Fans were shocked by claims that Costner would step away from his role as the head of the Dutton family.

Writer Taylor Sheridan decided to end the show as a result of Costner’s claimed choice.

A spin-off featuring Matthew McConaughey is rumored to be in production.

Sheridan and Costner allegedly had a falling out over the actor’s filming commitments for another project.

This was denied by the actor’s attorney, who said that the idea that Kevin was only prepared to work one week on the second half of season five of Yellowstone is an absolute lie.

Costner and Sheridan were both set to attend a panel at TV convention PaleyFest for the show alongside co-stars.
