Season one ofYellowjacketsjust ended, and were already thinking about season two.

Yes, were getting ahead of ourselves.
Yes, were still reeling from the finale.
Heres who we want playing who.

Adult Van: Lauren Ambrose
Were gunning for Van to make it out of those woods alive.
Watch an early season ofSix Feet Underand tell us were wrong.
Plus Vans whole dream is to go to New York and enjoy a soft pretzel with Tai.

AfterSix Feet Under,Ambrose focused her career on New York theater and is now a Broadway star.
It just makes sense.
So who do we want to see running a cult and kidnapping Natalie?

So weve got a better option: Shannyn Sossamon.
And that would suck!
Thats the last weve seen of him in the 1996 timeline.

Did the baby of the group survive on his own in the outdoors?
Did he find a hiding place in the cabin?
Has he been taken in by a family of wolves as one of their own?

Or did he D-word?
In a show that already takes a meta approach to its casting, this would be double-meta.
Adult/Ghost/Twist(?)

Jackie: Sarah Michelle Gellar
Okay, fine.
Jackie (Ella Purnell) is dead.
We have to accept it …
…

Were just saying, maybeYellowjacketswill jump the shark/wolf/bear in a couple years.
And if thats the case, were gunning for SMG.
Sarah Michelle Gellar was the undisputed queen of charming, popular, but often whiny types like Jackie.
She is the queen bee of queen bees.
(Not that any of this is happening, but we say lean into the delusion.)
Shaunas Baby: Isabelle Fuhrman
The odds of Shaunas baby surviving to adulthood are damn near impossible.
This is some kind of super-fetus.
And between Bens amputation and Vans plastic surgery, the girls of Team Yellowjackets are apparently gifted young surgeons.
Delivering a woods-baby would be a cinch.
Shaunas baby will have been born in 1997.
With those two requirements in mind, the best actor for the role is Isabelle Fuhrman ofOrphanfame.
We know she can do scary evil daughter.
We know she can doHunger Gameswoods survival.
Shes got enough of a family resemblance to Shauna.
Casting Fuhrman in this extremely hypothetical scenario would be big-brain.
Theyve been laying low in the background all season.
Now we just need to figure out who plays Paul.
