Why ‘Yellowstone’ Fans Think Kevin Costner Is Leaving
There are a lot of rumors surrounding the hit show Yellowstone. The number one rumor of late is that Kevin Costner is leaving the series and his role as John Dutton III.
The main reason that the rumors persist is that the recent Golden Globe winner and the other main stars of the series did not show up at a fan event called PaleyFest.
Besides Kevin Costner, the show’s creator Taylor Sheridan was also set to be part of a very special panel that was going to answer questions. This seemed like a very special evening for the show’s superfans. Instead, it was a huge disappointment.
Instead, the only John Dutton that showed up was Josh Lucas, who plays the younger John Dutton.
Paramount Executive ‘Confident’ At Kevin Costner’s Return
Although Kevin and Taylor were not at the event, fans wanted to know if John Dutton would return.
Keith Cox, one Paramount executive, predicted that he was “confident” that Kevin Costner would return to the series.
Does this mean that Kevin Costner did not leave Yellowstone?
Although there is nothing official about Kevin departing the series, he is currently not filming anything. The set is chaotic as Sheridan does not know what is happening, and he needs to write episodes.
Why is a delay in the remaining Season 5 episodes because of Costner?
When Is Yellowstone Season 5, Part 2 Premiering?
Currently, Yellowstone creator Taylor Sheridan has 10 different shows that he is working on for Paramount. However, it is the OG with Kevin Costner that everyone is asking about.
Therefore, when will the series return? When will fans get to see the remaining six episodes of Season 5?
Although Yellowstone Season 5 was originally set to return in the summer, they have not yet begun filming those episodes.
This all goes back to accusations about Kevin Costner’s lack of ability to film the hit Paramount series. There have been some scuttlebutt and accusations thrown at Costner.
On Paramount’s side, they claim that the star is only available for a week. Meanwhile, his lawyer Marty Singer calls these accusing “lies.”
But, according to Puck News, Kevin’s attorney revealed that the star is very dedicated to his role as John Dutton.
As anyone who knows anything about Kevin knows, he is incredibly passionate about the show and has always gone above and beyond to ensure its success.
Then again, many fans and television critics wonder if this will be the end of John Dutton.
