Yellowstone Finale: John Dutton's Absence, Prequels, and Sequels - What to Expect in November 2024

The highly anticipated final episodes of the Paramount Network series 'Yellowstone' are set to premiere on November 10, 2024. The show, which follows the Dutton family and their struggles with shifting alliances, unsolved murders, and open wounds as they navigate conflicts with an expanding town, an Indian reservation, and America's first national park (Paramount Network), has been in production since May 2024 after a long hiatus. The hit Western series had previously confirmed its return in November but faced delays due to the writers' strike. Despite these challenges, fans are eagerly anticipating the conclusion of this modern-day family saga.

John Dutton, portrayed by Kevin Costner, has been at the heart of Yellowstone since its debut in 2018. However, recent reports suggest that Costner may not be involved in the final episodes due to scheduling conflicts and a dispute with the show's creator Taylor Sheridan (People).

The first half of season 5 concluded on January 1, 2023, leaving viewers on a cliffhanger. While there is no official confirmation regarding Costner's return, fans are hopeful that he will make an appearance to wrap up the storylines for his iconic character.

In the meantime, Paramount Network has announced two prequels - '1833' and '1923' - currently running on Paramount Plus. Additionally, a sequel called '2024,' featuring Matthew McConaughey and Michelle Pfieffer, as well as a prequel titled 'Four Sixes or 6666,' about the Four Sixes Ranch, are in development (Tom's Guide).

Stay tuned for more updates on this highly anticipated finale.
