it was an opportunity to work with her friend again."It was such a treat," she says."I mean, Ella was one of my closest friends in the first season. And it was really devastating losing her. She just really left such a hole and such a blank space in our group when she wasn't there."
When asked about getting to return, Purnell says,"It feels great." Though, this time around, they filmed on a set versus being on location like last season."They rebuilt the cabin on a stage and so it was a blast from the past," she reveals.
