00:00Yellowstone has officially resumed production on Season 5.
00:04Paramount Network announced Monday that filming on the Western Hits' final Season 5 episodes is now underway in Montana.
00:11While the start of production was later than previously thought,
00:14MTV Entertainment Studios and 101 Studios still expect the drama to return in November, as previously announced last year.
00:21Monday's announcement did not include an update on the show's cast,
00:24or whether star Kevin Costner will make an appearance in the final episodes that are expected to wrap the series.
00:30Yellowstone aired its most recent episode more than a year ago, back in January 2023,
00:35amid Paramount Network deciding to split the season into two parts.
00:38Talks of infighting over scheduling and script delays between Costner and showrunner Taylor Sheridan ensued for many months,
00:45with Costner also focusing on his upcoming Western epic Horizon, An American Saga.
00:49Costner recently said he would like to be able to return to the show to finish his character.
00:53Here's what he told Entertainment Tonight.
00:55Maybe this will circle back to me. If it does, then I feel really comfortable with it.
00:59I'd love to do it.
01:01However, if Costner's not involved at this stage, with scripts complete and filming underway,
01:06it's starting to seem less likely that he will be.
01:08An official episode count also has yet to be revealed by the network.
01:11Sheridan has previously said he might make more than the previously reported six final episodes.
