- The upcoming segment of Season 5 is shortly approaching.
After a two-year wait, fans of "Yellowstone" in Germany have something to look forward to as well. AXN Black has announced that the second half of Season 5, which is also the final season, will begin airing in November 2024. The exact start date is yet to be disclosed. In the United States, the final episodes are scheduled to air on November 10.
The Exit of Kevin Costner
Viewers will notice a major shift in Season 5B. Lead actor Kevin Costner (69), known for his role in "Bodyguard", will not be reprising his part. This news was officially announced by Costner himself via a video message in mid-June. Prior to this, there were whispers of a disagreement between Costner and the show's creators. It was speculated that Costner was poorly attending set due to other commitments and that his fellow actors did not support him.
Post wrapping up his new western film "Horizon", Costner pondered his future with "Yellowstone". His decision: he would not be available for Season 5B or any subsequent seasons.
Despite Kevin Costner's departure from "Yellowstone" in Season 5B, German viewers can still enjoy the final episodes on AXN Black, starting in November 2024. Regardless of Costner's absence, AXN Black remains dedicated to airing the highly anticipated second half of Season 5, which marks the end of the series.
