Yellowstone fans were left disappointed when the main cast failed to show up at PaleyFest, the nation’s premier TV festival, on Saturday night. Despite being listed as attending the special screening and Q&A, Kevin Costner, Kelly Reilly, Cole Hauser, Luke Grimes, Kelsey Asbille, Wes Betley, Gil Birmingham, and Jacki Weaver were all absent. This has only fueled rumors that Costner’s future on the hit show is in doubt, especially since only Josh Lucas, who plays a younger John Dutton, and three other minor cast members attended the event.
Fans were also left in the dark about the back half of Season 5, which has not yet been filmed, despite Yellowstone’s immense popularity. Although Mo Brings Plenty, one of the minor cast members, promised fans that what’s to come is “mind-blowing and wonderful,” he confirmed that production has yet to begin. This has surprised many fans, especially since the show’s Season 5 premiere broke records and the midseason finale in January left fans wanting more.
