Summary
Kevin Costner's departure from "Yellowstone" has triggered backlash as his character, John Dutton, was killed off in Season 5's second half premiere. The show leads to dark sibling rivalries as Jamie seeks political power after John's death. Meanwhile, Costner focuses on a film series, hinting at future projects.
