“Yellowstone” season 5 part 2 kicks off on Sunday, November 10, at 8 p.m. ET/PT, with the premiere of the yet-to-be-titled “Episode 9,” airing live on Paramount Network.
The Kevin Costner-led drama is back without its biggest star to tell the end of five seasons (and two spinoffs) worth of storytelling about a family trying to protect the largest cattle ranch in the United States. Costner announced his departure from the series in June, and one of the biggest unknowns leading into Sunday’s premiere is how the showrunners will handle his exit.

The half-season will feature just six episodes, as generations of blood reach their boiling point. Here’s everything you need to know about “Yellowstone” Season 5, Part 2.
Will there be another season of ‘Yellowstone?’
For now, no – this is being promoted as the series finale. However, “Yellowstone” is extremely popular and has already inspired two prequel spinoffs, with two more on the way: one currently titled “1944″ and another, initially named “2024″ and later changed to “The Madison.”
Also, in August, reports circulated that Kelly Reilly and Cole Hauser were in talks to star in a sixth season, although no official confirmation has been announced.
