Kevin Costner says he loved his time on Yellowstone and would be open to reprising his role as John Dutton if asked (even after more than a year of off-camera tensions) — but only if he feels “really comfortable” with what’s presented to him.

Kevin Costner’s role in the future of Yellowstone is up in the air. As Season 5 Part 2 is slated for a November 2024 premiere, the success of the show largely depends on his performance as John Dutton — the patriarch of the Dutton ranching dynasty.
But there are rumors circulating about tension between Costner and the show’s creator, Taylor Sheridan, due to disagreements about where the show is headed. The Yellowstone star might not be entirely happy with the progress of the show, which could be a reason for his departure, too.

Believe it or not, even the most beloved movies can face initial skepticism from actors. Field of Dreams, a 1989 classic, became more than just a sports movie. It delved into deeper themes like redemption, family, and the importance of pursuing dreams. Despite its universal appeal, Ray Liotta, who played the memorable character “Shoeless” Joe Jackson, wasn’t immediately sold on the story.

At first, the idea of ghosts playing baseball in a cornfield seemed a bit too far-fetched for him. However, he changed his mind and decided to be part of it, thanks to the great friendships he formed with the cast, especially Kevin Costner.

Kevin Costner starred as an escaped convict who takes a boy hostage in Clint Eastwood’s 1993 film, A Perfect World. Eastwood was given the script right after his Oscar-winning film Unforgiven.

Long before he sauntered into the role of John Dutton III and seized the reins of the family ranch on Yellowstone, Kevin Costner was one of the most in-demand filmmakers and leading men in Hollywood.
Now, the Oscar- and Emmy-winner is ditching the small screen and returning to his roots.
In what might be his most ambitious project to date, Costner has directed a sprawling Western epic that will be released in theaters in two parts this summer.
This is a man who was born to saddle up and gaze into the camera from beneath a wide-brimmed Stetson, so naturally, Costner will be playing the lead role in both films.
The first trailer dropped today, and anticipation among Costner devotees and horse opera fanatics is at an all-time high.

Actor Kevin Costner and his ex-wife, Christine Baumgartner, have finalized their divorce nine months after the papers were first filed.
Baumgartner filed for divorce in May 2023 after 19 years of marriage. The two reached a settlement in September 2023. Full details are unclear. However, a judge has validated their prenuptial agreements.
The pair both filed for joint custody of their three teenage children. Baumgartner will receive $63,209 a month in child support from Costner, confirmed after a two-day hearing. Baumgartner originally requested $165,000 a month. Costner and Baumgartner were also excused from participating in co-parenting classes.

While The Hollywood Reporter has told "Yellowstone" fans to expect a lot less of Kevin Costner's John Dutton in the final episodes of the wildly popular series, Puck's Matthew Belloni is now claiming that the actor may not appear in season 5b at all. "The question is whether Costner is in those final episodes of this season of 'Yellowstone,'" Hollywood insider Belloni said on a recent episode of "The Town" podcast, "and my understanding is that, as of now, he is not gonna be in those episodes."
This news arrives in the wake of an ongoing disagreement between star Costner and series creator Taylor Sheridan, which according to Deadline's reporting involves issues related to pay negotiation, creative differences, and the decision to split the show's fifth season into two parts. "Somewhere along the line, they wanted to change things," Costner said during a court proceeding related to...

After almost 19 years of marriage, Kevin Costner and Christine Baumgartner have reached a settlement in their divorce.
“Kevin and Christine Costner have come to an amicable and mutually agreed upon resolution of all issues pertaining to their divorce proceedings,” said the couple in a joint statement.
This week, Costner was seen shopping for women’s clothing, so some on social media have speculated that he has met a new woman.
The agreement will allow the couple to avoid the trial that had been scheduled for December. They previously fought in court over child support payments in September, when a judge ordered Costner to pay around $63,000 per month for their three children. Baumgartner originally sought out $175,000 per month.
Baumgartner filed for divorce from Costner in May, citing “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for their split.
Initially, she refused to move out of his $145 million mansion as she was required to do by their prenup.

Kevin Costner’s Horizon is finally, well, on the horizon.
On Oct. 5, Warner Bros. put the actor-director’s Western epic (brief teaser trailer below) on its schedule, announcing the first film in the planned four-part project — Horizon: An American Saga Chapter 1 — will arrive in theaters June 28, with the second coming out two months later, on Aug. 16. The third film, currently undated, is expected to start production after the SAG-AFTRA strike is resolved. The decision comes as Costner exits his other Western, Paramount’s Yellowstone, amid some O.K. Corral-level hostilities among him, the studio and showrunner Taylor Sheridan.
The back-to-back Horizon release strategy is bold, and virtually unprecedented, for a major Hollywood title. Warner Bros. sources point to Clint Eastwood’s 2006 World War II films, Flags of Our Fathers and Letters From Iwo Jima, as an example: They were released about two months apart (though, unlike the Horizon movies,...

With the final episodes of Yellowstone still a long way off, a new report about how much creative control Kevin Costner had in the Paramount Network drama has come to light.
According to Puck News, Costner had a "moral death" provision as part of his contract.
This reportedly meant that the actor had a say in how John Dutton can and cannot be killed off, assuming the show travels that avenue.
While there have been reports that the final episodes have yet to be written, Puck claims that episodes for the back half of Yellowstone Season 5 had been written but didn't include the show's leading man.
Costner, whose availability has been reported as a big concern for the series, was allegedly interested in returning for the rest of the season -- and beyond.
The outlet states that Sheridan was interested in keeping Costner around but that it all fell apart...

The bitter divorce battle between Kevin Costner and Christine Baumgartner continues.
On Monday, the “Yellowstone” star filed documents with the court hitting back at his ex’s request for the actor to pay her a “whopping” $885,000 for her legal fees, People reported.

Calling the requested amount “unreasonable” and “nothing short of outrageous,” Costner’s legal team claimed that he has already paid Baumgartner $405,000 in fees.
“The Family Code requires the Court to assess whether the fees incurred and prospective fees are reasonably necessary,” the filing states. “Although Kevin is the wealthier party with a higher cash flow than Christine, Christine is quite capable of contributing to her own attorneys’ fees.”

After a legal struggle over his child support payments to Christine, Kevin Costner has discussed his divorce in public for the first time.
The 68-year-old star has been fighting with Christine in court for child support payments. Christine Baumgartner, the separated wife of actor Kevin Costner, was unsuccessful in obtaining increased child support because Kevin contended that she didn’t need it and cited the financial assistance her new partner provided.
At a hearing to determine a long-term amount of child support that Costner will consistently pay each month for their three children, Baumgartner and Costner both appeared in court.
According to reports, Judge Thomas Anderle ordered the Oscar-winning actor to pay $63,209, which is slightly less than half of the $129,755 that Costner has been making monthly payments since a temporary ruling in July 2023 and slightly more than one-quarter of the $248,000 per month Baumgartner initially requested after filing for divorce in May,...

Kevin Costner’s estranged wife, Christine Baumgartner, has been ordered to pay $14,237.50 that Costner accrued in legal fees.
On Wednesday, Judge Thomas Anderle ruled that Baumgartner must pay a portion of Costner’s fees, which he acquired while attempting to obtain her answers about whether she understood their prenuptial agreement.
Costner’s lawyers requested that the court compel Baumgartner to answer their questions about the prenup after she was accused of attempting to prolong their divorce. This is due to her claiming that she did not comprehend the words “understood” or “negotiation” after being asked questions relating to the validity of their agreement.
Through Costner’s attempts to gain answers from Baumgartner, he has spent thousands of dollars in legal fees. “Discovery is not a game of chicken. Kevin should never have been required to spend money to file a motion,” his attorneys stated in court documents.

The order comes less than a week after Costner’s monthly child support payments were drastically reduced.
Kevin Costner just scored another victory in court — albeit a smaller one — after the judge in his divorce case sanctioned the actor’s estranged wife and ordered her to pay a chunk of his attorney’s fees.
The judge on Wednesday ordered Christine Baumgartner to fork over $14,237.50 to cover Costner’s attorney fees after he said he was forced to file a motion to compel because he claimed she refused to answer, “without justification,” basic discovery. In court documents he filed Aug. 30 in Santa Barbara Court and obtained by Et, Costner claimed Baumgartner had every opportunity for nearly three months to answer his “straightforward discovery requests” but failed to do so.
As Et previously reported, Costner accused Baumgartner of using “stalling tactics” to drag out the bitter divorce battle. His legal team also...

Now that the dust has settled on the “contentious” and “acrimonious” battle over how much Kevin Costner should pay his estranged wife in child support, the judge is explaining why he sided with the actor and not Christine Baumgartner.
According to court documents obtained by Et, Santa Barbara County Judge Thomas P. Anderle on Tuesday released a 17-page summary of the child support case and the reasons behind his conclusions that ultimately gave the Yellowstone star a huge victory, after the court ordered his monthly child support payments be drastically reduced — from $129,000 per month to $63,209. Costner and Baumgartner share three children — sons Cayden, 16, and Hayes, 14, and daughter Grace, 13. Baumgartner filed for divorce in May after 18 years of marriage.
During a two-day hearing last week — which the judge referred to as “contentious; acrimonious at times” — Baumgartner testified as to why the monthly child support figure should be increased to $161,000 per month,...

The move came around the same time that a Santa Barbara County judge cut down the amount Costner was obligated to pay Baumgartner in child support — from $129,000 to $63,209. This move came after she had asked the judge to increase payments to $161,000.

By now, if you're a "Yellowstone" fan (Yellowstoner? Stonehead?), you've probably already made peace with the dramatic dissolution of the show that occurred over the past few months. This past May, star Kevin Costner, the original patriarch of the now-sprawling Taylor Sheridan-verse, revealed that he'd be leaving the flagship series. Just two days later, Paramount announced that season 5 would actually be the series' last. It was unclear at the time exactly what motivated this sudden burst of dramatic decisions. But there was enough information out there to develop theories.
For starters, the shake-up came in the middle of a split season: Paramount and Sheridan decided to split season 5 into two chunks, one airing at the end of 2022 and the other to come this fall. It's not an unusual move in the TV landscape. Showrunners sometimes make the decision to buy back time to produce the rest of a season,...

Yellowstone fans are hearing more about Kevin Costner’s exit from the Paramount Network hit — straight from the John Dutton portrayer himself. Costner, 68, spoke out about his Yellowstone departure at a child support hearing in Santa Barbara, California, on Friday, September 1, according to People. “It’s a little disappointing that [it’s] the #1 show on TV [and] I’m not participating,” Costner said during the hearing, which is a part of his ongoing divorce from Christine Baumgartner. The actor said that a “long, hard-fought negotiation” led to him leaving Yellowstone to focus on writing, directing, producing, and starring in Horizon: An American Saga, slated to be a four-part film series. Paramount Network Costner told the court that after the decision was made to split Yellowstone Season 5 into two parts, he “changed” his schedule. “That’s a big deal in this world,” he added, per People. Then came production issues, according to Costner’s recounting.

There have been plenty of rumours surrounding Kevin Costner’s exit from “Yellowstone” after five seasons starring in one of the streaming world’s most successful series.
Earlier this year, various reports emerged, some indicating tensions between Costner and series creator Taylor Sheridan over the direction of the show, others claiming scheduling conflicts involving “Horizon: An American Saga”, a four-part western miniseries that Costner is directing, and has been his long-in-the-works passion project. Meanwhile, other reports alleged Costner would only make himself available for filming one day per week, or that he had insisted on filming all his scenes for six episodes within a one-week time frame.
Costner, however, set the record straight while providing testimony Friday during court proceedings in his divorce from wife Christine Baumgartner.

Once upon a time, Yellowstone seemed to have no end in sight.
All of that came crashing down this year amid rumors of unrest on the set due to Kevin Costner's supposed lack of availability to shoot the back half of Yellowstone Season 5.
In recent months, Paramount Network has canceled the highly-rated series but still intends on filming and airing a final batch of episodes to halt the Dutton family's present-day drama.
Costner spoke publicly about his departure for the first time during a child support hearing as part of his divorce proceedings from his wife, Christine Baumgartner.
Initial reports earlier this year suggested Costner's exit was due to his shooting schedule, but the actor claimed he changed his own schedule to film the first part of Yellowstone Season 5.
In turn, it meant he had less focus and time to shoot his four-part movie franchise Horizon.

“Yellowstone” star Kevin Costner is threatening to sue the show’s producers over money he believes he’s still owed from the series. The actor spoke publicly on Friday for the first time about his falling out with the hit Paramount Network series, while on the stand in a Santa Barbara courtroom.
Costner discussed the “Yellowstone” acrimony during a child support hearing, part of his divorce proceedings from wife Christine Baumgartner. As described by People magazine and other outlets that attended the hearings, Costner — whose impending exit from “Yellowstone” was previously reported in February — expressed frustration with not being able to continue on the series.

Kevin Costner has gone on record for the first time with his side of the months-long dispute with the hit show Yellowstone.
Costner testified at his divorce hearing on Friday, and the conversation dug into his finances from the Paramount Network series that has grown to become the most watched drama on television.
According to People (along with other reports), the 68-year-old Golden Globe-winning Yellowstone star said he might take the show to court to settle their differences. Costner claimed he’s owed $12 million for the not-yet-filmed second half of season five after Paramount “walked away” from negotiations.
“It’s a little disappointing that [it’s the] number one show on television [and] I’m not participating,” said Costner, whose wife of 19 years, Christine Baumgartner, filed for divorce in May. “I’ll probably go to court over it.”
Costner’s representative and Paramount’s representative had no comment.

The ‘Yellowstone’ star got exactly what he wanted out of the two-day hearing in Santa Barbara court.
Kevin Costner scored a huge victory in court Friday when the judge ruled in his favour and agreed he should only have to pay his estranged wife $63,209 a month in child support, which is drastically less than what she wanted.
The child support payments will go into effect Friday. After the court ordered the reduction in child support, Christine Baumgartner looked stunned but did not offer any emotion beyond that. Costner seemed happy with the court order. After a quick huddle with his lawyers, Costner — flanked by police — was escorted out of the Santa Barbara County courtroom.
Baumgartner left with her attorneys and when Et asked for comment, she offered none. Amid a bitter battle over how much the “Yellowstone” star should pay in child support, the court temporarily ordered Costner, 68, to pay Baumgartner $129,000 per month.

During a Friday divorce hearing, “Yellowstone” star Kevin Costner said he might be involved in a lawsuit regarding the ongoing dispute over his exit from the Paramount Network hit, according to media reports.
“It’s a little disappointing that the No.1 show on television is not producing,” Costner said during his testimony at a Santa Barbara court. “I’ll probably go to court over it. I’m disappointed in the production.”
Costner’s “Yellowstone” future came up as part of testimony in the divorce hearing about his income, information relevant to dividing assets and what Costner will pay in child support. His estranged wife’s legal team argued that fees from “Yellowstone” should be included as part of his total income — Costner’s team argues that those fees are past income, not future.

Kevin Costner’s shocking exit from the biggest show on linear television, Paramount Network’s Yellowstone, became a focal point in the Oscar winner’s testimony at a Santa Barbara court hearing in his divorce case Friday morning.
In Costner’s first public remarks about his abrupt departure and the series coming to an end with Season 5, the actor indicated on the stand today that he will likely sue over the way things went down.
During his testimony today, Costner openly said he will “probably go to court” over his Yellowstone exit, according to multiple reports and sources. If Costner was to engage in a suit over his Yellowstone departure, the defendants likely would be producers 101 Studios and Paramount Network parent company Paramount Global.
Responding to a further question by his estranged wife Christine Baumgartner’s attorney John Rydell as to whether he was offered to do Season 6, Costner also said it was “complicated,...

Kevin Costner is currently in the middle of a divorce battle with estranged wife Christine Baumgartner, so naturally, there’s a lot of money on the table. After taking the stand to be questioned by his ex-wife’s lawyers, Kevin Costner spilled a few details regarding his exit from Yellowstone, the hit Western series co-created by Taylor Sheridan.
It was announced several months ago that the current incarnation of Yellowstone would be coming to an end as Kevin Costner had decided to exit the series, but that wasn’t meant to be the end. While on the stand, the actor said that he had originally been in negotiations to stick around for seasons five, six, and seven of Yellowstone, with a $12 million payday for each season. However, that changed when season five was split into two parts.
“Somewhere along the line they wanted to change things,” Costner said. “They wanted to do 5A and 5B…...

Kevin Costner‘s estranged wife has denied that a mutual friend is her boyfriend, a notion she refuted on the stand Thursday after the actor made the claim in his most recent court filing.
Christine Baumgartner appeared in a Santa Barbara County courtroom Thursday and testified that the former couple’s mutual friend, Josh Connor, is not her boyfriend. Though Costner never mentioned Connor by name in legal documents he filed Wednesday, the actor insinuated as much when he claimed that “her boyfriend recently gave her $20,000.”
While emotional at times on the stand at a hearing to determine what Costner should pay in child support for their three children, Baumgartner was asked about her and Connor’s July vacation in Hawaii. She was also asked if Connor was her boyfriend and she answered affirmatively, “No.”
Baumgartner, however, did concede — while wiping away tears — that Connor gave her $20,000. Baumgartner also testified...

Costner and his estranged wife are locked in a contentious fight over child support amid their bitter divorce.
Kevin Costner and his estranged wife appeared in a Santa Barbara, California courtroom on Thursday for a hearing over contested child support, and the showdown proved to be an emotional setting.
Christine Baumgartner took the stand and choked back tears when questioning shifted from the “Yellowstone” star’s beach club estate to his expansive ranch in Aspen, Colorado, where the kids have vacationed on numerous occasions and consider the estate a special place. An eyewitness tells Et that Baumgartner “started tearing up and reached for a tissue” when that portion of the questioning began. A 30-second pause ensued before the judge called for a five-minute break.
