The dossier
The prophet of the wilderness
Lottie Matthews begins as the wealthy, seemingly shallow peacemaker of the team. Stripped of her medication in the wilderness, she begins experiencing vivid visions, slowly constructing a terrifying, blood-based mythology to give the girls hope.
Courtney Eaton and Simone Kessell brilliantly capture the two halves of Lottie’s life. They portray a woman who is simultaneously deeply traumatized by what she created and completely unable to let go of the power it gave her.
She is the eerie, spiritual center of Yellowjackets. Lottie forces the audience to question the line between genuine madness and supernatural connection, anchoring the show’s descent into primal darkness.
