‘Yellowstone’ star Lainey Wilson has ‘absolutely no clue’ what’s happening with Season 5 return
told Fox News Digital ahead of the 2024 iHeartRadioMusic Awards Monday night.“I have absolutely no clue,” the country music star continued. “I did talk to [series star] Kelly Reilly [who plays Beth Dutton] the other day and, you know, we’ll see what happens.“Once they give us the call — we’re there.”Wilson joined “Yellowstone” in the first half of Season 5 and made her acting debut as Abby, a country music singer who performed at John Dutton’s (Kevin Costner) inaugural celebration as the new governor of Montana.It’s no surprise that Wilson has “no clue” what’s going on with the final episodes of “Yellowstone.” Word of when shooting will begin has been shrouded in mystery amidst ongoing drama between series star Costner — who is not currently expected to return — and series co-creator/writer Taylor Sheridan.There was also the double-whammy WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes, which put filming on the back burner and pushed the season premiere from November 2023 to November 2024.”Yellowstone,” which commands a massive cable audience, has not aired a new episode since November 2022, so it will be two years between seasons once (and if) it makes its scheduled return.The series, set in the present-day, follows the saga of the Dutton ranching family in Montana and counts among its co-stars Reilly, Wes Bentley, Cole Hauser, Luke Grimes and Kelsey Asbille.Reilly, Grimes and Hauser are also reportedly seeking raises for the show’s final season.Bentley said last June that he would “celebrate” the show ending.
