In an exclusive interview with Us, Wes Bentley looked back at his time on ‘Yellowstone’
In an exclusive interview with Us Weekly, Bentley, 46, dished on the perks and pitfalls of stepping into the shoes of the complicated Yellowstone character. “It was really satisfying to play no spine, weakness and emptiness,” he told Us while promoting part two of the series’ fifth season. “It's been a great challenge and one that I was really happy to try and meet — and I hope I did meet — but all that said, it is a weight that will be nice to let go of one day.
“It infiltrated my life over seven years and the depths of which I went with Jamie — and the amount of stuff that he has piled up in that baggage — it weighed heavy,” Bentley admitted. “We all had to talk together, ‘like, okay, I think this is the show, guys,’ and this and that,” the dad of two — who shares son Charles and daughter Brooklyn with wife Jacqui Swedberg — shared. “It really did have a deep impact in my personal life, and that's been challenging.”
“It's not like the other scenes, where it's all emotional and yelling and screaming. It's just real simple, like gut punch and also an answer to a question he's always had but didn't know he had,” he told Us. “That day playing felt really ethereal — I was really in a head-y, glossy state, just trying to fathom what that must be .”Costner’s departure from the show leaves Jamie navigating uncharted territory in the highly anticipated return of Yellowstone.
