A new trailer has dropped for a highly anticipated Yellowstone sequel/spin-off series set in 2026, with Beth Dutton (Kelly Reilly) and Rip Wheeler (Cole Hauser) stepping into the lead roles.
The project, widely referred to as The Dutton Ranch (or Dutton Ranch), picks up after the main Yellowstone series, focusing on Beth and Rip building a new life far from Montana’s high-stakes battles. The trailer highlights their partnership as a real family unit (including Carter), while facing tough times, stiff competition, and the challenge of preserving their 7,000-acre ranch legacy.
Key Trailer Highlights
- Beth & Rip at the Center: The footage emphasizes Beth’s fierce intelligence and Rip’s unwavering loyalty. They are shown riding horseback, sharing quiet moments, and confronting threats to their land and future.
- Tone & Themes: Darker, more intimate, and character-driven than the original—focusing on survival, family bonds, legacy, and starting over in a new environment (with hints of Texas or a fresh ranch setting).
- Additional Cast Tease: Some trailers include Ed Harris in a major role (likely a new ally or antagonist), adding depth and mature tension.
- Release Outlook: Officially slated for 2026 on Paramount+ (with potential Paramount Network airing). No exact premiere date yet, but speculation points to summer or fall 2026. A full trailer drop is expected around August 2026 in some reports.
This follows the main Yellowstone finale and fits into Taylor Sheridan’s expanding universe (including Marshals with Kayce Dutton, premiering March 2026 on CBS/Paramount+).
The trailer has ignited massive fan excitement, with many calling it the most emotionally charged and authentic continuation yet—Beth and Rip finally get the spotlight they deserve after years of supporting the Dutton family saga.
If you’re a Yellowstone fan, this looks like the bold, character-focused next chapter we’ve been waiting for—loyalty, land, and legacy ride on. Stay tuned to Paramount+ and official channels for the premiere date announcement.
