Truly Sophie Thatcher is amazing. Her portrayal of Natalie was riveting, she became my favorite character on the show. She seems like an old soul and her acting was amazing!!
She was fantastic a few years ago in the little sci-fi movie Prospect with Pedro Pascal, i was blown away by her performance. The whole time when i was watching Yellowjackets i was like "i know her from somewhere..." and i just realized today it was the kid in Prospect. Great potential that girl.
It’s weird that Sophie Thatcher doesn’t get more recognition (in these comments and just in general). I thought she was fantastic in this show.
@photag216 big facts
First saw her in Prospect, knew she was gonna be a star
@@jdrummerdd I just watched that the other night and can't believe it didn't get a sequel! I get that it was a lower-budget film but I was really hoping to get a larger perspective of the world they'd built. Loved Pedro Pascal's character too.
She is superb, got excited when I saw her on Boba Fett
Facts.
The actresses playing Taissa knocked it out the park. They were like the same person literally lol
huh?!?!
Okay- so everyone is talking about this interview with Juliette. She's totally fine up until the question about what the writers have in store for season two and beyond (this interview is before they were renewed). From what I gather, she is more of a movie person and not used to television where the entire script is already written. Like the said in the interview, she didn't know her character was going to be so depressing and coming straight out of Covid that might have been a huge bummer for her to play such a dark role. What she said about the 90s and "I like being in the present" is referring to the fact that she is not a new actor. She's been doing this since she was 19 years old and is a veteran actor (same with Christina Ricci). In the 90's and beyond, a lot of media focused on her drug addiction than on her acting, and she takes her job very seriously. I'm just bummed so many people are hating on her. Yeah, it was rude to storm off the stage but knowing how she feels about her specific way of acting and as an artist, it's understandable. She seemed happier in the interviews around the second season and has praised everyone that has worked on the show. I'll die on the hill defending her haha.
right- she was probably happier this time around because she knew she'd be leaving. what's your point?
I'll stand with you on that hill!
well i didnt find her rude, i was more intrigued actually
Young Natalie dying laughing when Juliette walks out is so cute lmaooo
That was so punk rock!
I would die of laughter too lol
Ooooft now it looks like that diva attitude and decision to leave to show has killed the show. S2 was bad and that's the ostensible reason why.
Diva behavior? No, they have her a character that was shit. She didn't like it so she left
@@shiloveslife Slating the writing before the show aired?!? Signing up to do 5 and leaving after 2, but wanting to be in two but make it a stupid story where she's happy.....
They should have let her kill self in S1 and be done with her. S2 was awful and I gotta blame her leaving and ruining the plan for that.
Damn, it should have been clear that Juliette was not happy. I wish the writers would have given her more story than just 'chasing Travis'.
Rip Nat we should have knew what was gonna happen based off your body language, thank JL for being a phenomenal actress and being an amazing nat
Yup… very disappointing.
"should have knew" lol😂
Sophie and Juliette really feels the most alike in real life.
Also I'm obsessed with Ella Purnell. I really love Jackie ... reminds me of Nancy from Stranger Things. But I love the whole dynamic of her character.
yeah this is cray like they both can play sisters in real life and people would buy it
That is exactly who I thought of as soon as she came on screen! Nancy. You get it!
It’s funny that you say that, because I literally had to pause the show to look up the actress playing young Natalie- I thought it was “Nancy” too!
I thought the same about the Nancy parallel
The irony of Juliette passing on the first question, but the answering at the end, in time to walk off. 😹👏
Juliette Lewis is a fucking rock star. She lived the 90s HARD and going back to it obviously opened up some wounds. I read that she didn't like the path Natalie's character took as opposed to how she was initially presented to her, and I'm hoping that, in season two, she's given the opportunity to evolve beyond the broken person she portrayed this season. That being said, I wouldn't be remotely surprised if she decided not to come back as she's notoriously picky about what she does in her career (and is still out there fronting Juliette and the Licks, which she's made a priority over her acting career). She's definitely more of an artist than someone who shows up for a paycheck.
I can't wait for season two Natalie. She knew Travis didn't kill himself but everyone just dismissed her and then Shauna really played on her doubts so she'd stop asking about Adam. Now that she know he didn't and Lottie has kidnapped her all bets are off. Like she said getting out of rehab she's found her purpose again.
To be brutally honest lol. She acts the same in every role Lol. After following her career as long as We have. It just seems like she is playing the same character each time she acts. It actually annoys me. 🤷♀️. And I hate being critical 🤦♀️
@@AMYV3 I agree!! I love her but I feel like it is the same character, different movie. But I did like her character much better than Shauna.
my exact thought when she immediately walked off the stage. for anyone else i'd be like, 'ok wow a little abrupt and rude' but for Juliette Lewis i'm like, 'ok wow what a badass bitch.' lollll that being said, damn she really seemed unhappy w/ her character. i kind of disagree because i see Nat as the heart of the show. she's the only one of the survivors with empathy. she's so broken because she actually feels things but they are so overwhelming she drinks or uses to escape them. Tai and Shauna just shove that shit down and put on a fake smile. Misty has no feelings that extend beyond herself. i really do hope Juliette comes back and i THINK she will because this project has gotten so much traction and fan fare.
@@AMYV3 Totally agree! And the *checking her nails* while the other actresses speak is so damn rude. 🙄 I feel like she takes herself WAY too seriously.
Melanie Lynskey: Oh, we love each other so much! Sorry, I'm gonna cry!
Juliette Lewis: My character is HORRIBLE.
But she did say the cast is so talented!
But also... Didn't she read the script beforehand?
@@MauraTierney Actually with these TV shows I don't think the actors get given all the scripts for that season straight away. They might not even have written them all at first. And they did a pilot which was made about a year or so before the rest of the series.
I listened to a podcast with Christina Ricci where she said didn't know everything about her character at first and understood her more at the end of the season, andshe wished she could have redone her performance in the first few episodes.
I wouldn't say her character is horrible, I'd say she's a victim of some severe trauma! Maybe Juliet isn't proud of this role and that's her business. It's not for us to question or dismiss. Personally, I adore her & always have. She's the biggest, best badass out there!
@@pjm-xc8ny But Scientology is really not that cool. I know she says the cult helped her get sober, but it's still a cult.
@@MauraTierney so is Christianity. Leave her alone.
Its hilarious how unbothered Sophie Nélisse always is in the these interviews ('oh i guess i have to scream now' lol) and yet she's the standount performance of the show for me
huh??????
Her performance is so engrossing and her ability to convey emotion via facial expressions is incredible to see in someone so young. She’s definitely a standout and I hope to see her in future projects.
@@amandasosa272agree 100%
she's so funny to me idk why, like her voice and mannerisms give an innocent vibe
These women are at the top of their game I'd say in these roles they portrayed. All of the characters are very good, but wow Natalie, Shauna, and Misty are some of the most interesting characters I've seen on the screen in a while. This show is unique and the performances are all spot on. Great job everyone!
After the masterpiece Midnight Mass, thanks god I found this show. This show saved me after watching Dexter New blood. The finale of that show ruined everything.
thank you juliette lewis and christina ricci for giving me a reason to take a chance on this show and introduceing me to all these other young acttresses whom are fabulous, i must say this show is a bit on the darkside and its not the normal thing i watch but the story is good so im invested thus interested in the fate of all these characters
Agreed, and I love young Nat and was happy to see her in Boba fett
Same here. So happy! How are you feeling about S2?
When I heard everyone raving about this series I wasn't interested because it appeared to be a show for really young people. But after looking it up and seeing Lewis and Ricci as major cast members I decided to try it out. Season 1 was fantastic and all the performances across both seasons were far better than the show itself.
I also tried it for Juliette and Christina Ricci! They’re both so awesome-sad about JL leaving, I dk why they didn’t give her a better storyline
I’ve loved Melanie Lynskey since I saw her in Heavenly Creatures with Kate Winslet! Juliette Lewis and Christina Ricci are also so iconic! Great show and casting! ❤️
Juliette Lewis!!!!!! I live for her. She is so smart . And truly gets her craft.
I cried at the end of episode 10 damn it was an emotional rollercoaster as everyone’s acting was top tier. I’ll give this show a 9/10.
Oh my god, that scene with Shauna just wailing over discovering what happened to Jackie was heart breaking, I was almost shell shocked.
Glad for Christina and Juliette, nice and well-deserved "comeback" 😎
& good for Melanie, about time she is getting all the recognition 💪🏽
I went to college with Tawny and it's so great seeing her in this role!!! Brilliantly done all of you. ❤️
😂
Think Juliette Lewis was going through a breakup. If not, could be one of hundred things…just as others pointed out. Perhaps the constant addiction focus could’ve been triggering? In any case, she’s a fantastic actress and is such an engaging presence in Yellowjackets. The whole cast is fantastic. Hope JL is doing well.
Juliette/Nat is my fav character in this TV show. ❤️
Mine is Misty.
At least someone has maturity
same
For sure! Me too! Love Natalie! 💞💞💞
Juliette Lewis is awesome! She’s one of my favourite actresses ♥️

Mesmerizing
Old Misty young Misty
Old Natalie young Natalie
They legit look like they could be sisters, the folks who casted this show deserve an Emmy
This is one of my fav shows this year!!
''I wouldn't say scary but, like, sombering... if that's a word. It is now! (...) They went to town, they like chopped a plane in half and threw around the forest!''
I love her 😂😂😂
I’m literally obsessed and can not wait for season 2!!!
What a great cast, love this show!
I love this show! It gave me nostalgia as I am close in age to the adult characters.
Christina Ricci brought me to the show and I’m addicted now. Saw the whole season in one day lol
Their acting was like so beyond believable. All of them! Kudos to these casts!
Could not AGREE MORE :)
😂
YES
All great actors in this show. The adult & teenage cast. Awesome work
This cast is the best cast ever. I’ve never felt so strongly about a cast before, but they’re all phenomenal at what they do, makes the show so much more enjoyable. As for Juliette, things happen everyday, and while luckily for like me I get so sit at home alone when I’m upset, she has to come to these for her cast mates and the show. Basically we all have off days and we’re all entitled to feel how we feel. She was upset but I don’t think it had anything to do with the cast mates at all and I don’t think she was trying to be cold to Tawny either. Sometimes when you’re upset and someone tries to cheer you up it’s not always going to make your mood 100% better, but you still appreciate it on the inside. We have no idea what was going on. I just hope everything is well for her and also Nat actually is a fantastic character, I never disliked her, I’ve considered her someone who is just in a lot of pain from the past and wants to run from it. Everyone copes different. Excited to see where her storyline goes, I hope Nat gets happier soon.
This is truly one of the BEST SHOWS IVE EVER SEEN.. super unsettling .. creepy.. perfect matches wirh their adult / kid counterparts .. I’m dying to see ep 10
The teen/adult match ups are truly inspired bits of casting.
Ditto to this !
Phenomenal 💜
AND NOW ITS OVER 😢
What is oniongram?
Aww bless little shaunas heart. She said “I don’t even look like her” ummm you look exactly like her.
she probably met the blonde hair blue eyes, but other than that they have similar vibes
This cast is extremely talented. Love the series.
This show is the best ive seen in a damn lonnnggg time
LOVED this, thank you.
Can't wait for season 2 I'm hooked! It's too good.
I don't know why Shauna thinks she doesn't look like Shauna.That could be her mom
They resemble each other, so I didn't get why she said that. It's obvious that they're playing the same character.
@@Aprilpie13 They look exactly alike to me.
They only look alike because young Shauna dyed her hair and is wearing contacts. She's usually blonde with blue eyes
@@joannecicchetti2173 nah
@@joannecicchetti2173 not only that but her nose is a bit rounder and she has fuller lips. Melanie has a sharper nose with thin lips.
This was such a fun press interview. I really like this show and watching this cast. ❤️
I enjoyed all the young ones they were so nice and happy. Always adored & admired Melanie❤. Ricci❤ is always lovable. This is the first time seeing Tawny ❤ in something and her intensity, delivery & timing is greatness. All 3 of them seem kind, caring and respectful.
Melanie's so tanlented. I'm glad she's starting to finally get some recognition
Series is great so far loved it.
Great cast, really good show and great music choice
HOW IN THE HELL DID I NOT KNOW MELANIE WAS FROM NEW ZELAND??! I’ve loved her forever. I’m in shock right now lmao
Same! I was like what the 😂😂😂
Same here! I taken aback with her accent. I always assumed she was American.
Right... I'm trying to think did she have that accent in 2 and a half men? I loved her since Rose.
Known her since Heavenly Creatures.
OMG same
This show is fantastic!!!
Amazing cast and also an amazing series😊
This phenomenal cast and its writers made Sunday night a hellish nightmare blend of LORD OF THE FLIES, ALIVE in SPICEWORLD, SIX FEET UNDER with ALIEN…and blew my mind. I was/am/know every one of these people and have never seen a better ensemble of stars without a star.
Fabulous, incredibly talented group of ladies. Excellent show!
its stupid watch the Film Alive 1993 ten times better and really happend
Great show ladies!!
fuck the mystery about cannibalism,I want to know what's going Behind the scenes w/ Juiette and the cast.She walked off like George Jefferson.
lol
George Jefferson??? 😂😂😂
@@Claaasic Like George Jefferson from The Jeffersons. Like she didn't want to be there or talk to anyone.
@@queenoffairiestarot oh lol I haven’t seen it! I thought you were referring to the President!
Maybe she had to pee lmao
Can we take a second to talk about the absolute FITS and LOOKS these ladies are serving. I'm here for it
I always noticed the way young Nat sort of speaks in that slow/unintentionally sexy way Present-day Nat speaks and thought about the amount of detailed work it must have taken to make something so small become so effective. These girls are insanely talented.
I feel so old. Christina Ricci was one of my absolute idols and just such an absolute badass. She’s so different from when I was a teenager.
god I love this cast so much
The Lord of the Flies for the Ladies. Great writing and the cast as well , both younger and older.
To me the ressemblance between the older cast and their younger self is crazy !! I don’t know who castes these young women but they’re all amazing actresses as well !
I think the hair/makeup people did a good job with MFQ but I don’t agree that Samantha and Christina Ricci have much resemblance. The others definitely moreso.
Wow....the girl that plays high school Misty is STUNNING!!!
what a girls!) Supercrew! Love all of them
They're are so cool! I love them!
Melanie is my favorite actress rn, i love her voice she looks so sweet
It's amazing to know that Christina was pregnant at the time of shooting.. so she's almost at the end here!
And every young character is sitting behind their older ones, except for Misty and Natalie, why is that xD
I don’t think it was intentional. Someone just screwed up
They're all gorgeous in their own way!!
Even though Misty plays such a significant part, she can act that significant part. Love this show when does S2 start !?!
Finally!!!!! A fantastic show that is well written and even better acted. Love that the main characters are women. All of them are great actors, but Lewis and Ricci steal the show.
All of these women are awesome
a friend of mine was a supporting actor in Sweet Home Alabama.....when he met Melanie....he did not know she was the other girl in Heavenly Creatures....she said to him, "did you ever see a movie called Heavenly Creatures?" and he was shocked and embarrassed. she wasn't being mean.... she said that it happens all the time, people not knowing about her in the movie and she was very sweet and funny.
Man it's hard not to hear Jinx when listening to Ella Purnell now. What a great voice.
I really want to hear the playlist that Juliette and Sophie made
3:32 Damn, didn’t even notice this spoiler on first listen…Dirt eating, tree hiding, “the bad one”
Great show!
I love Juliette Lewis. She looks unhappy here throughout the interview her body language seems like she's upset about something. wonder what happened...
wonder if they kill her character off.
@@kattykat9600 i mean the story is about her younger self. Younger Nat obviously does not die (there wouldn’t be a current) and i see no point to kill her off present time.
@@Jeeper1378 lmao. I assumed it would be obvious I was talking about her current self not former....LMAO or there would be no current self as you so astutely pointed out. lol
There is no growth for her character obviously and she might not like that aspect
Well
They made some changes it looks like cause she’s progressing quite nicely in season 2
Juliette really seemed she didn’t want to be there at all…lol
I cannot be the only one who thinks that Ella Purnell looks like a young Susan Sarandon??? I legit thought it was her granddaughter or something.
@Delana Taylor Online I think they are leaning so heavy into Jackie being dead that she's not. And yes for looks but not for age. Susan Sarandon is like her 70s now lol
@Delana Taylor Online it would be an amazing plot twist if she is alive and in the woods doing some weird shit lol
I think she looks like a young Robin Tunney.
Maybe it’s the hair, but I thought Natasha Lyonne.
You are the first other person I've seen say this, but I could not stop talking about it every episode!
Juliette Lewis must have been having a bad day because she's much nicer and more outgoing in her instagram videos. She sometimes does live videos out of the blue and seems to actually enjoy speaking to her followers and seeing their comments. Though she adopts a "Today I'm going to talk about this" approach and doesn't pay too much attention to the stream of little comments and questions, which is actually a smart thing to do because on livestreams the comments are mostly quite banal. She's quite eccentric but she's obviously lived an interesting life and shows some wisdom.
Juliette Lewis’s attitude could be related to her personal life/career. She could have felt trapped by the production by playing something similar to what happened to her (drug, love loss, depression..).
She dealt with heavy drugs/cocaine addiction and depression when she was young, after the break up with brad pitt, while at the very top of her fame & career. This caused her to disappear for years, and kinda slowed down/stopped her career.
Even tho she has been clean for decades, the medias keep on bringing up this subject in every interviews and she is really annoyed by it.
She has all rights to be upset if she wasn’t fully aware of the character’s storyline…And for an actress we rarely see on screen, who’s constantly reminded of her past, that’s probably not the kind of scenario she would have chosen.
As someone who overcame her dark path she might have liked a different direction for Nat’ who already survived a hardcore childhood, the crash situation and years in the wood… and who’s now relapsing?
She probably finds these drab interview questions and events pretty lame - wouldn't you?
@@AM-fy8po i get it its so true. But i mean no one made her take the role. Idk the way she was acting during this from the get. Like telling the jnterview she wants to pass on the very first question and how she got up before it was completely over and just walks out. Idk she definitely mustve been having a bad day.
I think she wanted to give the younger actors more time to speak.
@@TheChance1991 I guess, but still, that's someone doing their job so it's nice to be respectful towards them. Idk. I guess since this is being filmed and uploaded onto UA-cam, the questions are aimed at what they think the general audience would like to know about. Which tends to be standard stuff. It's probably meant to be casual and entertaining, not an in-depth interview. Speaking as someone who did interviewing on an amateur level - if you want to dig a bit deeper and come up with more original questions, there has to be space for that on the platform you're doing the interview for. Maybe there wasn't here.
It is true that the cast have repeated themselves a lot though - I've heard a lot of these answers before, like how they prepared for playing the same person, so I can imagine that getting boring for them. The interviewer is just doing a job though, maybe she's not even in charge of the questions, so acting so overtly disinterested is a bit impolite imo. Then again we don't know what else she had on her mind.
Good for Her! 💖
Wow..I would have never guessed Melanie had an accent like that. She does a great American accent . my girlfriend wanted to start the show and I wasn't thrilled. But then after 3 episodes I would ask her if she wanted to watch episodes.
Wow I did NOT recognize the actor who plays Teen Misty, I had to google her name to figure it out lol
Holy crap! I just realized who she was HaHa
Juliette is clearly unhappy to be there from the get go☹️☹️ hope she’s Ok
They probably not paying her
Her worth. Next year this will be one of the biggest shows on TV. Pay them accordingly.

by the way the fucking music is AMAZING
My So Called Life, hell yeah!
That's my show till this day
Sophie Thatcher and Juliette Lewis all day 🖤🤘
Host: I’m a nervous flyer so..
Juliette: BaHaHaHaHaHaha….
Lol
Sophie Thatcher is incredibly intelligent and beautiful.
Dude... Juliette Lewis did NOT want to be there. I love her so much, but this was hard to watch.
After the end of this video I think it's fair to assume Juliette Lewis might not be coming back for season 2!
I was thinking the same thing. Something is up there, she's not happy.
Well
She’s back for season 2 and clearly the writers decided to change her character a tad wouldn’tya say ?
@@jenn6294 no.
I love Sophie Nelisse and Sammy Hanratty
Seems like Juliette got more pissed than ever when told by the lady next to her to 'STOP, Girl!'.
Damn Juliette hot footed outta there quick!
😂😂😂
Samantha was a crazy girl in Shameless too
I've only seen about 3 interviews and they're discussing the same things. I can only think of how tiresome these things can be for the actors but you gotta do what you gotta do!
Obsessed
Man, oh, man..... the interviewer and her questions are really getting on the nerves of Juliette Lewis.
the way Juliette left and the girls behind were laughing because of it....lol
It looked really rude l i can’t believe she was behaving like this. Awful
@@yuncreations lol who gives a fuck. its juliette lewis. she can do whatever the fuck she wants.
@@notstevelam lol 😝
Samantha wasn't laughing, she was like WTF!
@@notstevelam Huh??? You make no sense, that's like saying Roseanne can say whatever she wants and keep her job. Oh never mind....lol
I feel the 90s vibes in all these ladies, even Jasmine. She just does not know it. =)
I think, Juliette and her man Brad Wilk, the former drumer of RATM and Audioslave broke up before filming or during. I follow them both and noticed they stopped following each other around the time this show was being filmed. Maybe that's why so much attitude. 🤷🏽♀️
Ella Purnell looks more like Christina Ricci IMO
I feel like Juliette has an issue with Sammi. In the very beginning Sammi sort of does an exaggerated laugh and it looks like Juliette just cringes about it. And everytime Sammi talks Juliette is totally checked out. Sammi seems like a very bubbly person and this probably clashes/annoys Juliette.
I LOVE HER y’all know who I’m talking about
Juliette is clearly passive aggressive here. Christina is pregnant as all fuck but is at least being game about talking about the show and nice to the host and cast mates, not to mention thanks the audience for being there. I read that Tawny and Christina became close irl. I know the young cast were too, including Liv, Courtney, Jane, Keeya and Alexa
Juliette is being extremely grumpy here. Ruins the whole video
she was triggered by the 90s question and answers. her mood shifts.
@@clinkedylinkedy1 She was acting shitty before that
True, her attitude was rude and annoying. Really showed she didn’t want to be there 😬
So Christina Ricci is pregnant? That was my first thought.
awesome sauce
Hey great comment bro!
Juliette Lewis looks like she is waiting for her ex to reply back to her 15th text in a row. Kind of preoccupied in her thoughts. 🤣 but who am I? Right? Keep rocking it J.L. you are a wonderful actor.
