- Yellowstone might not have a season 6 since the ranch is now gone in the series.
- However, the actors who play Beth and Rip are enthusiastic to return but if they do, it will probably be a spinoff rather than Yellowstone season 6.
- People speculated that there will be a season 6 after the trailer for the final episode ended with "Season Finale" instead of "Series Finale".
After a legendary run of 6 years, Yellowstone and John Dutton’s legacy has ended. Based in Montana, this series brought us the life of generational ranchers led by John Dutton, his family, and his trusty cowboys. Yellowstone not only became one of the most loved shows in America but also broke multiple records on its way. So, now that Season 5 has ended, one might wonder if there will be a Yellowstone Season 6. Well, find your answer right here!
Yellowstone Might Not Have a Season 6 but Multiple Spinoffs
In an Interview, Kelly Reilly who appears as Beth in Yellowstone stated “We are absolutely ending this show”. In 2023, Paramount Networks also commented that Season 5 will be the last of Yellowstone. This report came forward after it was confirmed that Kevin Costner will not return as John Dutton in Yellowstone Season 5 Part 2. So, the chances of Yellowstone Season 6 happening are pretty low.
However, not all hope is lost. Kelly Reilly and Cole Hauser, who plays Rip, had an interview with The Hollywood Reporter where the two actors said how Taylor Sheridan can potentially continue the story of Beth and Rip. In this conversation, Cole Hauser spoke about Sheridan’s brilliance and stated-
“Taylor can figure out how to absolutely continue if he wants to. But that’s just Taylor being a brilliant writer. I’m not telling you that it is continuing, it’s just that he’s smart enough as a writer to do that if that’s something that he is passionate about.” – Cole Hauser
Following this, Kelly Reilly also talked about Sheridan’s creative brilliance and how she trusts him with her character. She said that whatever he might write for the future of the character is going to be good and she has full faith in the future if Yellowstone were to avoid its end. She commented-
“It’s up to him, We trust him. He’s a master storyteller, and we help him tell these characters’ stories, and it’s been such a ride and so electrifying to play and so invigorating,I trust him. I trust him with wherever he takes her; whether we’re leaving her where we’ve left her, or we’re going to find her somewhere else, I trust him. I really could go either way right now.” – Kelly Reilly
With these comments, one can easily figure that the cast is not done with Yellowstone and will be up for season 6. However, with the Yellowstone ranch now gone, and everything being with the Indians, the chances of the story about being this particular ranch are very bleak.
Considering Rip and Beth moved away and are now building their ranch, we can expect a spinoff based on these characters. The same is with Kayce and his family so let’s wait and see what happens.
Why Do People Speculate a Yellowstone Season 6?
The official X Page of Yellowstone shared a teaser for the final episode before its release. However, people noticed that the clip they shared did not mention this episode as the “Series Finale” instead it addressed the finale with “Season Finale”. This minute detail raised speculation that there would be a further season of Yellowstone.
However, this could just be a failsafe so that if Taylor Sheridan decides to move further, he has something to tell people that he never concluded the story. So, with that being said, let’s wait for what happens, and do let us know how you feel about the finale in the comments!
