Simone Kessell Cast as Adult Lottie in Yellowjackets Season 2

Simone Kessell (Obi-Wan Kenobi) has been cast as adult Lottie in Yellowjackets Season 2, Showtime announced on Wednesday. Courtney Eaton, who plays teenage Lottie, has been upped to a series regular.

Yellowjackets follows a New Jersey high school girls' soccer team in the '90s after their plane crashes in the remote northern wilderness. The series centers on the girls in the immediate aftermath of the crash and 25 years later, as adults hiding a dark secret about what happened out there.

At the end of Season 1, it was revealed that Lottie survived the wilderness and is still alive as an adult — but she might be a cult leader.

Showtime also announced last week that Lauren Ambrose would play adult Van, played in the '90s-set timeline by Liv Hewson.

Yellowjackets Season 1 is available to stream on Showtime.
