đŹ Yellowstone may have ridden into the sunset with its fiery Season 5 finale, but donât hang up your cowboy hat just yetâbecause the legacy is far from over. In fact, itâs just getting started.
According to Deadline, the Dutton family saga is set to thunder forward in a brand-new spin-off led by two of the series’ most beloved (and feared) characters: Beth Dutton (Kelly Reilly) and Rip Wheeler (Cole Hauser). The title? Still under wraps. The drama? Absolutely guaranteed.
đš And hereâs the kickerâthis is the first Taylor Sheridan spin-off likely to include âYellowstoneâ in its name, making it a direct bloodline continuation of the flagship show.
đ Beth Dutton Takes the Throne
With patriarch John Dutton IIIâs rule now history, his fiercely loyal daughter Beth appears poised to carry the family nameâand legacyâinto uncharted territory. Alongside her is Rip, the only man who can both survive and soften her fire. The coupleâs powerful (and often chaotic) love story will be the emotional backbone of this new chapter.
While Kevin Costner wonât be returning, Deadline hints that âother familiar facesâ could ride again. One already confirmed? Finn Little, who plays young Carter, will reprise his roleâsomething hinted at back in 2024 when Reilly affectionately responded to his goodbye Instagram comment with, âYou and I just beginning. xx.â
Looks like she meant it. đ„

đč Plot: Still tightly under wraps, but insiders tease the new show will explore âwhat happens next for the characters who are still aliveâ and promises to share the âmost DNAâ with the original series. Translation: this wonât feel like a side questâitâs a true continuation.
đč Title & Release Date: TBD, though the project is officially in development at Paramount+.
đč Not Alone: The spin-off isnât the only thing brewing in Sheridanâs ever-expanding western empire. Modern-set series The Madison (formerly 2024) is in the works, along with others like 1944, 6666, and Y: Marshals. đš The Yellowstone Cinematic Universe is going full gallop.
đ The Legacy Rides On
âWhatever the future holds, this is the end of the show weâve been making for the past seven years,â Reilly wrote after the series finale. But in true Dutton fashion, ends are just new beginnings with blood on their boots.
Stay tuned, partners. Beth and Ripâs next ride promises to be wild, unfiltered, and unforgettable. đ€ đđ„
