Yellowstone is about a ranching family that faces the challenges that any ranching family
would face in a corrupt world.
With politicians, fracking, and general distrust to worry about with neighboring ranchers,
reservations, and national parks, Yellowstone is Dallas for the 21st century.
Yellowstone came out of nowhere, and it took America by storm when it aired in 2018.
Ever since then, it has gained a huge following, and we are gearing up for season 5 of the
hit show.
Cast The classic cast will still be returning,
alongside some fresh faces that will pose new threats as well as some potentially friendly
ones.
Kevin Costner will be returning as John Dutton, Kelly Reily will return as Beth, Luke Grimes
as Kayce, as well as some other familiar faces.
We’re also going to get to be able to see Josh Lucas as young John Dutton, which will
be the first time since season 3.
With his return, we can only assume that there will be quite a few flashbacks in this season
because Kylie Rogers will be returning as young Beth, and Kyle Red Silverstein will
be returning as young Rip.
Jacki Weaver will be returning as Caroline Warner, and she’ll be bringing along Mo
Brings Plenty and Wendy Moniz, who are now being moved up to regular cast in this season
as Mo and Governor Lynelle Perry.
On top of the returning cast, there are four new faces that will be gracing our tv’s
this coming season.
Lainey Wilson will be playing a musician named Abby.
Kai Caster will be playing a young cowboy named Rowdy.
Lilli Cai will be playing a new assistant for the Dutton’s named Clara Brewer.
Also, 1883’s Dawn Olivieri will be a new corporate shark named Sarah Atwood.
It’s looking to be a crazy season considering the cast alone.
Release Date Season five will be premiering on Paramount
Plus on Sunday, November 13.
This is the longest season yet.
The plan is to split up the season in two sections of seven episodes at a time.
After the first seven episodes air, there will be a break before the second half of
the season is aired.
As of right now, there is no clear description for how long the mid-season break will be.
Catch Up For those of you that don’t want spoilers,
this is the time to skip ahead.
By the end of season 4, things are pretty much revolving around Beth.
She asks Walker how to sneak a weapon into the prison, and she thinks that this is the
solution to putting her affairs in order.
At the time, people are wondering if her prison visit is to see Summer, but it doesn’t take
long to find out that she’s going to visit Terrell Riggins.
Riggins is the one responsible for attempting to kill Beth, John, and Kayce back in the
finale of season 3.
She plans to kill him, but she ends up thinking that Jamie is the one behind the attacks on
them after finding out he visited him.
On the way back to the ranch, she kidnaps a priest to marry her and Rip, and she confronts
Jamie over the assassination attempt on the Duttons.
This is where her famous three options comes in.
Jamie swears that he wasn’t involved, and she finds out that it was actually his biological
father, Garrett.
Jamie chooses the option to kill Garrett in order to save himself, but things get worse
after Beth catches him trying to dispose of Garrett’s lifeless body at the Train Station.
On top of that, Kayce has his vision quest, and he gets a vision of the end of something.
We’re not quite sure what it is yet, but it could be the end of the Duttons, Monica,
or even himself.
Caroline swears that she’ll take the land from the Dutton’s and everything else that
is precious to Beth, and Summer ends up getting a super long sentencing for something rather
minor.
If anything, season 4 seems to be the perfect set up for season 5.
The season finales that came before this one were all more explosive in every sense of
the word, but season 4 just seems to have gotten us ready for an explosive season.
What is the Train Station and why is it important?
The Train Station is where Jamie tries to dispose of Garrett’s body when he gets caught
by Beth.
It’s not a literal train station though.
It’s actually just land just over the state line in Wyoming where bodies are buried.
Technically, Train Station is a county with no people, no sheriff, and no jurors.
Needless to say, the Train Station is not a friendly stop around Yellowstone.
Rumors Now it’s time for the juicy parts.
Rumors have been flying around about season 5, and with plenty of time until the season
premiere, there are bound to be more that get proven to be true.
As of now, there are plenty to talk about.
For one, Malcolm Beck could be getting a return to the small screen.
Neal McDonough has talked about the possibility of his character returning due to the fact
that we never actually saw his final demise back in season 2.
Back in season 2, Malcolm was the shady businessman that planned to shut down Thomas Rainwater’s
casino, but he really got his label as a villain after John Dutton refused to go along with
his plan.
After that, he hired a militia to kidnap Kayce’s son and assault Beth as a way to get back
at John.
John later wounds Malcolm in a standoff that one would assume would leave him dead, but
we never actually see his eyes close.
Neal even spoke out about his return to the show.
He stated, “Did I die?
Did I?
I’m not so sure about that.
We have talked about the fact we didn’t actually see Malcolm Beck’s eyes close.
There is always that possibility."
Grimes and Asbille seem to have hinted at the possibility of them having a baby.
Asbille hinted that she’s ready to have a sweet little baby on set, but Grimes doesn’t
seem so positive about the situation.
Grimes stated, "We might die tomorrow.
It's kind of the Yellowstone [trademark]."
Asbille also spoke to the happiness of the couple on set, and she’s hopeful that they
end up happy.
She’s not too positive about the possibility of them ending up happy in the end though.
Yet, both actors have admitted that they are never quite sure what’s really going to
happen to their characters seeing how they never really see the scripts until it’s
time to shoot.
Another rumor that has been floating around is the idea that Jimmy won’t return.
Well, it turns out that that is definitely not true.
During season 4, Jimmy moved to the 6666 Ranch in Texas, but that’s not the end of him
in the series.
White shut down the rumors himself by stating, “I’m in season 5.
Jimmy’s in season 5.
That’s great.
I’m really looking forward to that.
I didn’t know necessarily what Jimmy's future was.
I still don't know exactly what Jimmy’s future holds.
I've really given up on trying to guess.
What Taylor Sheridan, the show's creator — I think one of the best writers in television
now or ever, definitely — comes up with is always so much better than what I could
come up with.
So I'm really excited that Jimmy's journey continues, and I have no idea where it leads
and I'm just kind of ready to try to hold on.”
Where to get more Yellowstone story Just in case season 5 isn’t enough to quench
your thirst for Yellowstone, another spinoff story has been announced.
1932 is another spinoff show that’s coming in December, and it stars big hitters such
as Helen Mirren and Harrison Ford.
The official description of the series is that it is an “origin story will introduce
a new generation of the Dutton family and explore the early twentieth century when pandemics,
historic drought, the end of Prohibition, and the Great Depression all plague the mountain
west, and the Duttons who call it home.”
On top of that, the spinoff series, 1883, premiered back in February with ten episodes.
This mini-series follows the original Dutton family as they journey west, and it stars
Tim McGraw, Faith Hill, Sam Elliott, and Isabel May.
Paramount has announced that there are more episodes in the works, but there has been
no official release date for the new episodes of the series.
