"I Sure Hope It's Worth It": Yellowstone Creator Breaks Silence On Kevin Costner's Season 5 Exit

Yellowstone creator Taylor Sheridan breaks his silence on Kevin Costner leaving the hit Paramount+ show to focus on directing his own Western epic.

As viewers eagerly await news on when Yellowstone season 5 will finally wrap up, the show's creator Sheridan has broken his silence on Costner's decision to leave the series, telling THR that he hopes the John Dutton actor succeeds in crafting his own four-part epic Western movie Horizon:

"My opinion of Kevin as an actor hasn't altered. His creation of John Dutton is symbolic and powerful . and I've never had an issue with Kevin that he and I couldn't work out on the phone. But once lawyers get involved, then people don't get to talk to each other and start saying things that aren't true and attempt to shift blame based on how the press or public seem to be reacting. He took a lot of this on the chin and I don't know that anyone deserves it. His movie seems to be a great priority to him and he wants to shift focus. I sure hope [the movie is] worth it - and that it's a good one.
