Kevin Costner Hates 'Yellowstone' and Has Been Waiting (for His Character) to Die
Briefly

Since 2018, Yellowstone has evolved into a prominent family drama, often likened to 'Succession,' but with a twist of crime set against Montana's backdrop.
Kevin Costner's role as John Dutton has garnered him over $1 million per episode, despite ongoing disputes with creator Taylor Sheridan and Paramount Network.
Reports from 2023 suggest that while Costner wanted more creative control, conflicts emerged over shooting schedules, with some outlets claiming he demanded narrow windows.
In the trailer for the second half of Season 5, Costner’s presence is minimal, with just five seconds of screen time, raising questions about his involvement.
