Forget Christmas, because Taylor Sheridan is making November feel like the ultimate holiday for fans of the Yellowstone universe! Just as the flagship Yellowstone series concluded its epic run, Paramount+ is DOUBLING DOWN on the Dutton dynasty with an ambitious fall lineup. And leading the charge, poised to set screens ablaze, is the long-awaited, fan-demanded spinoff centered on the volatile, unforgettable romance of Beth Dutton (played by the incomparable Kelly Reilly) and Rip Wheeler (the ruggedly charismatic Cole Hauser)!
In a revelation that’s sending shockwaves through the streaming world, Paramount Global’s Q1 2025 earnings call OFFICIALLY confirmed that the Beth and Rip Yellowstone spinoff will premiere globally on Paramount+ this November! This isn’t a rumor; it’s a corporate declaration of war on your free time, promising an immediate and brutal return to the heart of the modern Western.
THE TITLE BOMBSHELL & PARAMOUNT’S SHOCKING SLIP-UP!
While the show’s actual title has been shrouded in mystery—with rumors, now seemingly debunked by Cole Hauser himself, pointing to ‘Dutton Ranch’—Paramount Global added an unexpected twist during their earnings call. “Now turning to Yellowstone, the series remains the number one start driver and the number one engagement driver for us internationally. And the momentum will continue as we expand the franchise with three new series, starting with the Dutton Ranch, which will premiere globally in Q4,” Paramount Global executives stated during the call. And later: “Last year’s smash hit, Landman returns in November plus the all new Yellowstone franchise extensions, the Dutton Ranch.”
Yes, you read that right! Despite Hauser’s clear denial, Paramount Global itself seemed to slip up, twice referring to the show as “the Dutton Ranch” during the investor call! This fascinating discrepancy adds a layer of insider intrigue that will undoubtedly fuel fan speculation and delight. Regardless of its eventual official title, this new series is set to air alongside the second season of Landman, the Billy Bob Thornton oil boom drama that’s already become one of Sheridan’s most-watched series. It had been previously confirmed Landman Season 2 would drop in November, and now, it’s official: Beth and Rip are joining the party, making November the ultimate Sheridan-verse takeover!
THE HEART OF THE RANCH: What’s Next For Our Power Couple?
Details about the Beth and Rip series are still under tight wraps, but we do know the show will pick up where Yellowstone Season 5 tragically left off. In those explosive final episodes, Beth (Kelly Reilly) and Rip (Cole Hauser) made a pivotal move to a new ranch in Dillon, Montana. Their intention: to carve out a fresh start, while still carrying the immense weight of every brutal secret and consequence from the Dutton Ranch’s chaotic legacy.
Rip had hinted at a new chapter of ranching in Montana, yearning for a simpler, yet still demanding, life. Meanwhile, Beth seemed primed to unleash her ruthless business acumen in new, unexpected ways. This setup promises a more personal, perhaps even lower-scale—though make no mistake, no less dramatically intense—story for the spinoff. It will focus squarely on the power couple’s relentless pursuit of building their own legacy, far from the suffocating chaos of John Dutton’s crumbling empire. The shift promises a deeper dive into their unbreakable bond, tested by new landscapes and new threats.
THE RACE AGAINST TIME: Can They REALLY Pull It Off?!
Here’s the kicker, and the source of immense fan anxiety: While Landman Season 2 is reportedly well into production and expected to wrap soon, the Beth and Rip series hasn’t had nearly as much public progress. With just a few short months until its confirmed November premiere, pulling off a high-quality, full-length series might sound incredibly ambitious, even for the Sheridan machine.
The clock is ticking, and expectations are sky-high. Can Taylor Sheridan and his team deliver a masterpiece under such intense pressure? Will Kelly Reilly and Cole Hauser be able to film and produce a series worthy of the Yellowstone legacy in such a tight window? The ambitious timeline only adds to the feverish anticipation and inherent drama surrounding this colossal release.
Get ready, Yellowstone faithful, because November is about to redefine your fall viewing schedule. Whether it’s called ‘Dutton Ranch’ or something else entirely, the return of Beth and Rip is confirmed, official, and barreling towards us. The wait is almost over, and the new era of the Dutton universe is about to begin!
