Josh Brolin’s daughter, Eden Brolin, plays the role of Mia in Yellowstone. She made her first appearance in the third season of the show and was last seen in season 4. Daughter of Alice Adair and Josh Brolin, Eden’s first notable role was in the indie feature film I Dream Too Much by Richard Linklater.
Besides Yellowstone, Eric also starred in the show Beyond as Charlie Singer. She also starred in the 2019 stage production of Shakespeare’s Hamlet and played the role of Ophelia.
Let us now explore her character, Mia, in Yellowstone detail.
Mia first appeared in Yellowstone Season 3 Episode 3
While Jimmy in Yellowstone is a character who is almost liked universally, his ex-girlfriend Mia gets the same amount of hate. She made her first appearance in season 3, episode 3 of the show, where she first meets Jimmy at a rodeo competition.
Unfortunately, their first date goes rather poorly as Jimmy gets seriously injured and ends up at a hospital. They have their first date at a hospital, which should have served as a premonition about the toxic relationship that awaits them.
Mia turns out to be a toxic partner to Jimmy and pushes him back in the saddle despite his doctor advising him against it. She even tells him,
"Be that man, and you can have me. But be this one, and I'll see you later."
Unfortunately, Jimmy’s attempts to get back into rodeo lead him back to the hospital. Mia then refuses to join Jimmy in Texas, and he moves on with his life, eventually getting engaged to Emily, a vet tech on the 6666.
They are shown as a happy couple, and when they visit Montana in the season 4 finale, Mia starts a brawl with Emily. However, the latter holds her ground, and that episode marks Mia’s final appearance in Yellowstone.
Mia does not make a return to Yellowstone
Since she moved out of the ranch in Yellowstone season 4, Mia’s character did not make a return. The possibility of her return was also not explored. Along with Mia, not much of Jimmy was also shown since the finale of season 4.
As Mia watched Jimmy drive away, she cried and tugged her hair, and that marked the end of her character in the show and their relationship. It is only in the season 5 midseason finale that a brief insight is given into Jimmy’s character, who is living his life on the 6666 ranch without showing much interest in returning to the violent atmosphere of Montana.
While there is a possibility of Jimmy’s character returning in the Yellowstone spinoff series 6666, not the same can be said about Mia. Since Jimmy is with Emily now, 6666 is more likely to focus on his present partner than on his manipulative ex.
