The Yellowstone drama keeps growing.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Kevin Costner's Yellowstone contract controls how John Dutton dies, as a new report reveals the actor's moral death clause. While the fate of John Dutton has been delayed, due to the ongoing WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes, the reported conflict between series lead Costner, creator Taylor Sheridan, and Paramount has grown from the star requesting a reduced schedule to speculation that he may not return to Yellowstone at all.
A new report from journalist Matt Belloni in his Puck newsletter sheds light on the ongoing dispute with Costner, and how it could impact Yellowstone season 5 part 2. Belloni begins by mentioning that Costner has a "moral death" provision in his deal with Yellowstone. The provision, which was inserted during one of the Oscar winner's contract negotiations, lists in general terms the ways that Costner's character can and cannot be killed off.
What's Going On With Kevin Costner & Yellowstone? Reports of the conflict began earlier this year, as news circulated that Costner was refusing to finish Yellowstone season 5 part 2 until he was given a reduced schedule to film the Horizon sequel, which he's directing. According to Belloni's reporting, Costner also wanted to be satisfied with his character's arc.
The new report focuses on how Costner has made efforts to negotiate with Paramount throughout the summer, combined with what are referred to as "aggressive demands" to Sheridan and producers. Costner really wanted to return to Yellowstone, according to the actor's producing partner Rod Lake. The star felt it'd be a good way of promoting his Horizon movie, while also giving fans what they wanted.
Costner and Sheridan had a phone call in early July to discuss how the former could return to the hit Western series. Per the report, Costner shared a list of demands with Sheridan. It included an increase in pay, a reduced schedule, and the right to potentially veto the show's scripts. That last demand was a non-starter, with talks breaking down and Paramount pulling its offer for Costner to return.
