Recurring stars Kelly Reilly and Cole Hauser will again play Beth and Rip, and Finn Little will again play Carter, their adopted son. One of the biggest additions to the ensemble will be a new character, who may be the replacement for the space left by John Dutton's passing in Yellowstone Season 5.

The series is looking specifically for a "Kevin Costner-type" actor for this part, although Costner himself won't be turning up due to his own character's exit. As for a release date, Paramount+ hasn't confirmed it yet, but we might have this Beth & Rip spin-off around this year's Christmas.

The 6666 spinoff shifts the focus to the Four Sixes Ranch in Guthrie, Texas, with its cowboy heritage. The show will delve into the tough lives of cowboys rearing world-class cattle, merging human law and nature's adversity.

The storyline is likely to center on Jimmy Hurdstorm, who resumes his cowboy adventure at the Four Sixes with Emily, a vet tech. Teeter, a Yellowstone cast member is also likely to be part of the show, along with other familiar characters.

Production has been postponed because of the 2023 writers' and actors' strikes and the necessity to respect the ranch's heritage. The show, originally scheduled for 2023, is now likely to debut in 2025 or beyond.

The series will premiere on Paramount Network before streaming on platforms such as Paramount+. Fans are looking forward to more news as production resumes.
