The behind the scenes drama of Yellowstone<\/em><\/a> prolonged the release of the final part of season 5<\/a>, and fans are wondering if they can expect a season 6.\n<\/p>\n In August 2024, Deadline<\/em><\/a> confirmed that a sixth season was under negotiations. More notably, the series will continue to focus on the Dutton family. However, Beth Dutton (Kelly Reilly<\/strong>) and Rip Wheeler (Cole Hauser<\/strong>) will reportedly be the new face of the series following Kevin Costner<\/strong>\u2019s exit from the show.<\/p>\n Season 6 has yet to be officially confirmed as of publication.<\/p>\n \u201cThey\u2019re caught between a rock and a hard place because they want to stay in Taylor Sheridan<\/strong>\u2019s good graces,\u201d an insider exclusively told Life & Style<\/em><\/a> of the cast following Kevin\u2019s exit in September 2024. \u201cBut some of them do really miss Kevin and feel like it was a huge mistake not figuring out a compromise.\u201d<\/p>\n After ongoing whispers of drama between Kevin and Yellowstone<\/em> production, Kevin confirmed he wasn\u2019t returning<\/a> to the series to film the final episodes of season 5.<\/p>\n \u201cHi everyone. I just want to reach out and let you know that after this long year and a half of working on Horizon<\/em> and doing all the things that that\u2019s required, and thinking about Yellowstone<\/em> \u2014 that beloved series that I love, that I know you love \u2013 I just realize that I\u2019m not going to be able to continue season 5b or into the future,\u201d the Bodyguard<\/em> actor announced via Instagram on June 20, 2024. \u201cIt was something that really changed me. I loved it, and I know you loved it. I just wanted to let you know that I won\u2019t be returning. I love the relationship we\u2019ve been able to develop, and I\u2019ll see you at the movies.\u201d<\/p>\n Three months later, a second insider revealed that Kevin\u2019s exit left a trail of a mess behind.<\/p>\n \u201cThere\u2019s a big divide already because some people on the cast are moaning about what a big mistake it was to let him go and what a disaster it is and others seem to have this attitude of good riddance because they\u2019re desperate to have more of the limelight,\u201d the source dished at the time. \u201cIt\u2019s created chaos already and will only get worse assuming season 6 does go ahead as seems to be planned.\u201d<\/p>\n The drama will continue on November 10, 2024, on Paramount Network and Paramount Plus streaming service. One new episode will be released each week with the finale airing on December 15, 2024.<\/p>\n The official trailer dropped in October 2024, which teased jaw-dropping twists and turns. For example, Beth and Rip walk down two separate paths. While the no-limits cowboy is ready for war, Beth wants to live a calmer life away from the constant violence.<\/p>\n Luke Grimes<\/strong>, Wes Bentley<\/strong>, Gil Bermingham<\/strong> and Finn Little and a handful of other stars are returning for season 5b. Lainey Wilson<\/strong> is also making a grand return, which producers hope will bring fresh sets of eyes to the series.<\/p>\n \u201cProducers feared not having Kevin aboard for the second half of season 5 would be a turnoff for viewers. But they know Lainey is going to bring her millions of fans<\/a> with her,\u201d a third source exclusively told Life & Style<\/em> in August 2024. \u201cThey got a lot more than they bargained for when they signed an obscure singer, seeing how she\u2019s now a global star!\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\nWill There Be a \u2018Yellowstone\u2019 Season 6?<\/h2>\n
