Yellowstone Season 5 Release Date
The series has not confirmed its premiere date, but according to a Deadline report, Taylor Sheridan has stated that filming for Yellowstone Season 5 will begin in May 2022.
So there is hope among fans that the series will be able to premiere much sooner than expected. We’ll predict sometime in the fall of 2022.
Moreover, the fans should be aware that the series was postponed due to the worldwide pandemic, and production for Season 4 was also delayed, so details about the season launch take a little time.
On the bright side! According to the statement made by the Paramount Network in mid-February, it was later announced that Yellowstone Season 5 would air in two installments with a total of 14 episodes. So fans have to be patient and wait for the next adventure till it’s launched.
The official premise of the series:
According to Wikipedia, the series follows the Dutton family, owners of the largest ranch in Montana, the Yellowstone Dutton Ranch, commonly called “the Yellowstone.” The plot revolves around family drama at the ranch and the bordering Broken Rock Indian Reservation, national park, and developers.
Yellowstone Season 5 Plot
Some of the lingering questions that could be addressed in the next season are highlighted below:
The plot about Jamie Dutton’s political career effectively ended when he was caught in a compromising position with Beth. Beth may serve as her father’s campaign manager in his run for governor. Will Beth keep conspiring against Caroline Warner and Market Equities? Will Warner follow through on her threats against Beth and the Dutton property?
Fans are curious to know if Carter re-establish Beth’s trust. Will Beth give in and let him call her “Momma”? Will Walker leave the ranch for good after Mia and go next season? Could Bingham appear in the 6666 spin-off series?
Hopefully, we’ll get answers to all these questions and more on the next season of Yellowstone.
How many episodes will be there in Yellowstone Season 5?
As mentioned above, Yellowstone Season 5 will consist of 14 episodes, split into two parts. As seen in seasons 2-4, each had ten episodes, and Season 1 had nine episodes. As a result, fans will have a lot to look forward to this season, which will have the most episodes of any season thus far.
