Spoiler Alert !!!
This article contains spoilers for Yellowstone 5B.
Kelly Reilly sent the Yellowstone fandom into a frenzy when she spilled the beans about eyeing a spin-off with Taylor Sheridan. Yep, Beth Dutton herself hinted at a crazy new chapter—but here’s the kicker: it might ruffle a few fans’ feathers. Imagine taking all that Dutton drama and flipping it on its head.
Reilly’s sly admission felt like a spark ready to ignite, teasing twists that could either thrill or tick off the die-hards. Was she just stirring the pot, or are we in for a Sheridan-sized curveball? Either way, the buzz was loud—and the fandom? Lowkey panicking.
Kelly Reilly Teases Potential Beth Dutton Spin-Off With Taylor Sheridan
Kelly Reilly isn’t ready to hang up Beth Dutton’s sharp tongue and fiery demeanor just yet. The Yellowstone star shared her interest in exploring more of Beth’s story—if Taylor Sheridan has the right idea. Reilly teased, “Wouldn’t it be fun to watch Beth go to therapy?” Uh, not really. Fans love Beth for her chaos, not her clarity. Keen on exploring her character’s next chapter, the actress asserted (via The Mirror):
I loved this season. There were some really different territories to explore, so I’m not clinging to her. I’m happy to put her back in her padlocked box.
With Yellowstone’s fifth and final season in full swing, Beth is still neck-deep in drama. The tenth episode, The Apocalypse of Change, saw her accusing Jamie (Wes Bentley) of playing a hand in their father John’s death. Beth’s rage boiled over as she slapped Jamie and confronted Sarah Atwood (Dawn Olivieri), throttling her for confirmation. The feud? Red-hot.
But where does Beth go after avenging John’s death? Reilly hinted at the intrigue of seeing Beth “in peace.” However, peace and Beth Dutton don’t exactly mix. Therapy sessions and introspection feel like a stretch for a character built on venom and vengeance. Speaking to Town and Country, she said:
I am definitely interested in Beth, and who she is after some things have happened. Who is she in peace? As an actor you’re like, ‘Ooh, let me at that’ Wouldn’t it be fun to watch Beth go to therapy?
As Yellowstone races toward its finale, with Kevin Costner exiting as John Dutton, the Paramount franchise isn’t slowing down. Spin-offs like 1883 and 1923 have proven the Dutton legacy has legs. Could Beth’s firepower carry a new chapter? Reilly seems game, but Sheridan would have to tread carefully—fans won’t settle for a tame version of their beloved anti-hero.
For now, Beth’s fate hangs in the balance. Will she and Kayce (Luke Grimes) finish Jamie off for good? Or does the ever-scheming Jamie have a redemption arc left in him? Whatever happens, Kelly Reilly’s interest in Beth’s future keeps the Yellowstone buzz alive.

Kelly Reilly sparked major buzz when she hinted at Beth Dutton’s future in Yellowstone. With Yellowstone reportedly wrapping up after Season 5, the actress teases an end to the world fans know. In a BBC interview, Reilly teased,
Does it mean it’s the end of me playing her? Maybe, maybe not. We don’t know yet is the honest answer.
With Kevin Costner exiting after Season 5, there’s talk of Yellowstone continuing without him—leaving Reilly to possibly lead the charge. While she admitted she’d “love” to reprise Beth in a new chapter, she’s quick to note, “We don’t know yet.” The future of the Dutton saga? Still up in the air.
Yellowstone is available to watch on Peacock & Apple TV.
