Simply perhaps don’t depend Kevin Costner amongst these followers.
Costner, after all, was the high-profile lead that helped flip Yellowstone from a cable oddity into the most-watched scripted venture. However scheduling conflicts and behind-the-scenes disagreements between the Oscar winner and Sheridan led to his official exit, which held true regardless of makes an attempt to get him again on the present.

Luke Grimes stoked some probably feud-worthy flames lately when he claimed filming the ultimate episodes with out Costner was far simpler, and concerned far much less battle, than something earlier than. These quotes sparked hypothesis about Grimes and Costner butting heads, and the actor was additionally requested if he’d spoken to his former on-screen son. Maybe tellingly, he first stored silent, after which verbally shut the questioning down by saying:
Clearly that does not show any emotions of in poor health will on Kevin Costner’s half, and he was even good about, telling the man questioning him to watch out and never slip on the icy roads. However it did not precisely make his and Grimes’ relationship seem to be sunshine and ranbows both.
