Our favorite unapologetic couple returns! Dutton Ranch—the newest Yellowstonespinoff series—premieres in May and will be available to watch on both Paramount+ and Paramount Network! The entire first season will be broadcast on Paramount Network with episodes airing weekly at 8 p.m. ET on Fridays. Read on for more about the series—including the full cast, premiere date and how to watch. Plus, check out first look images and watch the official trailer!
What is ‘Dutton Ranch’ about?
As Beth and Rip fight to build a future together—far from the ghosts of Yellowstone—they collide with brutal new realities and a ruthless rival ranch that will stop at nothing to protect its empire. In South Texas, blood runs deeper, forgiveness is fleeting and the cost of survival might just be your soul.
How many episodes are there in Season 1 of ‘Dutton Ranch’?
There are nine episodes in the first season of Dutton Ranch.
When does ‘Dutton Ranch’ premiere?
Dutton Ranch premieres on Friday, May 15 with the first two episodes.
Where can I watch ‘Dutton Ranch’?
Dutton Ranch will stream on Paramount+. Typically, new episodes drop on the streamer at 3 a.m. ET/12 a.m. PT on the day of release. The show will also air on the Paramount Network on May 15 at 8 p.m. ET, with episodes airing weekly thereafter.
What was the original ‘Yellowstone’ about?
The modern-day Western premiered in 2018 as a kickoff of sorts for the Paramount Network’s rebrand and hit a cultural nerve. Set in Montana, the series follows the trials and tribulations of the Dutton family, who control the largest contiguous cattle ranch in the U.S.
Back on Yellowstone, everything Beth used to do was either for her father or for Rip. Now that her father is gone—as well as the original Dutton Ranch—she is finally making a life for herself and Rip, the man who keeps her grounded and in check. The two took in an orphaned Carter (Finn Little) after his father died at the same hospital where he and Beth met.
The British Reilly embodies Beth so perfectly, it’s hard to believe she is not the unapologetic, unfiltered daughter of John Dutton. Reilly—who was typecast in comedic roles prior to taking on the role of Beth Dutton—has previously starred in the Sherlock Holmesmovies opposite Robert Downey Jr. as Mary, Watson’s (Jude Law) paramour and eventual wife. She also starred in Britannia and the second season of True Detective. She most recently starred in the British crime drama, Under Salt Marsh.
Created by Taylor Sheridan, Yellowstone stars Kevin Costner as patriarch John Dutton, a man trying to keep the ranch in the family as they clash with land developers, a neighboring Indian reservation and several other foes on their quest to protect their legacy.
What time period will ‘Dutton Ranch’ be set in?
Dutton Ranch will take place in the present day after the events in the series finale of Yellowstone.
Who’s in the cast of ‘Dutton Ranch’?
Kelly Reilly as Beth Dutton
Back on Yellowstone, everything Beth used to do was either for her father or for Rip. Now that her father is gone—as well as the original Dutton Ranch—she is finally making a life for herself and Rip, the man who keeps her grounded and in check. The two took in an orphaned Carter (Finn Little) after his father died at the same hospital where he and Beth met.
The British Reilly embodies Beth so perfectly, it’s hard to believe she is not the unapologetic, unfiltered daughter of John Dutton. Reilly—who was typecast in comedic roles prior to taking on the role of Beth Dutton—has previously starred in the Sherlock Holmesmovies opposite Robert Downey Jr. as Mary, Watson’s (Jude Law) paramour and eventual wife. She also starred in Britannia and the second season of True Detective. She most recently starred in the British crime drama, Under Salt Marsh.
Cole Hauser as Rip Wheeler
Rip may not say much but when he does, it’s either romantic or a hard truth. He’s one of the few people who isn’t afraid of Beth. In fact, he seems more amused by her than anything else. He isn’t too happy when Beth brings Carter home, but ultimately takes a shine to him.
Cole Hausercomes from an entertainment family—his dad is actor Wings Hauser, his uncle is actor Erich Hauser and his grandfather is director and producer Dwight Hauser. His mother—Cass Warner—founded the production company Warner Sisters and his great-grandfather was Harry Warner, one of the original founders of Warner Bros. Studios. His credits include the television series Rogue and films like 2 Fast 2 Furious and Olympus Has Fallen.
Finn Little as Carter
What can you say about this little rapscallion? He befriended Beth when the two sat on a hospital bench waiting for progress reports on their respective fathers. When his dad dies and he is left an orphan, Beth eventually takes him in after he is picked up by the cops by telling them she’s his guardian.
Finn Little had a bit of a growth spurt between filming season 4 and 5 of Yellowstone. He’s barely recognizable from the young boy who first started on the show. The teenager now looks a bit like a young Rip Wheeler!
Annette Bening as Beulah Jackson
Annette Bening will play Beulah Jackson, the head of a rival ranching empire (maybe the 6666?). Bening is probably best known for her roles in The American President,Regarding Henry and American Beauty—the latter for which she received an Oscar nomination for Best Actress. She is a five-time Academy Award nominee, as well as a BAFTA and Golden Globe winner.
Ed Harris as Everett McKinney
Harris is probably best known for his roles in Apollo 13, The Truman Show, and as the titular character in Pollock. More recently, he was probably best recognized as the husband to Oscar winner Amy Madigan. Harris’ other credits include Top Gun: Maverick, Westworld, and Snowpiercer.
Morgan Wade as Carol
Country music sensation Morgan Wade joins the cast in a recurring role as Carol, a bartender who works at the local watering hole. This marks her acting debut. Country singer Riley Green recently made his acting debut on another Yellowstone spinoff, Marshals.

Will other Yellowstone characters and actors appear in the spinoff?
No word yet if we’ll see some familiar faces from Yellowstone on the show. Perhaps we’ll get a visit from Jimmy (Jefferson White) who works a ranch in Texas. We’ll see if Kayce (Luke Grimes) will be able to take some time away from his job from the U.S. Marshals or if his job takes him down to Texas to see his favorite sister and perhaps make a stop in Tulsa!
If things don’t work out with the new foreman, we may see some of the Bunkhouse Boys like Ryan (Ian Bohen), Walker (Ryan Bingham), Jake (Jake Ream) pop up looking for work. Perhaps Teeter (Jen Landon) will show up, though it’s unlikely. Landon, who plays Teeter, recently landed a recurring role on Grey’s Anatomy.
