Yellowstone, the fan-favorite contemporary Western drama, has come to a halt today after entertaining the fans with cowboys for six years. Though the second part of season 5 was awfully executed, Sheridan somehow wrapped up the show on a good note in the most-awaited finale. In the end, a female narrator beautifully summarized the series so far. New fans might not know who it is but the long-time fans who have been watching all the installments in the Yellowstone franchise know her. It is none other than Elsa Dutton, so if you are still wondering who she is, keep reading to learn more about her.
Elsa Dutton Is the Great Aunt of John Dutton
When Mo is restoring the gravestones that the kids pushed over, we see Elsa Dutton’s for a second. In the very next scene, Elsa Dutton lends her voice as the narrator and comes up with a final monologue that summarizes the key theme of Yellowstone. If you have just been sticking with the main series Yellowstone, then you might not be familiar with her.
Because Elsa Dutton is one of the lead characters of the Yellowstone spinoff, 1883: A Yellowstone Origin Story. What’s more special is the fact that she served as the narrator in both Yellowstone spinoffs, 1883 and 1923. Therefore, she came back once again to do a closing speech for the finale of the Yellowstone series.
If you are curious about how she is related to the modern generation Dutton family, we have an answer to that as well. Elsa Dutton is the firstborn daughter of James and Margaret Dutton, the first generation of the Dutton family we know. Now that makes Elsa the great-aunt of John Dutton (played by Kevin Costner). Without spoiling anything about the spinoff, I can say she is one of the vital characters who contributed to the existence of the Yellowstone Dutton Ranch.
Now that Yellowstone seems to have ended, I think it’s high time for the fans to check out 1823 and 1923 as the latter’s second season is premiering next year. These are quality spinoff shows that can help you fill the void that Yellowstone left now. That said, what do you think about the final monologue by Elsa? Let us know in the comments below.
