Yellowjackets Season 2 Interview: Steven Krueger on Ben's "Descent Into Madness"
102[Editor's note: This video and the following description contain spoilers for Yellowjackets, Season 2, Episode 6, “Qui."]
Poor Ben Scott (Steven Krueger). Not only did he suffer the most horrific plane crash injury (death not included) and get poisoned by Misty (Samantha Hanratty) in Season 1, but now he finds himself ostracized from the group, starving, and losing his sanity in Season 2.
Yellowjackets Season 2, Episode 2, “Edible Complex” marks a major turning point for Ben when he decides to not eat Jackie (Ella Purnell) with the rest of the group. Not only does the choice kick off his extreme alienation and leave him far weaker than the rest of the survivors, but it also sends him spiraling mentally. Flashbacks to happier times with his boyfriend Paul played by François Arnaud morph into a fantasy, giving him a taste of what could have been had he never boarded the plane to the soccer tournament at all.
During the spoiler half of my interview with Krueger and co-stars Warren Kole and Kevin Alves, the subject of Ben’s flashbacks/fantasies came up, so I opted to ask Krueger for some of his personal top priorities when playing those moments. Find out what he said about that and hear Alves' thoughts on the guilt Travis is carrying around and where Kole thinks Jeff draws the line with how far he's willing to let Shauna go in this video.
