Costner expressed his desire to continue with the series, despite past conflicts with the show's creator and the network. Yellowstone has been a fan favorite, with a stellar cast including Luke Grimes, Kelly Reilly, Wes Bentley, Cole Hauser, and Kelsey Asbille.
Paramount Network announced that Yellowstone would conclude after Season 5, with the final season split into two parts due to production delays caused by Hollywood strikes. Costner, who plays the lead character John Dutton, hinted at his willingness to return for the final part of the series.
Costner shared his thoughts on how he envisions John Dutton's story wrapping up, emphasizing the importance of a proactive conclusion. However, his return is subject to approval from the show's creator, Taylor Sheridan, and negotiations with Paramount Network for a new contract.
Previous reports indicated tension between Costner and the network, with disagreements over financial terms and creative issues. Despite these challenges, Costner's renewed interest in continuing with Yellowstone has sparked hope among fans for a proper farewell to his character.
While awaiting updates on Costner's involvement in Yellowstone, fans can look forward to his upcoming project, a four-part feature film titled Horizon. The film is set to be released in theaters this summer, with Costner describing it as a saga of interconnected storylines.
As the saga of Yellowstone unfolds, viewers eagerly anticipate how John Dutton's journey will conclude and whether Costner will reprise his iconic role for the series' final installment.
