\n\t\t<\/h3>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n\t\t\tKayce Dutton is getting his own Yellowstone spinoff, but all anyone can talk about is about how his wife, Monica, is missing from Marshals. Yellowstone, which premiered in 2018, introduced viewers to the fictional Dutton family, who own the largest ranch in Montana. When the show debuted, Kayce (Luke Grimes) and Monica\u2019s (Kelsey Asbille) marriage [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
In addition to Grimes, the show stars Arielle Kebbel, Ash Santos, Tatanka Means, Brett Cullen<\/strong> and Logan Marshall Green<\/strong>. The sneak peeks have shown Kayce discussing new beginnings, skeletons in his closet and past trauma \u2014 while Monica is nowhere to be found.<\/a><\/p>\n\u201cWe definitely wanted to make sure to give it a real story and make it interesting and make it believable,\u201d Grimes told People in June 2025 about Marshals. \u201cIf it was just like, \u2018Well, he\u2019s happy\u2019 \u2014 we\u2019re just going to watch him be happy? That\u2019s not very cool. But I\u2019ll say this, the idea that was pitched to me is very, very good and very interesting and it really roped me in and I think it will rope the audience in as well.\u201d<\/p>\n
He continued: \u201cThere\u2019s going to be some familiar faces. There\u2019s going to be a lot of new faces too, so we\u2019ll see how that all feels. To go back into it in a new set of circumstances is going to be kind of transition.\u201d<\/p>\n
