Don’t shoot the messenger, yellow stone fans, but I have brought bad news. The alleged enmity between yellow stone creator taylor sheridan and protagonist of the series Kevin Costner may have brought the end of his time on the popular western. According entertainment tonight, sources close to the yellow stone The production believes that Costner will not return after the end of the fifth season. Besides that, Deadline revealed that yellow stone is finished after season five, and a sequel series has already been greenlit, even if Costner returns.
Of course, there are still more questions here than answers. Before Costner can even leave the series after the season five finale, we’re going to need confirmation that a season five finale will ever air. yellow stoneThe fifth season has been on hiatus since the mid season finale in January, which also ended in a pretty significant cliffhanger. Fans were preparing for a grand finale upon the show’s return, of course. But with the news of yellow stone 2.0we can safely bet that the Dutton family will carry on without its main patriarch.
As of today, there is no return date, production schedule or script for yellow stone. The reported feud between Sheridan and Costner, reportedly over everything from on-set egos to filming schedules, has left the cast and crew confused and frustrated. Costner has yet to offer hope that he will return, according to Hollywood insiders and The city podcast host matthew belloni. The star reportedly won’t be filming for more than one to three weeks, but she has yet to give Paramount her official response. The rest of the episodes are reportedly being written with various levels of input from Costner. The actor won’t sign on to a possible return until he’s satisfied with how Sheridan decides to write him off from the franchise.
At the same time, the Writer’s Guild of America has been on strike since May 1 as its members fight for better pay, meaning updates on production likely won’t be coming any time soon. Paramount wants to wrap up season five for a November 2023 release, but there are plenty of street lights that need to turn green before they can hit the gas. Soon? Everyone is in the dark. Worse yet, the drama may lead to the team never coming back to finish. yellow stone.
Meanwhile, Paramount is moving forward with several spinoff series to keep the franchise alive. Taylor Sheridan currently has plans to to second season of 1923a spin-off focused on 6666 ranch, and a new sequel series starring Matthew McConaughey. It will be the first new Paramount Network project to retain yellow stone in the title, which is a big plus for a series that once sold its broadcast rights to Peacock. But with the strike and the Costner situation up in the air, you’ll be lucky if it makes it to the planned December 2023 release. Until we get more information, this may be the last we see of John Dutton.
