It’s been one year, seven months, and 18 days since Yellowstone ‘s Season 5, Part 1 finale premiered, and here we are, still waiting for Season 5, Part 2.
Fans of Taylor Sheridan’s hit Western drama have been incredibly patient through all the Kevin Costner rumors, filming delays, and general Yellowstone confusion, so we’re pleased to report that at long last, Season 5, Part 2 has an official premiere date.
If you’ve made your way to this post, you’re likely wondering if new episodes return tonight, August 18 — and if not now, then when!? Curious when Yellowstone Season 5, Part 2 premieres on Paramount Network?

While The Great Yellowstone Wait continues, here’s everything to know about Yellowstone Season 5, Part 2, including its return date, Yellowstone streaming info, the latest Kevin Costner updates, and exciting spin-off casting news.
Is Yellowstone on Paramount Network Tonight (August 18)?
Curious if a new episode of Yellowstone airs on Paramount Network tonight, Sunday, August 18? Once again, we regret to inform you that Yellowstone isn’t returning with new episodes on August 18. You know what will be on? And what hasn’t deserted you for nearly two years? Bar Rescue . That’s right! If you tune into Paramount Network on Sunday, you’ll be treated to another Bar Rescue marathon. So when will you see the Duttons again?
When Does Yellowstone Return? Yellowstone Season 5, Part 2 Premiere Date:
As noted above, an official premiere date for Yellowstone Season 5, Part 2 does exist. On June 20, Paramount+ announced that Yellowstone Season 5, Part 2 will premiere on Sunday, November 10th at 8:00 p.m. ET. For those keeping track, we have 87 long days left until we’re back on the ranch.

When Yellowstone does finally return in November 2024, fans want to ensure that they tune into episodes live or record them for later viewing. Why? Sadly, Season 5, Part 2 episodes won’t be available for next-day streaming on Paramount+.
Is Kevin Costner Returning To Yellowstone ?
Another bummer? Kevin Costner, who starred as Yellowstone ‘s powerful patriarch John Dutton, will not be returning in Yellowstone Season 5, Part 2. After more than a year of speculation, Costner announced on social media that he will not be filming new Yellowstone episodes and is done with the show. So how will John Dutton’s absence will be addressed? We still don’t know.
As for why Kevin Costner decided to part ways with Yellowstone , it’s complicated. Decider detailed long-running drama between the actor and Yellowstone creator Taylor Sheridan in past posts, but in a June 20 Instagram video captioned, “An update for you guys. I’ll see you at the movies,”Costner explained that Horizon : An American Saga — the multi-part Western movie he starred in, directed, co-wrote, and produced — played a part in his decision to step back from the series.

“I just want to reach out and let you know that after this long year and a half of working on Horizon , and doing all the things that’s required and thinking about Yellowstone , that beloved series that I love, that I know you love, I just realized that I’m not going to be able to continue, Season 5B or into the future,” the Yellowstone star told followers. “It was something that really changed me. I loved it and I know you loved it, and I just wanted to let you know that I won’t be returning. I love the relationship we’ve been able to develop, and I’ll see you at the movies.” When talking to Extra ‘s Billy Bush days after his announcement, Costner added , “Yeah I just hadn’t heard anything about how [John Dutton’s death] would be done so it’s time to move on as gracefully as you can with something that’s been very important to you…It was time to move.” Ugh!!! A massive loss for the Dutton fam and fans alike.
Will There Be A Yellowstone Season 6 Or Is This Yellowstone ‘s Final Season?
Now that Kevin Costner is out, is there any hope for Yellowstone beyond Season 5, Part 2? Whether John Dutton returned or now, Yellowstone ‘s future was decided back in May 2023. Paramount confirmed that Season 5 would be the show’s final season , so it looks like there won’t be a Season 6.
As the end of the Yellowstone era approaches, stars like Wendy Moniz are even starting to share goodbye messages on social media. “Series wrap for me on Yellowstone and been having alllll the feels; sentimental, proud, grateful to name a few,” Moniz, who plays Senator Lynelle Perry, wrote alongside a collection of photos from her time on the show . “What a beautiful experience I’ve had here; just incredibly fortunate to have worked with so many talented, dedicated, and kind people since 2017.”
Moniz explained, “I completed my last scene August 1st, then recalled having previously shared a gratitude post…looking back, it was on the SAME DATE two years ago. There’s been a lot to reflect on, because this place, with the exceptional people who make it live and breathe, has often felt like a home away from home over these last 7 years.”
This may be the end for Yellowstone , but fans still have several spin-offs to look forward to.
Yellowstone Spin-off s: The Madison , Michelle Pfeiffer, And More Updates
Hardcore Yellowstone fans likely know that two spinoffs — tentatively titled 1944 and 2024 — were announced ahead of the Season 5, Part 2 premiere, but on August 8, MTV Entertainment Studios and 101 Studios announced and exciting update: Michelle Pfeiffer will be executive producing and starring in The Madison , previously titled 2024 .
The upcoming series is described as “a heartfelt study of grief and human connection following a New York City family in the Madison River valley of central Montana,” and Variety previously reported that it’s expected to feature some crossover characters from Yellowstone . Regarding Pfeiffer’s casting, Chris McCarthy, Paramount Global Co-CEO and President/CEO, Showtime & MTV Entertainment Studios, had the following to say : “Michelle Pfeiffer is a remarkable talent who imbues every role with emotional depth, authenticity and grace.
