While the actor didn't share any additional details about the new spin-off, in a March 2023 interview with the Hollywood Reporter, Paramount Media Networks head Chris McCarthy confirmed that McConaughey would be joining the Yellowstone universe.
So, no, McConaughey isn't replacing Costner on Yellowstone. According to People, a source close to the situation said that McConaughey and Taylor Sheridan have been looking to join up for a project.
Earlier reports highlighted that Costner had issues with the shooting schedule. Yellowstone shot and aired the first half of its fifth season, but according to Puck's Matthew Belloni, was waiting for a clear sense of Costner's availability before moving to the second part.
Played by Kevin Costner, John Dutton III is the head of the family all throughout Yellowstone. He's the eventual Governor of Montana and father of four: Lee, Beth, Kayce, and Jamie (although he's technically adopted).
It might be surprising to know that the actress has red hair naturally. Kelly's beautiful shoulder red hair is why she has to wear a blonde wig in the drama. Being a redhead naturally, the producers must ensure the character's looks do not underplay her character.
In season 4 of Yellowstone, Beth (Kelly Reilly) befriends a young orphan named Carter (Finn Little) as the two await news of their respective fathers, both clinging to life. The chubby-cheeked boy found his way into Beth and Rip's (Cole Hauser) life after sadly childless Beth took him in.
Cole Hauser plays Rip Wheeler in Yellowstone. Rip is the unofficially adopted son of John Dutton. In flashbacks, Rip was revealed to have fled to the ranch after his mother and brother got murdered by his stepdad. Rip killed his stepdad, but the wounds of not saving his family left an indelible mark on him.
Kayce John Dutton is a main character on Yellowstone. He is John and Evelyn Dutton's son. He has a complex and tense relationship with his father, who increaslingly regrets the emotional distance between them. Kayce is married to Monica and they have a son, Tate.
Spencer Dutton
The younger brother of John Dutton Sr. (and the youngest child of 1883's James and Margaret Dutton, born after that show's conclusion) Spencer served in WWI and remains haunted by his experiences.
Thanks to a deal made before “Yellowstone” turned out to be an enormous hit, and before Paramount Plus was up and running, “Yellowstone” instead calls Peacock its exclusive streaming home. Peacock is the NBCUniversal streaming service.
While most of the first three seasons of this hit show, which premiered in 2018 on Paramount Network, were filmed in and around Utah, production moved to Montana for the fourth season and onward. (See a list of filming and production locations on IMDb.)
Is Matthew McConaughey joining Yellowstone? Yes! Yellowstone showrunner Taylor Sheridan and Paramount boss Chris McCarthy confirmed via the Hollywood Reporter that Matthew McConaughey is leading the cast of a new spin-off.
The drama about whether Kevin Costner will continue on Taylor Sheridan's Yellowstone got a little more intense Wednesday. Entertainment Tonight, citing sources close to the show's production, reported that Costner will not return after Season 5.
As Beth keeps reminding viewers, she has been perpetually angry at Jamie for how Jamie inadvertently made her sterile by helping her get an abortion when they were both teenagers. Combined with Jamie being adopted and his actions in previous Yellowstone seasons, Beth has only gotten madder at Jamie over the years.
When his father gave him a chance to come back on the ranch, Kayce went to live in the bunkhouse and started to work his way back in. Later on, his father appointed him as the new foreman of the ranch, succeeding his brother Lee and Rip Wheeler, and he and his family started to live in the ranch house.

The phrase dormit in pace (English: "[he] sleeps in peace") was found in the catacombs of the early Christians and indicated that "they died in the peace of the Church, that is, united in Christ." The abbreviation R.I.P., meaning Requiescat in pace, "Rest in peace", continues to be engraved on the gravestones of ...

Beth Dutton: ENTJ
She is fiercely competitive, and always wants to be the best at everything she does. ENTJs are high achievers and this can be said for Beth.
At first glance, his hair appears to be a wig, but in actuality, it is his authentic hair.
As a teenager, Beth fell pregnant and asked her older brother, Jamie to accompany her to a clinic for a termination. Instead, Jamie and the doctor agreed to give Beth a hysterectomy without her consent, leaving her infertile for the rest of her life.
