Melanie Lynskey, a star of the new Showtime series Yellowjackets, recently recounted an incident in which a coworker allegedly criticized her body on set. According to Lynskey, a production team member asked her what she planned to do about her weight and suggested that the show’s producers would be willing to hire a personal trainer to help get her in shape. Lynskey, 41, said she was also body shamed by viewers who questioned whether the character Adam, a handsome young artist who has an affair with Lynskey’s character, Shauna, would have been attracted to someone who looks like her.
