When Taylor Sheridan's neo-Western melodrama Yellowstone concluded at the end of 2024, it was anyone's guess how the Duttons' story would continue. The writer and director had told the stories of the family's preceding generations through spin-offs like 1883 and 1923, both of which have also concluded, but the franchise itself had almost become too big to fully die, despite losing a major player in Kevin Costner's John Dutton. Two sequel spin-offs were eventually announced — one revolving around John's youngest son, Kayce (Luke Grimes), in Marshals, and the other following John's daughter, Beth (Kelly Reilly), and her husband Rip Wheeler (Cole Hauser), poised to continue the family's legacy in the appropriately titled Dutton Ranch.
