Amidst the rumors of Kevin Costner’s exit from the Yellowstone universe,
a fleeting rumor has also taken the internet by storm — a Matthew McConaughey-led spin-off (via People).
There’s also a part of the rumor, which says that Kelly Reilly (who played Beth Dutton in the series) might
be joining the spin-off. But, the actress straight-off denied these rumors. Beth Dutton is a central character in the TV series. She’s the daughter of John Dutton (Costner), the owner of the Yellowstone Dutton Ranch, which is a huge cattle ranch in Montana. Beth is
known for being tough, smart, and fiercely protective of her family’s interests.
Kelly Reilly Shares Disappointing News Over Her Appearance in Potential Yellowstone Spin-off
Kelly Reilly teased an exciting conclusion for Yellowstone. But she firmly shuts down the reports of Beth Dutton appearing in a spin-off – at least for now. She’s concentrating on doing a great job in the current series.
This news might bum out fans who wanted more of Beth’s character, but it means the English actress is fully committed to giving her best performance in the role we all enjoy. In an interview with Radio Times, the 46-yaer-old star said:
“I just care about finishing [‘Yellowstone’] with as much care and as much passion and as much love as I can muster to put into it. That’s what I care about. I’m sort of prepping for that now [and] that’s my tunnel vision thing that I care about most. And what goes on beyond that? There are discussions … Don’t believe everything you read. It’s just nonsense. But … let’s wait and see.”
