Kevin
Costner

is
weighing
in
on
the
fate
of
his



Yellowstone

character.

The


Oscar

winner—who
played
John
Dutton
III
for
over
four
years
on

Paramount
drama—shared
his
thoughts
on
his


character’s
controversial
death

after
the
tragedy
was
revealed
on
the
drama’s
Nov.
10
episode.

And
Costner—who


exited
the
series

due
to
scheduling
conflicts
after
part
one
of
season
five
aired
its
final
episode
in
January
2023,
one
episode
before

light
in
the
storyline—was
somewhat
surprised
by
the
tragic
turn
of
events.

“I’m
going
to
be
perfectly
honest.
I
didn’t
know
it
was
actually
airing
last
night,”
he
said
on
the
Nov.
11
of
SiriusXM’s



The
Michael
Smerconish
Program.
“That’s
a
swear
to
god
moment.
I’ve
been
seeing
ads
with
my
face
all
over
the
place
and
I’m
thinking,
‘Gee,
I’m
not
in
that
one.’
But
I
didn’t
realize
yesterday
was
the
thing.”
