How ‘Yellowstone’ Said a Disturbing Goodbye to Kevin Costner’s Character John Dutton
"Yellowstone" is back, but Kevin Costner is no longer in the series. Find out how he was written out of the show.
In the first episode of the second half of Season 5, it was revealed that the Dutton family patriarch, played by Kevin Costner, was killed after a fatal gunshot wound in the bathroom of the Montana governor’s mansion. Dutton’s children Beth (Kelly Reilly) and Kayce (Luke Grimes) have raced over when John is late to the first day of his impeachment tribunal, which was instigated by his opportunistic son Jamie (Wes Bentley). Meanwhile, Jamie, who had previously discussed having Beth killed by a hitman with his lover and fixer Sarah (Dawn Olivieri) on the most recent episode of “Yellowstone,” gets a mysterious call from someone who sounds like they’re confirming a successful hit on John using coded language.
