10 Actors Who HATED Making TV Shows

6. Juliette Lewis - Yellowjackets

It wasn't exactly a shock when the second season of thriller series Yellowjackets concluded with the death of Juliette Lewis' character Natalie, given that Lewis seemed to suggest in interviews that she wasn't having a great time working on the show at all.

In a November 2021 Q&A, conducted the same month the show premiered, Lewis was visibly agitated and said that playing troubled addict Natalie was "depressing" and "not what [she] expected." When the Q&A ended, she hastily exited the stage before the rest of the cast.

This led many fans to assume that Nat's days on the show were basically already numbered per Lewis' apparent disinterest in continuing, and so, little surprise it was when season two's finale saw Nat get fatally stuck with a needle containing phenobarbital by Misty (Christina Ricci).

Lewis hasn't spoken much about Yellowjackets since her departure, though seems keen to move on with other projects.
