It’s The Casting Update We’ve Been Waiting For
Hearing that Finn Little is joining the Beth and Rip Yellowstone spinoff is the announcement many fans have been waiting for. It didn’t make sense for the couple to continue without Carter, especially after he moved with them to start a new endeavor. Little’s inclusion in the cast means Beth and Rip can continue to navigate their arc as surrogate parents.
Knowing that Carter is sticking by Beth and Rip in their continuation means that, at least on some level, Dutton and Wheeler have accepted their role as Carter’s permanent guardians. After Carter’s father died, Beth and Rip became his caretakers, suggesting he could stay at the Yellowstone Dutton Ranch. Beth and Rip have taken Carter on now that it’s sold.
