Hannah is smart, said Sutton.
Shes playing the game.
She doesnt want to stay out here.
Ashley Sutton as Hannah in the ‘Yellowjackets’ Season 3 finale episode ‘Full Circle’Darko Sikman/Paramount+ with Showtime
Shes just trying to make it another day.
DEADLINE:Tell me about first auditioning and joining the cast.
I just connected with Hannah so much.
Ashley Sutton as Hannah in ‘Yellowjackets’ (Kailey Schwerman/Paramount+ with Showtime)
And I was like, Yes, I do.
When can I leave?
Can you tell me about that side of the character and bringing out the inner calculating teen girl?
But she is now smarter.
She has more life experience.
She is able to see what its like to survive.
She has the knowledge now.
DEADLINE:I definitely feel like the part where she killed Kodiak was that kind of switch.
Can you tell me a little bit about the dynamic with Kodiak and then also Edwin.
SUTTON:I had so much fun with Nelson [Franklin] and Joel [McHale].
Theyre so funny, theyre so cool.
Tell me about that big reveal.
SUTTON:I read [episode] 10, probably four times.
The script is so amazing.
I do feel like the alliance with Shauna is very strategic.
Again, Hannah is smart.
Shes playing the game.
She doesnt want to stay out here.
Shes just trying to make it another day.
Hannah kind of sacrificed Kodi for the greater good of a few people.
It was so real and so vulnerable, and I think the most honest version of Hannah.
And Sophie [Thatcher] and I, we did that a couple of times.
They really, really, really want to go home and save as many people as possible.
DEADLINE:And we do see it a little bit but its hinted at more in the future.
She hasnt been able to see the cute teenage girl thats still just trapped out here in this environment.
And Im really excited to see what the writers do with that in the future.
I feel like Hannah asked Melissa to watch out for her daughter, and she did.
DEADLINE:And the show has also teased that Hannahs eventually going to get killed.
Has there been talk about that?
SUTTON:I dont know the answer.
I wish I did.
I have no idea.
I mean, I honestly didnt know what was happening at the end of this season for Hannah.
So, I have no idea.
I have my own theories of what could happen, but I dont know.
But I have no idea what the writers have in store.
Well just have to wait and see.
DEADLINE:Whats been your favorite part about playing Hannah and joining the cast?
SUTTON:Well, I think 10 is such a beautiful episode.
Theres a couple of really creative moments that the crew made happen.
And I was like, One hundred percent.
Shes found his backpack.
