Yellowstone Cast Reacts: Costner’s Exit Considered a “Huge Mistake” in New Report

A recent report indicates that there are tensions brewing among the cast of Yellowstone following Kevin Costner’s sudden departure from the Taylor Sheridan series.

While Yellowstone Season 5 Part 2 is on its way, it appears there is some division among the cast members. This final season was intended to conclude the Dutton family’s saga of wealth, murder, and legacy, with its finale airing on September 7.

In August 2024, speculation about Yellowstone Season 6 started to emerge, which was later verified by a Deadline report. According to reports, Kelly Reilly and Cole Hauser will continue to develop the storyline, with a new season focusing on Beth and Rip following Part 2.

Despite the conclusion of Season 5 and the fate of Season 6 yet to be confirmed by Paramount, a source cited by Life & Style Magazine claims that tensions are high among the cast. It’s reported that they “bicker over Kevin Costner’s exit and vow to be the top dog in the new pecking order.”

The publication reported insights from an insider who stated: “They’re caught between a rock and a hard place because they want to stay in Taylor Sheridan’s good graces, but some of them do really miss Kevin and feel like it was a huge mistake not figuring out a compromise.”

“Certain cast members are already throwing their weight around a lot more than before,” they continued. “When Kevin was part of the cast, he was the undisputed alpha and a strong leader, but with him gone, things have become very disordered.”

They further alleged that the cast is split regarding opinions on his exit; some consider it a “mistake,” while others embrace the change.

“There’s already a significant divide because some cast members are lamenting the perceived mistake of letting him go and the disaster it’s caused, while others are eager for more recognition now that he’s absent,” they remarked.

“It’s created chaos already and will likely worsen if Season 6 takes place as planned.”

Of course, these allegations stem from an unnamed source and should be taken as speculation for now. Sheridan and the Yellowstone cast have not spoken out about the alleged division, with only Costner directly addressing his departure.
