A Yellowstone spinoff focused on the youngest of John Dutton’s three sons is in the works. Multiple media outlets have shared a rough outline of what the show will look like.
Luke Grimes has reportedly agreed to star in the series.
- On Yellowstone, Grimes played Kayce Dutton, youngest son to Kevin Costner’s John Dutton.
- His on-screen wife, Monica, was played by Kelsey Asbille, and their son Tate was played by Brecken Merrill.
- This new show would rely heavily on his background as a Navy SEAL, Deadline shares.

This new show would air on CBS and is described as a procedural. At the end of Yellowstone, Kayce (Grimes) says he’s going to turn in his badge as Livestock Commissioner, but it’s not clear if that ever happens. The weight of the job haunted him throughout the series, but — without spoiling anything — he seemed to find some peace with his decisions by the end of Season 5.
Add this new, still untitled show to a long list of confirmed or rumored Yellowstone spinoffs.
Aside from those already airing (1883, 1923), the show with the firmest footing is The Madison, starring Michelle Pfeiffer. Filming for that show took place in late 2024 and as Yellowstone wrapped, producers talked openly about transitioning.
There is also a rumored show starring Kelly Reilly and Cole Hauser, who played Beth Dutton and Rip Wheeler on Yellowstone, although no firm details have been announced.
Additionally, there have been reports about a prequel called 1944 and rumors about a similarly themed show set to take place on the 6666 Ranch in Texas.
Puck was first to forward this latest show possibility. MTV Entertainment Studios is behind the project — they also back Yellowstone and 1923, which is currently in Season 2 on Paramount+

Cole Hauser doesn’t just play a rancher on Yellowstone, he’s lived that life off-screen, too. The actor’s 5-bedroom-6-bathroom, 5,402-square-foot rural home on a very private, double-gated three-acre parcel of land includes the lavish 4-bedroom, 4-bathroom main residence, as well as a guest house and a separate studio apartment. The main house runs completely on solar power and comes with a 3-car garage, with easy transitions between indoor and outdoor living spaces, and the exterior of the property includes a pool area and a hot tub, as well as fenced-in horse corrals.
