Beth & Rip’s New Show Title Proves Yellowstone Season 6 Is Here—Just Under a New Name

BBG News

As a devoted film enthusiast, I’m thrilled to share that the spinoff title for Beth (Kelly Reilly) and Rip’s (Cole Hauser) characters has been officially announced! This exciting news indicates that the new series will strive to mirror the original feel of Yellowstone during its sixth season.

Although Yellowstone has reigned supreme on television for an impressive five seasons, executive producer Taylor Sheridan brought his original series to a close in December 2024. In the fifth season of Yellowstone, we bid farewell to John Dutton III following Kevin Costner’s departure, which ultimately led to the discontinuation of the main series.

However, before the finale aired, a groundbreaking casting deal was announced, revealing that Reilly and Hauser would reprise their roles as Beth Dutton and Rip Wheeler in an offshoot, keeping the Yellowstone legacy alive!

In a fresh development, Taylor Sheridan is crafting another contemporary tale similar to “Yellowstone,” this time featuring Michelle Pfeiffer as Stacy Clyburn in the upcoming series called “The Madison“. Details about the storyline are scarce at the moment. Furthermore, the Yellowstone universe has hinted at a spinoff titled “6666” that will explore life on a ranch in Texas. Additionally, Sheridan is planning to introduce another Dutton family prequel with his teased “1944“, which may continue from where the second season finale of “1923” left off, but set 20 years later. Out of all the upcoming Yellowstone shows, including Kayce Dutton’s (Luke Grimes), the series featuring Beth and Rip will bear the closest resemblance to “Yellowstone”.

Beth & Rip’s Spinoff Title Makes It Look Even More Like Yellowstone’s Successor

Beth Dutton And Rip Wheeler’s Show Is Called Dutton Ranch

It was widely expected that Beth and Rip would take on lead roles for Yellowstone if it carried on. There had been much discussion about Kelly Reilly and Cole Hauser potentially replacing Kevin Costner as the main characters in the neo-Western genre, but this was before their spinoff was announced. However, when Taylor Sheridan chose to create a new series for Beth and Rip’s continuation, it was revealed that their spinoff would bear a resemblance to the original, with its title as evidence. A report from Bloomberg stated that the title of Beth and Rip’s spinoff is expected to be Dutton Ranch. It seems likely that this name comes from the couple’s new ranch in Dillon, which was briefly shown in Yellowstone season 5’s finale.

The name seems recognizable because John’s initial cattle ranch was known as the Yellowstone Dutton Ranch. By omitting “Yellowstone” but keeping “Dutton Ranch,” it becomes evident that Beth and Rip aren’t trying to conceal their ties to the largest continuous ranch in the U.S. Sheridan emphasizes the strong link between Beth and Rip’s spinoff and Yellowstone. Dutton Ranch might be the most effective way for Sheridan to reference the original show and property without directly replicating it, given that the Dutton-Wheeler land won’t border Yellowstone National Park, which was crucial in naming the original ranch and series.

How Beth & Rip’s Spinoff Is Already Continuing Yellowstone’s Story

Beth And Rip Are Vital To Yellowstone’s Story

The name “Dutton Ranch” hints that the series featuring Beth and Rip will predominantly revolve around ranching, mirroring its original concept. Contrastingly, Kayce Dutton’s spinoff titled “Yellowstone“, is said to be a procedural show for CBS, likely emphasizing police work or investigations. Despite the change, it’s clear that Taylor Sheridan will blend aspects from “Yellowstone” into “Dutton Ranch“. Furthermore, with Beth and Rip at its helm, “Dutton Ranch” continues the narrative started by “Yellowstone“.

In the continuation of the series, with Beth and Rip as the main characters instead of Kevin Costner, it would essentially feel like a natural progression or extension of the storyline from Yellowstone. As teased by creator Taylor Sheridan, we know that at the end of Yellowstone, Beth and Rip’s new operation will be located 40 miles west of Dillon, Montana. This may involve some characters from Yellowstone‘s fifth season, and it could also delve into other stories from the original series, such as the future of the Yellowstone Ranch cowboys if they end up working at the Dutton Ranch.

How Beth & Rip’s Spinoff Can Still Differentiate Itself From Yellowstone

Beth And Rip’s Story Ought To Be Original

Despite some changes, as seen in Yellowstone season 5 part 2 without Kevin Costner, Beth and Rip’s upcoming series will maintain a similar feel. A report from Puck hinted that they might be casting a character reminiscent of Kevin Costner, indicating that Taylor Sheridan is aiming to replicate Yellowstone’s success. With many connections to the original series, Beth and Rip’s story can set itself apart by showcasing the finesse typical of Sheridan’s other spinoffs.

Taylor Sheridan’s subsequent shows following Yellowstone exhibit distinct maturity and tone. Unlike the original, which delves into a specific time period, the spin-off featuring Beth and Rip could seem more like a prequel to Yellowstone than its continuation. Some viewers have noted that while Yellowstone is an engaging series, it bears resemblance to soap operas, and a new show presents a chance to distance itself from this perception, which might not be favorable for the franchise. Although Beth is known for her dramatic flair, Reilly and Hauser could take their show to heights above that of Yellowstone.
