Who are all these new people on the latest Yellowstone series? As Beth and Rip try to start fresh, they run into a family that rivals their own in more ways than one. Here’s what you need to know about the cast and characters on Dutton Ranch.
Like Marshals, this is a spin-off that takes a handful of Yellowstone characters and continues their story. But while the former was about a new vocation, this one is all about a new location. Beth Dutton and her husband Rip Wheeler have moved their small family to Texas. Unsurprisingly, they don’t have the same kind of pull they had in Montana. The families in the Lonestar State are established and tight-knit.
