Awarded Best Actress in a Drama Series for Yellowjackets, Melanie Lynskey praised the work of the Quebec actress once on stage. The two actresses play the character of Shauna at two different times.

During her heartfelt acceptance speech at the Fairmont Century Plaza Hotel in Los Angeles, Lynskey said, “Sophie Nélisse, you did 70% of the work for me playing young Shauna. You are a miracle. I love you. »

In Yellowjackets, from the American network Showtime, Sophie Nélisse portrays one of the members of a New Jersey soccer team in survival mode after their plane crashed in the middle of nowhere. The story is told on two separate timelines. On the one hand, we follow their perilous journey through the forest in the heart of the 1990s; on the other, we explore how some of them try, 25 years after being rescued, to lead a normal life.

The series is available in French on Crave.
