‘Yellowstone’ Reveals First Look Photos of Season 5 Return Without Kevin Costner

‘Yellowstone’ Reveals First Look Photos of Season 5 Return Without Kevin Costner

As a seasoned gamer of the wild west drama genre, I must admit that the return of Yellowstone is like a long-awaited reunion with old friends. However, the absence of John Dutton, played by Kevin Costner, leaves a noticeable gap in the heart of Montana. It’s a bit like playing a game without your trusted character, and you can’t help but miss their leadership and presence.


Yellowstone revealed the first photos from its long-awaited back half of season five.

The pictures feature Kelly Reilly as Beth Dutton, Cole Hauser as Rip Wheeler, Luke Grimes as Kayce Dutton, Jamie Dutton portrayed by Wes Bentley, and Gil Birmingham as Thomas Rainwater.

Without a doubt, Kevin Costner, who portrayed John Dutton, the main character, is not present in the show following its break after season 5. Costner decided to focus on his “Horizon” movie series after the hiatus, but he remains contractually as an executive producer for the show.

Kevin Costner stated in an interview with Hollywood Reporter when he announced his departure, “I devoted five seasons to this project, and I genuinely enjoyed it. I don’t crave drama, so I wanted to eliminate any uncertainty. The fans have been incredibly supportive, and it’s my duty to provide them with more meaningful work moving forward.” Additionally, he expressed, “It was a sensible choice to conclude, ‘Alright, I no longer wish to discuss this any further. It’s time for us to move on.'”

The images have emerged alongside rumors suggesting negotiations between Reilly and Hauser for possibly expanding the Paramount Network’s hit series past its fifth season.

Additionally, a new series titled “The Madison” is set to follow the “Yellowstone” saga. This upcoming show boasts stars like Michelle Pfeiffer and Matthew Fox. The plot revolves around a family from New York City living in the Madison River valley of central Montana, exploring themes of grief and human connection in a heartfelt manner.

Yellowstone returns on Sunday, Nov. 10.

The series follows the Dutton family, who own the largest continuous cattle ranch in the U.S. They face shifting alliances, unsolved murders, lingering wounds, and the hard-won respect as they continually clash with those surrounding them – an expanding town, a Native American reservation, and America’s first national park.
