The “Obi-Wan Kenobi” actress plays the villain from “Yellowjackets”.

Actress Simone Kessell, who played Breha Organa (Princess Leia’s adoptive mother) in “Obi-Wan Kenobi”, entered the second season of “Yellowjackets” as the adult version of Lottie, the character of Courtney Eaton in plot flashback.

The inaugural season finale left clues that Lottie not only survived the frosty adventure in the 1990s, but was the villain behind the show’s current events.

The series takes place over two time periods, alternately following a high school women’s soccer team, isolated in the frozen mountains for 19 months after their plane crash, and some survivors of today, who are now adults trying to keep. everything that happened a secret.

So far, the series has centered the storyline on four survivors, played by Melanie Lynskey (Shauna), Christina Ricci (Misty), Juliette Lewis (Natalie), and Tawny Cypress (Taissa) in their adult versions. But the lead roster rises to six in Season 2, with Simone Kessell playing Lottie and, announced last week, Lauren Ambrose (“Servent”) as the adult version of Van, a character played by Liv Hewson in her phase. adolescent.

Now, with the new lineups, the plot will follow six confirmed survivors from the 90s, not counting Travis, whose adult version was promptly murdered in the first few episodes.

A critical and audience success, “Yellowjackets” received seven Emmy nominations, including Best Drama Series. She also had nominations for Screenplay, Direction and for actresses Melanie Lynskey and Christina Ricci.

Filming for the second season will begin later this month in Vancouver, Canada, but there are no plans for the premiere yet.

Produced by the American pay channel Showtime, the series is made available in Brazil on the Paramount + platform.
