Yellowstone Season 5 Will Be Longest Yet & Split Into Two Parts
Yellowstone's fifth season will be the longest yet for the series, with 14 episodes, and will be split into two parts. Created by Taylor Sheridan, the series stars Kevin Costner, Luke Grimes, Kelly Reilly, Wes Bentley, Gil Birmingham, and Ryan Bingham. The series concluded its fourth season on January 2, 2022, and has produced 39 episodes to date, all of which have been written or co-written by Sheridan.
Yellowstone follows the Dutton family, owners of The Yellowstone, the largest ranch in Montana, as they contend with land developers, a neighboring Indian reservation, and internal family drama. The series falls under the genre of a Neo-Western, using western tropes while being set in the present day, a style also seen in Sheridan's films Hell or High Water and Wind River. The series has seen one spinoff with Yellowstone: 1883, staring Sam Elliott, with two more spinoffs, 6666, and 1932in development.

According to The Wall Street Journal, the fifth season of Yellowstone will consist of 14 episodes split into two batches of seven episodes apiece, the first of which will be airing in the summer of 2022. The interim between seasons four and five make for a very short turnaround for a television show. The premiere will also coincide with another Sheridan series, The Tulsa King, starring Sylvester Stallone. That series will premiere its first two episodes on the Paramount Network before moving over to Paramount+, the same way 1883 premiered. Along with Yellowstone, 1883, 1932, 6666, and The Tulsa King, Sheridan is also working on Land Man, starring Billy Bob Thornton; and the second season of Mayor of Kingston, starring Jeremy Renner, all for Paramount+.
