Being queen bee only gets you so far—and, behind the scenes, the ‘Yellowjackets’ team always had much, much more in mind for theirs.
Pretty, rich, and popular, the suburban New Jersey teen in Showtime’s horror series is the captain of an all-star girls soccer team in 1996 and has big plans to go to Rutgers—assuming, without really asking, that she’ll live with her high school bestie, Shauna , and that their dorm room will be pink and green. Sure, her boyfriend, Jeff . An outfit Jackie wears at a party before the crash is girly and fitted because, Schley says, she’s “an attention seeker.
Stuck in the forest with girls she used to control, Jackie spends that part of the season “always slightly standing separate from the group,” says Purnell. She’s frequently seen with her arms crossed and is not on board with a lot of her teammates’ ideas for housing or eating. Gestures are more manic, and her way of talking becomes more frantic or higher-pitched.
“She’s not isolating because she doesn’t want to get her hands dirty,” Purnell says. “She’s isolating because she feels truly alone. She doesn’t trust anyone. She hates everyone. There’s a slightly unhinged thing about her.” Her breakdown is also reflected in her costumes. “Her clothes are cleaner than other people’s in the body of the series, and she’s still wearing pretty pulled-together looks, like a vest over a button-down shirt. I don’t think anybody else is really putting together their looks in that same way,” Schley says.
