Kevin Costner as John Dutton III in Yellowstone.

Even before it was announced that Kevin Costner would exit Yellowstone ahead of season 5, part 2, many speculated that his character, John Dutton III, would die before the show's ending, and Taylor Sheridan all but confirmed that. The Paramount Network neo-Western drama series, created by Sheridan and John Linson, was originally set to end with season 5, part 2, without Costner's involvement. Reports claim that a possible season 6 of Yellowstone may be in the works.

Taylor Sheridan's Plan For Kevin Costner's Absence Makes John Dutton's Death More Likely John Dutton's Absence Would Have Happened Regardless Of Kevin Costner's Exit Close While speaking with Entertainment Weekly, Kelly Reilly, who plays Beth Dutton in Yellowstone, revealed that Taylor Sheridan's plans always included John Dutton's absence. Even before Kevin Costner left Yellowstone, the showrunner knew the neo-Western drama's ending lacked John Dutton.

If Sheridan was planning for Costner's character to be absent towards Yellowstone's ending, it wouldn't make sense if that was because he moved away. John Dutton up and leaving the ranch is a lazy and hasty excuse Sheridan would make if he was under pressure to change the story. However, that doesn't seem to be the case. Killing John Dutton is a big swing that Sheridan could have been building up to for years, while the character moving away is hard to imagine.
