‘Yellowstone’ cocreator Taylor Sheridan is still figuring out where to go with the story line for Kevin Costner’s character, John Dutton
Yellowstone fans thought Kevin Costner wouldn’t be back for the show’s final episodes, but now there are rumors he might return — and it’s still not clear how the series will end.
If Costner, 69, doesn’t return to the series, the source says the final episodes will likely “focus more on the children and ranch hands and their relationships, conflicts and alliances.” The first half of season five ended on a cliffhanger, with Jamie calling for his dad’s impeachment. John, meanwhile, seemed ready to team up with Beth to have Jamie murdered. That leaves a lot of plot left for John, but Costner’s legal team said he “is not involved in any future episodes” of the show.
“Even if Costner significantly lowers his financial and time commitment demands, Sheridan may not want to bother reopening his finished scripts to accommodate a send-off for John Dutton,” Puck reported on March 24. “But the Yellowstone fans would certainly love it, which Costner knows and hopes to leverage, as he always does.”

Will Kevin Costner's John Dutton Return to Yellowstone Season 5, Part 2?If Kevin Costner's John Dutton does return to Yellowstone season 5, part 2, several things need to happen — or at least be addressed — before the series finale airs. Over the last year, Costner and Yellowstone co-creator Taylor Sheridan have been at odds. Reportedly, Costner, who plays the show’s patriarch, wasn’t keen on the direction Sheridan’s scripts were leaning in regard to John Dutton’s ultimate fate. Of course, Costner has also been hard at work writing, directing, producing, and starring in his two-part epic, Horizon: An American Saga, which is set to release in theaters during the summer of 2024. A perfect Yellowstone replacement, Costner’s new Western also has something Yellowstone season 5, part 2 reportedly won’t feature: Costner himself — in spades. Naturally, viewers are wondering how John’s story will end. ...the massive political platform also puts an even bigger target on John Dutton’s back
