Kevin Costner, who stars as John Dutton, reportedly asked to return to Yellowstone Season 5 and discussed it with Taylor Sheridan.
“I’d heard that Costner’s reps were basically begging for Sheridan and Paramount to have him back for 5B and possibly Seasons 6 and 7,” Belloni wrote in his newsletter.
Sheridan was willing to write Costner back into Yellowstone Season 5 and spoke with the actor about a potential return in July. But, Costner’s return included a list of demands, including an increased salary, reduced shooting schedule, and “the right to review, approve and potentially veto every Sheridan script.” Sheridan, who writes every episode, did not agree to the veto.
The report mentioned how “it’s now more likely than ever that Costner won’t return” to Yellowstone. If the Dutton patriarch is killed off the show, it will have to be approved by Costner, who has a “moral death” provision in his contract, according to Belloni. This clause means the character cannot be killed off in ways “that would cause shame or embarrassment to John Dutton – and, implicitly, to Costner and his family.”.
