    Sophie Nélisse:I remember all the producers and the showrunners around, and I had heard tales about people being fired after the table read. Melanie Lynskey:It’s always scary. Nélisse:[Melanie] obviously speaks in a little higher pitched voice than I have. I was like, “Oh, I’m going to get fired after this. They’re not going to see the resemblance....

    Lynskey:I think the writing is really good. The character’s so consistent from then to now, and that helps. We both were so on the same page about the energy that we wanted her to have. Neither of us are people who would do well trying to remember mannerisms or trying to be like, “Oh, this is the bit where I blink twice.” We’re too instinctive. Nél...

    Nélisse:I mean, not much. They hinted that Shauna was going to be pregnant, and that was honestly kind of it. We knew that Jackie was going to die because she was only there for one season. We would just get the scripts a week before. For me, it kind of worked because I try to see it as younger Shauna doesn’t know what’s going to happen to her — sh...

We had different costumes and that was so fun, because we were always in the same costumes, and we all looked so pretty. It felt like we were shooting a completely different show. We were like, “Oh, this is going to be so fun. We’re all going to be e...

    Nélisse: We usually did nothing with my hair because I just wouldn’t wash it. I literally would not wash my hair for a week straight, which is so convenient because it’d take me no time. I’d show up, my hair was greasy, knotted, ratty, and they’re like, “You look amazing.” It wouldn’t look as cute when I would pull up to the gym afterwards and peop...

    Nélisse: I didn’t really realize [Yellowjacketswas a hit] for a while, to be honest. I mean, I’m from Montreal, and the show was obviously a hit in Montreal, but there wasn’t as big of a buzz as maybe in LA. I like being out of it because it keeps me a little more grounded. I didn’t see the posters everywhere. I didn’t see everyone talking about it...
