Kevin Costner’s ‘Yellowstone’ fate, co-creator says ‘I don’t do f--k-you car crashes’
foxnews.com"Yellowstone" co-creator Taylor Sheridan revealed Kevin Costner's beloved John Dutton will meet his end before the Paramount+ series comes to a close.
Sheridan didn't reveal exactly how Dutton's chapter would finish but did clarify some of the rumblings about how the end of "Yellowstone" came to be in a new interview with The Hollywood Reporter. "My last conversation with Kevin was that he had this passion project he wanted to direct," Sheridan revealed. "He and the network were arguing about when he could be done with ‘Yellowstone.’ I said, ‘We can certainly work a schedule toward [his preferred exit date],’ which we did." "My opinion of Kevin as an actor hasn’t altered," Sheridan added. "His creation of John Dutton is symbolic and powerful… and I’ve never had an issue with Kevin that he and I couldn’t work out on the phone.
But once lawyers get involved, then people don’t get to talk to each other and start saying things that aren’t true and attempt to shift blame based on how the press or public seem to be reacting." Sheridan continued: "He took a lot of this on the chin and I don’t know that anyone deserves it.
His movie seems to be a great priority to him and he wants to shift focus. I sure hope [the movie is] worth it — and that it’s a good one." Costner stars as John Dutton in the Paramount Network series.The series' success led to multiple spin-off shows, including "1923" and "1883," along with an upcoming show starring Matthew McConaughey.
