Yellowstone is famously set to end with season 5 beginning in late 2024.
And now it has been revealed that the cast was potentially going to add a bit more star power before it met its conclusion.
In fact the role was no doubt going to be a great one as it was supposedly going to be the ‘long-lost brother’ of Luke Grimes’ character Kayce Dutton.
Not only would the role have been massive in the Yellowstone universe but it was to be played by a big star in country music.

He explained: ‘We were gonna move to Montana for a full year. We were ready, our family was ready.’
Cory said that his spouse ‘gave me the okay and our kids were like, “okay, cool, we’ll go live in Montana.”
