When “Yellowstone” debuted in 2018, viewers immediately took notice. A deftly plotted family soap set at a massive ranch situated amidst

the beauty of mountainous Montana, “Yellowstone” chronicled the exploits of wealthy rancher John Dutton (played by Oscar-winning actor

and director Kevin Costner) and his feisty family. The show quickly became a ratings juggernaut that resurrected the career of its star, growing so popular that series creator Taylor Sheridan began pumping out spinoffs to expand the “Yellowstone” universe (“1893” and “1923” so far, with more on the horizon).

 

 

After Costner’s much-publicized exit from “Yellowstone,” the second half of the fifth (and possibly final) season is 100% Costner-free. As a result, the focus shifted to his ruthless daughter, Beth Dutton, whose cutthroat ambition and fiery temper have made her arguably the series’ most intriguing character. “I had a reaction, it wasn’t an intellectual one, it was in my body,” actor Kelly Reilly, who plays Beth, told Awards Daily of how she reacted to the role when she read the pilot script for the first time. “I knew immediately this was a storm of a woman who wasn’t just one thing. That resonated with me.”

Beyond “Yellowstone,” Reilly’s extensive roster of screen credits includes the feature film “Sherlock Holmes,” HBO’s critically acclaimed series “True Detective,” and the Agatha Christie whodunit “A Haunting in Venice,” to name just a few. While viewers have become captivated by Beth, Reilly herself has proven to be an intensely private person with a tendency to keep her personal life close to the vest. That said, she has occasionally opened up about herself, revealing some fascinating details. To find out more, read on to discover what “Yellowstone” actor Kelly Reilly is really like when the cameras aren’t rolling.

Taylor Sheridan, known for his work in the world of film and television, has established himself as one of the most influential screenwriters today. After writing scripts for acclaimed films like Sicario and Hell or High Water, his success was solidified with the series Yellowstone, which has led to numerous spin-offs and new series. To date, Sheridan has produced six series in just seven years, including titles like Tulsa King and Special Ops: Lioness. His most recent project, Landman: A Raw Business, has generated both interest and controversy.

Landman has been criticized for its negative portrayal of renewable energy and for perpetuating harmful stereotypes about women. However, the audience has responded positively, turning the series into a resounding success with a third season already confirmed. Despite the criticism, Sheridan has managed to capture the audience’s attention, highlighting his ability to connect with viewers.

Billy Bob Thornton, star of Landman, has shared his perspective on the controversies surrounding the series. According to him, the narrative reflects the reality of those working in the oil industry and how their lives are interconnected with the world of renewable energy. “The series simply shows what the people involved in this business are like,” Thornton commented, defending the authenticity of the characters and the plots presented.

Despite the commercial success, Thornton has also expressed his disinterest in awards, emphasizing that what really matters is personal satisfaction and the impact of his work. “Now I’m too old to worry about things like that,” he stated, making it clear that his priority is art over recognition. Approaching 70 years old, the actor and screenwriter seems to have a clear vision of his career and his legacy in the entertainment industry.
