Yellowstone stars Kelly Reilly and Kevin Costner became close friends after working on the set of the neo-western drama.

From upping the ante on Jamie and Beth’s feud to amplifying Rip’s role on the ranch to forcing Kayce to reckon with his internal battle of picking his family or the ranch, writing John off makes a lot of sense when it comes to intensifying his kids' stories.

Yellowstone star Kelly Reilly , who plays Beth Dutton in the series, has confirmed reports that a sixth season of the series is being discussed. The news of the show continuing first came from Cole Hauser ,

Costner has confirmed that he’s not returning to the show — but footage of him appears in the trailer for the final episodes. There’s also voiceover of him saying, “Legacy. You build something worth having, someone is gonna try and take it.”

While the star has confirmed he's not returning for the upcoming season, he recently revealed, "I think that story is not finished.”
