Filming for Season 5 Part 2 of Yellowstone is set to begin after the Screen Actors Guild (SAG-AFTRA) strike ends. The upcoming season will feature many familiar characters from previous seasons. Serving as the final installment of the popular Western drama, Season 5 Part 2 will bring closure to various character arcs and storylines. Yellowstone has been one of the most successful TV shows in recent years. Even reruns of Season 1 on CBS garnered an impressive viewership of 4 to 5 million per episode. The show's success can be attributed to its Western themes, political undertones, and talented cast.

Kevin Costner's character, John Dutton, is one of the most important characters on the show. However, due to a dispute between Costner and series creator Taylor Sheridan, it remains unclear how much he will appear in Season 5 Part 2. Costner's character, John Dutton, who is now the governor of Montana, is currently at odds with his adopted son, Jamie Dutton. Kelly Reilly portrays Beth Dutton, John's daughter, known for her fierce loyalty and willingness to do anything to protect her family and the Dutton Ranch. In Season 5 Part 2, Beth will stand by her father as they strategize on how to handle Jamie's call for John's impeachment. Luke Grimes plays Kayce Dutton, the most level-headed member of the Dutton family who had to find a balance between his responsibilities on the ranch and his personal life. Kayce recently gave up his badge as a livestock commissioner to spend more time with his family. Wes Bentley portrays the adopted son of John Dutton, Jamie Dutton.

After discovering his biological father and being manipulated by Market Equities, Jamie turns against his family and becomes one of the show's main antagonists. Cole Hauser's character, Rip Wheeler, quickly became a fan favorite. Rip's loyalty to John and the ranch is unwavering, and he will lead a group of cowboys to Texas in Season 5 Part 2 to save the cattle from a disease outbreak.

Kelsey Asbille portrays Monica Dutton, Kayce's wife, who has endured numerous hardships throughout the series. In Season 5 Part 2, Monica will do whatever it takes to protect her son, Tate. Other characters expected to appear in Season 5 Part 2 include Thomas Rainwater (Gil Birmingham), Jimmy Hurdstrom (Jefferson White), Emily (Kathryn Kelly), Lloyd Pierce (Forrie J. Smith), Colby Mayfield (Denim Richards), Teeter (Jen Landon), Walker (Ryan Bingham), Ryan (Ian Bohen), Lynelle Perry (Wendy Moniz), Summer Higgins (Piper Perabo), Caroline Warner (Jacki Weaver), Ellis Steele (John Emmet Tracy), Sarah Atwood (Dawn Olivieri), and Clara Brewer (Lilli Kay). Each character will play a crucial role in the final chapters of the show. Yellowstone is currently available to stream on Peacock.
