Lauren Ambrose says she's still processing her exit from the show and the nature of her character’s death.

Ambrose and Tawny Cypress were both surprised by this narrative choice.

“I assumed it would be the cancer that did her in—this ultimate survivor who is unable to survive this very real and human thing,” Ambrose says.

Both Van and Lottie die in Yellowjackets ’ third season , just a year after the adult versions of both characters were introduced.

The episode is at its most moving when Ambrose and Hewson —which is to say, Van ’s teen and adult selves—share the screen.

Cypress doesn’t know what's next for Taissa , but she expects Melissa 's role to be expanded.
