Melanie Lynskey says she and her 'Yellowjackets' costars have to stay in touch via video chat because Juliette Lewis is bad at texting

• Melanie Lynskey said that she and her "Yellowjackets" costars stay in touch via video chats.
• "Video messages started because Juliette [Lewis] cannot send a text message that makes sense," Lynskey said.

Melanie Lynskey revealed that she and her "Yellowjackets" costars — who include Tawny Cypress, Christina Ricci, and Juliette Lewis — have stayed in touch via video chats since wrapping season one of the Showtime drama.

According to Lynskey, the video messaging came about because Lewis, who plays the adult version of Nat on the show, is bad at texting.

"Juliette cannot send a text message that makes sense," Lynskey said in a recent interview with Us Weekly. "She does voice text and it's so confusing."

"Finally she was like, 'There's this thing called Marco Polo and it helps me in my life.' So we get these great video messages from each other," the "Candy" star added.

Lynskey was seemingly referring to the popular video messaging app Marco Polo, which allows users to send video and text messages.

Elsewhere in the interview, Lynskey praised her costars on the critically-acclaimed drama, which was renewed for a second season shortly after it premiered last year.

"They are people I've just respected for a very long time and we like each other, which is nice. We care about each other," the actress said. "It's nice to be going back into an environment with people I'm excited to work with and excited to hang out with."

Aside from season two of "Yellowjackets," Lynskey is also starring in the new Hulu drama "Candy," opposite Jessica Biel. The show is based on the real-life murder of Betty Gore, and premieres May 9. You can watch the trailer below.
