Yellowstone Season 6 Shocker: The Show Will Go On With Kelly Reilly And Cole Hauser

Following Kevin Costner’s departure, the modern-day Western was set to conclude with the second half of season 5, which will air in November on Paramount Network

There may be another chapter coming in the Yellowstone saga.

Negotiations are reportedly underway for a sixth season of the modern-day Western nearly four months after it was confirmed that the Paramount Network series would conclude with the second half of season 5, which will air in November, according to Deadline and Puck, which was first to report the news.

The outlets report Cole Hauser (Rip Wheeler) and Kelly Reilly (Beth Dutton) are in talks to lead the new season of the Taylor Sheridan series following the departure of Kevin Costner, who confirmed in June that he will not be returning for the rest of season 5 following rumors of his exit.

Yellowstone premiered on the Paramount Network in 2018 and is now available to stream on Peacock.

The series tells the story of the Dutton family, who have owned and operated America’s largest ranch for six generations. Viewers see how turmoil and local enemies threaten the ranch’s success. Additionally, the personal lives of the Dutton brood are also explored.

News of the potential sixth season of the hit series comes one day after Paramount confirmed Matthew Fox will lead the upcoming Yellowstone spinoff, The Madison, alongside Michelle Pfeiffer.

The Madison is set to follow a New York City family living in the Madison River valley of central Montana, and is a “heartfelt study of grief and human connection,” per the release.

The Madison is the seventh spinoff from the Kevin Costner-led series.

The first spinoff, 1883, was a prequel series starring Faith Hill and Tim McGraw as the Dutton family’s 19th-century ancestors, James and Margaret Dutton, on their journey from Texas to Montana through the Great Plains.

Lawmen: Bass Reeves is a limited series – with no set premiere date as of yet – that merged with 1883 and will star David Oyelowo as the titular iconic lawman.

1923 is another prequel series from Taylor Sheridan, which saw Helen Mirren and Harrison Ford star as Cara Dutton and Jacob Dutton and chronicled the family’s trek to Montana. It originally premiered in 2022, and was later renewed for a second season, with both Mirren and Ford confirmed to return.

There are several other spinoffs that have been confirmed but few details are available, including 6666, pronounced “Four Sixes,” a Matthew McConaughey-led spinoff that was confirmed to be “moving forward” in April 2023 and 1944, another prequel series that would tell the story of the Dutton family in that year.

Past episodes of 1883 and 1923 can be streamed on Paramount+, while Yellowstone can be streamed on Peacock.
