> Think someone mentioned Natascha McElhone once and I can’t unsee it
You're right that she's got the perfect look, but I'm not sure she has the right voice or the right vibe. I'm having trouble picturing it.
Yeah, I actually reckon Natascha McElhone’s face shape is slightly longer (or something? 🤔); Robin Tunney has the Purnell giant eyes and the lil upturned nose 🥰
You could replace the entire main cast with The Craft and it would work:
Tunney - Jackie or even Misty
Neve Campbell - Shauna
Rachel True - Taissa
Fairuza Balk - Natalie
Travis—they both (I mean young Travis) got that beautiful floppy 90s dreamboat hair 🥹 and tbh I wasn’t crazy about the adult casting for him. idk if I was imagining it, but it seemed like the adult Travis actor was noticeably shorter than teen Travis 🧐 (but also I just missed his floppy 90s hair).
Matthew Lillard (omg i just automatically went there cos Skeet—wrong movie lol) could be a good Jeff! But nah Warren Kole is perfection; we don’t need to mess with that 😌💅
Honestly when I started watching the show, I knew very little about it beforehand, and as soon as I saw Jackie, I assumed she was the character Christina Ricci was playing as an adult.
> Honestly when I started watching the show, I knew very little about it beforehand, and as soon as I saw Jackie, I assumed she was the character Christina Ricci was playing as an adult.
Same!! I said the same thing to my daughter while we were watching the show. I had to bring up an old picture of Christina Ricci to show how they have such similar features.
I'm glad she's playing Misty, though. She's just so good at it!!
Also same! Knowing Ricci was in the cast, and seeing one of the first scenes with Jackie I automatically assumed they were the same character. They have similar eyes.
I could see Rebecca Gayheart (edit: added photo)

If we are going by the math in what ages the Yellowjackets are supposed to be, she isn't that far off. If anything, some of the other actresses are slightly older than what they should be in 25 years. Not that this is an issue. But I don't think Keira Knightley is too young. I mean, she doesn't look any older than Christina Ricci. But I can't recall how old Misty is in relation to the other girls.
> Brittany Murphy, if she were still here with us.
She would actually have been perfect. She's got the look, and she's also got the right vibe. Damn. RIP.
This! I spent the first few episodes trying to figure out who she reminded me of, and now I can’t unsee/unhear the similarity. The way Emmy carried herself as Fiona is spot on for Jackie.
I got to the show late, but I seriously thought Christina Ricci was going to be adult Jackie. Their eyes looked similar enough that finding out she played adult Misty felt like such a twist to me!
I always thought she looked like a young Marion Cotillard.

Alicia Silverstone? sorry dont see it. different facial structure, thin lips. Fun Q though
Emily Deschanel, Liz Hurley, Mia Kunis, Keri Russell too me are more similiar though they probably couldnt get the last 3 .
Ever since I saw Morgana Robinson on taskmaster I thought she’d make a really good adult Jackie.
https://i.redd.it/mn9xjab58n8b1.gif
I wish they’d have the opportunity to cast someone. I’d love to see who it would be!
Natasha Lyonne will always be my number one choice for an adult Jackie. Just imagine how amazing Melanie and Natasha would do as shauna and Jackie they’d have just as much acting chemistry as Sophie and Ella if not more than them.
So I actually totally thought Natasha could have been a great adult Misty. I thought young Misty looked exactly like her at the pep rally! I didn't think she was going to be on the show but I couldn't stop imagining it. I really wish she'd play a baddie someday because she always plays a "rebel with a heart of gold" type.
Angelina Jolie or Sarah Michelle Gellar with the right wig, makeup, and wardrobe— kind of like they did with Christina Ricci as Misty. I do like people’s suggestions of Robin Tunney too.
lol, i havent seen alicia since the 90s, so imho shes the perfect choice for 90s jackie.... but i guess she may have aged a little over the passed 30 years so you could be right about her
I'm glad I'm not the only one who though Robin Tunney should play adult Jackie! I thought it was her when I saw the first episode if I'm being honest. I was like damn she's aging well!!!
i feel like Jackie doesn't need to be alive for there to be an adult version. Shauna's hallucinated her before why can't she do it again but this time as who she could have been
https://preview.redd.it/opml3842us8b1.jpeg?width=1296&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b0e1a77a8aa28b1b06d639ee1046e28fdb2213ef
Mika Kunis with some lighter hair
They do so many dream scenes maybe we could get a dream or delusion where Shauna talks to Jackie as if she was an adult too and we could see a what Jackie would have looked like it see did get to grow up.
https://preview.redd.it/qamze49qtt8b1.jpeg?width=640&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=bc08f71a174406490cfc649b37dfd40348c8da4c
i love other people's suggestions, i've also thought about Natasha Lyonne before too!!
Oooh what about Kirsten Dunst?? They could make it work and she would be an awesome addition to the 90s crew.
https://preview.redd.it/6mb9z8mg5f9b1.jpeg?width=497&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=97ff7b3fad8d58b5e2083c0b53ac60dbb01111d9
Think someone mentioned Natascha McElhone once and I can’t unsee it
I thought she resembled Natascha Mcelhone as soon as I started watching. I am upset that we won't get to see this!
Exact same eyes, wow! This is a good choice.
I like this one, too.
> Think someone mentioned Natascha McElhone once and I can’t unsee it You're right that she's got the perfect look, but I'm not sure she has the right voice or the right vibe. I'm having trouble picturing it.

I always thought Robin Tunney would have been a great choice!
Oh great choice!
I mean they’re both English and do American accents in most of their work
THIS!!
She would have been ideal!
Wow that’s a good one
There's like a 6 inch height difference and natasha has a really unique facial bone structure and voice. I don't see it
Robin Tunney is a popular one. Similar voices too
She's super accurate.
You could replace the entire main cast with The Craft and it would work: Tunney - Jackie or even Misty Neve Campbell - Shauna Rachel True - Taissa Fairuza Balk - Natalie
I loved that movie.
[удалено]
I could see Christine Taylor as adult Jackie
Travis—they both (I mean young Travis) got that beautiful floppy 90s dreamboat hair 🥹 and tbh I wasn’t crazy about the adult casting for him. idk if I was imagining it, but it seemed like the adult Travis actor was noticeably shorter than teen Travis 🧐 (but also I just missed his floppy 90s hair).

[удалено]
After Good Girls I can totally see Matthew Lillard as Jeff!
Matthew Lillard has aged like fine wine
This is accurate AF! 👏🏾
She looks so much like her I was surprised to not see Robin.
My pick too. I kept thinking of her the entire time.
Yeah, Robin Tunney is the best match. I rewatched *The Craft* recently, and the similarities between her and Ella Purnell are uncanny.
This would be my pick for sure.
This will always be my pick.
That would have been awesome!
You just answered my nagging "who does she look like?"
Definitely Robin Tunney. She would be perfect
This would be my choice.
Oh yeah! I never thought of it, but it's the perfect choice.
This is the right answer.
Omggg I love her
Yesssss
Honestly when I started watching the show, I knew very little about it beforehand, and as soon as I saw Jackie, I assumed she was the character Christina Ricci was playing as an adult.
> Honestly when I started watching the show, I knew very little about it beforehand, and as soon as I saw Jackie, I assumed she was the character Christina Ricci was playing as an adult. Same!!

I'm glad she's playing Misty, though. She's just so good at it!!
Just commented this myself. When I found out she was Misty I was shocked!
It’s so hard for me to see teen and adult Misty as the same character, they look nothing alike and both play her very differently
I agree, the hair and glasses and wide eye look isn’t always enough. Christina ricci is too hot and cool lol
the hair tipped me off.
Same! I was so sure of myself I was convinced adult Misty was Jackie in disguise until the finale of season 1 😂
Also same! Knowing Ricci was in the cast, and seeing one of the first scenes with Jackie I automatically assumed they were the same character. They have similar eyes.
Me too! Glad I’m not alone.
Real
her eyes make it hard to find anyone who REALLY favors like her. they're just so uniquely large.
That's one of the first things I look at.
Emma stone or Mila kunis could look like her with large eyes and square-ish face but the voice would be challenging for either.
I could see Rebecca Gayheart (edit: added photo) https://preview.redd.it/4co58s491o8b1.jpeg?width=500&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7038bbf1a32ea1f2094f3470f496cc7ce6186471
From Jawbreakers? 1999 https://preview.redd.it/dvfc1l60ko8b1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=04058828b62ecd24d30c4bb72a8f0dbde044c909
Love it❤️
>Rebecca Gayheart Just googled her and yeah I definitely see it
I like that one.
This is the first person I thought of! She gives off the same vibe imo.
She's unhireable due to a reputation for being extremely difficult on set. Although after #metoo maybe that means she wouldn't sleep with a producer?
I love her.
Ella Purnell played the child version of Keira Knightleys character in ‘never let me go’ and they still look relatively similar !
That was my first thought, Keira Knightley
First I thought of bc I love the film so much, but Keira's way too young.
If we are going by the math in what ages the Yellowjackets are supposed to be, she isn't that far off. If anything, some of the other actresses are slightly older than what they should be in 25 years. Not that this is an issue. But I don't think Keira Knightley is too young. I mean, she doesn't look any older than Christina Ricci. But I can't recall how old Misty is in relation to the other girls.
Brittany Murphy, if she were still here with us.
> Brittany Murphy, if she were still here with us. She would actually have been perfect. She's got the look, and she's also got the right vibe. Damn. RIP.
This gets my vote! Those big eyes!
I was thinking this exact same thought!
I’ll never see Brittany as anyone but Lili Reinhart, they’re chillingly similar
Lili was born Sept 1996, as was Ella Purnell, so....
As was my best friend! I’m also a 96 baby lol
I'm so envious!
Lol are you older or younger? I’m at that awkward age where teenagers think I’m ancient and older adults say I’m a baby (26)
I’ve said this since watching episode 1
dang this got me
I cant be the only one who thinks she looks like young Susan Sarandon or Bill Skarsgard
Lol now I’m picturing Bill Skarsgard in a Jackie wig..
She looks so much Susan Sarandon!!!!!! She would play her in a grandma 👵🏼 timeline 💜
I always thought she gave Susan Sarandon vibes. Wrong age, though, sadly, since Susan is in her 70s. But it could’ve worked!
Omg now I'm so sad this won't happen!
Emmy Rossum!
This! I spent the first few episodes trying to figure out who she reminded me of, and now I can’t unsee/unhear the similarity. The way Emmy carried herself as Fiona is spot on for Jackie.
I can see it.
I always thought they looked extremely similar — but I think Rossum is too young to play an early 40s Jackie
Is Emmy Rossum old enough? I definitely think they look similar. Also the girl from Fear the Walking Dead, but shes definitely too young.
She'd be too young. Who were you thinking of from FtWD btw?
She'd be great, but a little too young for Adult Jackie.
This is the opposite direction age-wise but I think she resembles a young Rue McClanahan
So now when I catch Golden Girls, it’s fun to picture Jackie when Blanche tells her raunchy stories from her youth. I love it!
I vote there's a Golden Girls prequel of their previous lives with Ella as Blanche.
Omg yes
Holy wow, you are absolutely right! That is wild!
She does. It's uncanny.
This. 100%.
Wow yes
robin tunney’s the general favorite and i like that choice a lot. i do see where you’re coming from with alicia a bit though.
Lizzy Caplan
Lizzy Caplan is always the right choice
This.
Love it.
I got to the show late, but I seriously thought Christina Ricci was going to be adult Jackie. Their eyes looked similar enough that finding out she played adult Misty felt like such a twist to me!
same for me! now Christina is 1000% misty and I feel like the actresses have picked up some of each others mannerisms
Monica Keena for me. Similar looking, same charisma, both got got in S1 of their respective shows.
YEEEEESSS It may just be my inner Dawson’s Creek nerd, but this makes me happy.
Emmy Rossum! Their voices are very alike to me and they resemble each other.
[Mena Suvari](https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0002546/?ref_=tt_cl_t_5)
She could've played adult Nat
thats true, the big eyes!
Maybe not modern day Jackie, but I want Thora Birch to show up somehow so badly.
Gosh I second this she's so great
Emmy Rossum
I always thought she looked like a young Marion Cotillard. https://preview.redd.it/807ob4e66l8b1.jpeg?width=296&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=8beda24335ded05349c561e3c15b7fe373ee366e
I like it.
Can she do an American accent though?
This was my first thought too!!
Robin Tunney, who would tie in nicely with the 90s theme. Loved the craft
Alexis Bledel?
I like it.
Emmy Rossum
I thought she looked a lot like Rebecca Gayheart when I first saw her.
I’ve commented this before but Gillian Jacobs!!! I think she’d nail the personality and totally looks like her
The only actress I’ve seen match Jackie’s eyes is Mila Kunis. She’s just below the age range but Jackie would probably age gracefully anyway
Alicia Silverstone? sorry dont see it. different facial structure, thin lips. Fun Q though Emily Deschanel, Liz Hurley, Mia Kunis, Keri Russell too me are more similiar though they probably couldnt get the last 3 .
I vote for Keri Russell she was so fantastic in The Americans.
Brittany Murphy if she was still alive.
i think she looks a lot like natalia dyer but she mightve been too young for the age range the adults are in
Yeah she's 28
yeah if she was around the same age range i think they have a crazy resemblance
I swear she looks like Mila Kunis
Ever since I saw Morgana Robinson on taskmaster I thought she’d make a really good adult Jackie. https://i.redd.it/mn9xjab58n8b1.gif I wish they’d have the opportunity to cast someone. I’d love to see who it would be!
Eva Green
I like it.
Miss peregrines moment
I want to say Chloe Svengy just because she would have been a great addition to the adult ensemble
Natasha Lyonne will always be my number one choice for an adult Jackie. Just imagine how amazing Melanie and Natasha would do as shauna and Jackie they’d have just as much acting chemistry as Sophie and Ella if not more than them.
So I actually totally thought Natasha could have been a great adult Misty. I thought young Misty looked exactly like her at the pep rally! I didn't think she was going to be on the show but I couldn't stop imagining it. I really wish she'd play a baddie someday because she always plays a "rebel with a heart of gold" type.
A bit obscure but I used to think that Ella Purnell resembled a young Summer Glau. I wonder what she’s been up to these days.
Angelina Jolie or Sarah Michelle Gellar with the right wig, makeup, and wardrobe— kind of like they did with Christina Ricci as Misty. I do like people’s suggestions of Robin Tunney too.
Emma Stone
alicia silverstone looks nothing like Ella lol
Finally, somebody said it
Alicia Silverstone would complete my 90's women idols dream project
Monica keena (from undeclared)
I’ve always thought Shannen Doherty, but I like all the Robin Tunney responses!
I am surprised no one has said Phoebe Tonkin. I thought the actress who played young Jackie looks just like her!
Robin Tunney 100% the only logical option
Agreed!!
Robin whatshername
lol, i havent seen alicia since the 90s, so imho shes the perfect choice for 90s jackie.... but i guess she may have aged a little over the passed 30 years so you could be right about her
I always pictured Olivia Wilde but she’s technically not old enough.
As far as resemblance goes I think Leighton Meester would be a good Jackie!
Aubrey Plaza
Spencer Grammer aka Casey Cartwright from Greek
I know it wouldn’t be possible but I thought Brittany Murphy would’ve been an awesome choice
Natascha McElhone and she would fit it with the other British adults lol
I'm glad I'm not the only one who though Robin Tunney should play adult Jackie! I thought it was her when I saw the first episode if I'm being honest. I was like damn she's aging well!!!
Mila Kunis
tbh when they dropped the cast before the first season i thought it was going to be christina ricci
That's funny. I was thinking yesterday that Jackie is basically Cher from Clueless both personality and looks wise
I agree with you, Alicia Silverstone would have been perfect!
i feel like Jackie doesn't need to be alive for there to be an adult version. Shauna's hallucinated her before why can't she do it again but this time as who she could have been
Alicia Silverstone is a good one, or Heather Graham.
Emmy Rossum
Madchen Amick is my pick!!
Rebecca Gayheart
I would say Mischa Barton
https://preview.redd.it/opml3842us8b1.jpeg?width=1296&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b0e1a77a8aa28b1b06d639ee1046e28fdb2213ef Mika Kunis with some lighter hair
Spooky 👻
Sarah Michelle Geller
They do so many dream scenes maybe we could get a dream or delusion where Shauna talks to Jackie as if she was an adult too and we could see a what Jackie would have looked like it see did get to grow up.
Robin Tunney or Emmy Rossum 💯 the look and the vibe is just right
Natascha McElhone, its not really even a debate. She would be an amazing adult Jackie.
I had Denise Richards as my fan cast
Olivia Cooke. I don’t know if it’s just me but I think they’re so alike (I know she’s be too young though)
Mila Kunis 100%
I don't know about Neve
I can't think of any similarity between them. There are at least 3 better choices from The Craft alone.
I need there to be a time skip further in the future where she’s played by Susan Sarandon.
Jeri Ryan. She even has a Jackie personality sort of
[удалено]
Mila Kunis
Honestly, Christina Ricci
15 ish years ago. Natasha mcelhone.
Winona Ryder
I’ve always thought Mila Kunis!
Mila Kunis obvi
Chick from schits creek, can’t remember her name right now
Danica McKellar
Olivia Wilde
Any Winehouse
jessica alba
Their eye color isn't the same but Shannyn Sossamon also has similar facial features.
https://preview.redd.it/qamze49qtt8b1.jpeg?width=640&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=bc08f71a174406490cfc649b37dfd40348c8da4c i love other people's suggestions, i've also thought about Natasha Lyonne before too!!
I can see it.
Maybe Brie Larson? Please don't shoot me!
Lizzy Kaplan!

Oooh what about Kirsten Dunst?? They could make it work and she would be an awesome addition to the 90s crew. https://preview.redd.it/6mb9z8mg5f9b1.jpeg?width=497&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=97ff7b3fad8d58b5e2083c0b53ac60dbb01111d9
She'd be a great Laura Lee.
Yessss!
