Created by Taylor Sheridan, the neo-Western family drama on Paramount+ has spawned several spinoffs, with more in development. There’s something special about the flagship show, especially as it prepares to wrap up. After a lengthy delay,Yellowstoneseason 5, part 2 will officially release in November.

The social media post features the announcement video ofYellowstoneseason 5, part 2 release date. However, it’s in the caption that Bohen adds his tease, writing: “Clear your calendar. Grab your tissues. Send the youngins off to your sisters house. It’s gonna get real western around here.”

The Duttons Are Once Again In Crisis.

John’s demise could also be the launching pad for a more intense rivalry between Beth and Jamie, leaving Kayce in the middle of an all-out family in-fighting.

While Bohen doesn’t reveal any spoilers in his social media post, hyping the remainder ofYellowstone’s run to be emotional may indicate what’s to come for the Duttons. After months of conversations, it has already been confirmed thatKevin Costner won’t return as John Dutton IIIin season 5, part 2. ConsideringtheYellowstonecharacter’sdedication to the family ranch, even going to great lengths to make sure it remains in their possession, Sheridan needs to come up with a justified explanation for his absence.

Arguably the best way to go about this is for the character to die. As devastating as it would be, it is the only acceptable reason why John would not be on his turf. He wouldn’t willingly leave, especially considering what’s happening between Beth and Jamie. As the Dutton family patriarch, his death gives viewers plenty to be emotional about, which fits Bohen’s tease about theYellowstonefinale. John’s demise could also be the launching pad fora more intense rivalry between Beth and Jamie, leaving Kayce in the middle of an all-out family in-fighting.

Kevin Costner has confirmed John Dutton’s Yellowstone finale absence. While that’s disappointing, an HBO show proves it can lead to a better ending.

After the flagship series wraps up in a few months, the Duttons' contemporary story will continue via theYellowstonesequel show. Plot specifics for the follow-up series are still uncertain, but it is confirmed to feature Cole Hauser, Kelly Reilly, and Luke Grime as Rip, Beth, and Kayce. Considering this, whatever happens inYellowstoneseason 5, part 2 should also double as a lead-in to what happens to the remainder of the family moving forward.
