Yellowstone season 5, part 2 will be arriving in November 2024, and it’s confirmed it will be the last season of the hit show. Audiences cannot get enough of the acclaimed contemporary Western series by Taylor Sheridan, which has been a major success for streaming platform Paramount+. In fact, Yellowstone has already inspired two series spinoffs: 1883 and 1923, period dramas that serve as prequels to Yellowstone, and 6666, an upcoming series about Texas’ Four Sixes Ranch.
Yellowstone season 5, part 1 ended dangerously for the Dutton family. The ranch hands make their way to the Four Sixes in Texas to save their cattle, leaving Kayce in charge. Meanwhile, in a twist to Beth and Jamie’s rivalry in Yellowstone, Jamie gets the upper hand when threatening to reveal John’s involvement in multiple murders. Anticipating his family’s moves, Jamie gets help from Sarah Atwood, who convinces Jamie to hire assassins. It sets the stage for an intense showdown in the final chapter of the series, with season 5 part 2 promising to be Yellowstone’s most shocking yet.
Latest Yellowstone Season 5 Part 2 News
As the dust has finally settled on the Kevin Costner drama, and the release date is confirmed, the latest news reveals that filming has wrapped on Yellowstone season 5 part 2. The update was provided by Governor Lynelle Perry actor Wendy Moniz who took to her official Instagram account to commemorate the final day of filming for the long-running series. In her post, Moniz reminisced on the experience of working on the show, saying she is “having alllll the feels; sentimental, proud, grateful to name a few.” Considering the November release date, season 5 part 2 will have a quick post-production phase.
Yellowstone Season 5 Part 2 Release Date
Earlier in 2024, a release window of November 2024 was teased for the final episodes of Yellowstone, but the Taylor Sheridan hit has finally narrowed down a specific release date. Coming early in its previously announced release window, Yellowstone season 5 part 2 will debut its first episode on November 10, 2024, at 8 pm EST. At this juncture, it is still unclear how many episodes will comprise the final half of the last season.
Yellowstone Season 5 Part 2 Cast
Perhaps the largest uncertainty hanging over the entire franchise was the return of Kevin Costner to his role as family patriarch John Dutton.
Everyone in the main cast of Yellowstone season 5, part 1 will be returning for part 2. This means that Beth (Kelly Reilly), Jamie (Wes Bentley), Kayce (Luke Grimes), and Monica Dutton (Kelsey Asbille) will be reprising their respective roles. Perhaps the largest uncertainty hanging over the entire franchise was the return of Kevin Costner to his role as family patriarch John Dutton. While news seemed to waffle for months, Costner finally set the record straight in June 2024 when he confirmed he wouldn’t be back.
Yellowstone Season 5 Part 2 Story Details
Yellowstone season 5, part 2 will be building towards the end of the show. Upon finding out about the Train Station in part 1, the first thing Beth does is to suggest to John that they need to kill Jamie, who, in turn, is conspiring with Sarah Atwood to make the first move. For the first time in the show, Yellowstone season 5, part 2 could see the Duttons fighting without Rip by their side, as Rip leads the ranch hands’ journey with the cattle to Texas — possibly connecting the main series to the upcoming 6666 spinoff.
Meanwhile, with Jamie’s impeachment attempt against John hanging over the governor’s head, John Dutton’s conservation easement plan for the ranch could get overtaken by Jamie and Sarah’s schemes to commercialize the property. Broken Rock representatives Chief Thomas Rainwater, Mo, and Angela Blue-Thunder could still turn the tide, depending on how the Duttons’ plans could affect the federal government running a pipeline through the reservation. It sets the stage for an epic end to Yellowstone where there will surely be many casualties by the time season 5 part 2 concludes.
