Will Yellowstone Season 6 arrive? Since Taylor Sheridan confirmed that season 5 is the final season, fans have been speculating about the future of the Dutton family.
Cole Hauser, who plays Rip Wheeler, has poured some cold water on the possibility of additional episodes by suggesting that Season 5B might be the end. However, whispers about a surprise season 6 featuring Kelly Reilly persist. Is Yellowstone ending, or is there something more in store?
The final episodes are approaching, but Kevin Costner, who plays John Dutton, won't be around. Still, the rest of the cast suggests that fans can expect a meaningful ending.
Here's what we know about the future of Yellowstone and whether there might still be a season 6 on the horizon, though there has been no official confirmation.
Yellowstone Season 6 rumors and speculations
Many fans are calling for Yellowstone Season 6, but the signs don’t look promising. Us Weekly caught up with Cole Hauser, and his comments hint that season 5 might wrap up the story once and for all. He stated:
“You’ll have to stay tuned for November for how Taylor wraps it up!”
Although this comment hints at the show’s end, there has been no official word from Paramount.
Jen Landon who plays Teeter, shared an emotional post about her:
"Last day on the last season of Yellowstone."
As noted by Town & Country in September 2024, her post seemed to close the door on the show but did not entirely rule out the possibility of a future season.
A few weeks ago, Deadline reported that Kelly Reilly and Cole Hauser were in talks for a possible season 6. Is there going to be a twist at the end? Fans are keeping their fingers crossed because nothing's been officially wrapped up.
There's been a lot of chatter about the series getting canceled, which started when Kevin Costner left due to his busy schedule with his Horizon: An American Saga films.
His departure disrupted the filming schedule, leading some to wonder if the show could continue without him.
Cast and crew’s thoughts on the Yellowstone finale
Even though there is little certainty about a sixth season, the cast feels confident that the second half of season 5 will wrap things up neatly.
Luke Grimes, who plays Kayce Dutton, told Entertainment Weekly that the ending of these final episodes is "profound and beautiful," and he thinks it's the perfect way to finish the series.
Grimes' sentiments were echoed by actress Kelly Reilly, who plays the fan-favorite Beth Dutton. She stated that initially, Sheridan planned for the show to end after five seasons, but due to its popularity, they began discussing the possibility of continuing the story.
David Glasser, the show’s executive producer, mentioned that Sheridan had always envisioned how Yellowstone would end since the first episode. The finale, he says, sticks to Sheridan's original vision.
"Day one, episode one, Taylor said, ‘I know exactly how this ends,’” Glasser remarked.
What's next for Yellowstone: Spin-offs or new projects?
Although it seems unlikely there will be a Yellowstone Season 6, the Dutton saga is far from over. This is evident in Taylor Sheridan's "Sheridanverse," a collection of spinoffs including 1923 and 1883. There’s also 6666, set on the mythical 6666 Ranch. Additionally, new projects like The Madison, starring Michelle Pfeiffer and Matthew Fox, are in the pipeline.
So, there’s ample reason to stay excited about the franchise even after Yellowstone wraps up. If you can’t quite get over the Duttons yet, there’s nothing wrong with exploring these spin-offs.
There’s also buzz about Sheridan's new show dropping in 2024, starring Matthew McConaughey, which promises a fresh take on Western dramas.
While we wait for the conclusion of the series, it’s clear that Taylor Sheridan's universe continues to expand even if the series itself begins to wind down.
The final episodes of Yellowstone Season 5 will hit the Paramount Network starting on November 10, 2024. They will also be streaming on Paramount+, and if you want to catch up, previous seasons are available on Peacock.
