Yellowstone fans will finally get to see how the story of John Dutton wraps up when the show returns for its final episodes in November.
Paramount announced on Friday that the back half of Yellowstone‘s season five will air in the fall, reportedly actor Kevin Costner’s last ride as patriarch John Dutton in the Yellowstone universe.
Season five will conclude the original Yellowstone show and lead into a sequel series created by longtime show architect Taylor Sheridan, Paramount confirmed.
The Yellowstone sequel series will premiere in December, which Oscar-winning actor Matthew McConaughey has been linked to as its star. It’s unknown if any characters from the original Yellowstone series will jump over to the sequel project, however it’ll reportedly continue the Dutton family story.
It was reported earlier this week that Coster would be exiting the program after reported off-set drama involving the actor and the show’s leadership bubbled up earlier this year. Coster’s attorney denied any friction on the actor’s behalf.
The last episode in season five’s first half aired on Jan. 1. No firm date in November has been set for the show’s remaining episodes, and production has not yet started. Further delays are always possible.
