Yellowstone: teaser

Jacki Weaver joins the cast of Season 4 of Kevin Costner drama.

Stan has released the a teaser for the fourth season of US drama Yellowstone starring Kevin Costner.

Jacki Weaver will also be joining the cast as Caroline Warner, CEO of Market Equities.

Stan confirms it will screen same day as the USA in Spring, but no date is yet announced.

Led by Academy Award® & Emmy® winner Kevin Costner, Yellowstone was one of the most-watched series on US cable last year. Season three added Josh Holloway (Lost) to an all-star cast that included Luke Grimes (Fifty Shades franchise), Kelly Reilly (True Detective), Wes Bentley (American Horror Story), Cole Hauser (Rogue), Kelsey Asbille (Wind River), Brecken Merrill, Jefferson White (House of Cards), Forrie Smith (Better Call Saul), Denim Richards (Good Trouble) and Gil Birmingham (Animal Kingdom). Additional season three newcomers included: Eden Brolin (Beyond), Hassie Harrison (Tacoma FD) and Jennifer Landon (The Front Runner).

In season four, Jacki Weaver (Stan Original Series Bloom, Silver Linings Playbook) will portray Caroline Warner; CEO of Market Equities. Also joining for the fourth season are series newcomers: Piper Perabo (Covert Affairs, Coyote Ugly) who will portray Summer Higgins, an outside protestor from Portland who is against the state funded police force that protects industrialised farming and the killing of animals; Kathryn Kelly (Nashville, Dolly Parton’s Heartstrings) who will portray Emily, a vet tech who soon strikes up a relationship with the new cowboy; and Finn Little (Storm Boy, Angel of Mine) who will portray Carter; a young boy reminiscent of a young Rip, with Beth deciding the ranch is the best place to teach him a lesson on how to be a man.

Weaver, Perabo and Kelly will appear in recurring roles with Little signed on as a series regular. Additionally, Will Patton has been upped to series regular for this season.

Yellowstone chronicles the Dutton family, led by John Dutton played by world-renowned actor and Oscar winner Kevin Costner. Dutton controls the largest contiguous cattle ranch in the United States. Amid shifting alliances, unsolved murders, open wounds, and hard-earned respect – the ranch is in constant conflict with those it borders – an expanding town, an Indian reservation, and America’s first national park.

Co-created by Taylor Sheridan (Sicario) and John Linson (Sons of Anarchy), Yellowstone’s executive producers include John Linson, Art Linson, Taylor Sheridan, Kevin Costner, David C. Glasser, Bob Yari and Stephen Kay.

  1. I liked the first season and part of the second season of Yellowstone but with season three Yellowstone was showing signs of losing it’s way wasting the talents of support stars like (Colony’s) Josh Holloway who like Kelly Reilly is now caught in a meandering storyline drifting towards becoming a typical formulaic ‘Dallas’ soap aimed at producing extended seasons. I suspect that only Kevin Costner keeps the interest factor going for most viewers as he continues going through the motions as John Dutton, but as a Western Yellowstone will need to quicken the pace and up the ante, the early gunfights, Indian disputes, sociopath behaviour and gratuitous sexual interludes do need a revival.

  2. This show has a couple of connections to the TV westerns of the 1960s…Jennifer Landon is the daughter of Michael Landon (Joe Cartwright, “Bonanza”); Rudy Ramos who plays Felix Long appeared in the TV series “The High Chaparral”. Also Eden Brolin is the daughter of Josh Brolin (“The Young Riders”) and granddaughter of James Brolin, both of whom appeared in a few westerns.
