In a recent interview withEW, Bentley reveals thatYellowstoneseason 5, part 2, picks up “soon after” the ending of part 1, which saw Jamie and Beth essentially declare war on each other. As for Jamie’s headspace heading into the new batch of episodes, the actor teases that his character is out for blood. Check out Bentley’s comments below:
“Jamie’s the most raw he’s ever been and the most vulnerable. He’s the angriest he’s ever been.”
What Bentley’s Update Means For Yellowstone Season 5 Part 2
How His Comments Fit Into What We Know About The Sheridan Show’s Return
TheYellowstoneseason 5 part 1 ending leaves viewers hanging, teasing a larger conflict to come. After Jamie makes clear his desire to impeach John (Kevin Costner), which leads to a threat from Beth, Bentley’s character is seemingly looking into ways to have her killed. Beth raises the possibility of killing Jamie to John, suggesting that season 5, part 2, may end with one of them dead.

Beth Dutton may think she has all the power in her and her brother Jamie’s relationship, but Beth’s pettiness is only getting in her own way.
Of course, news outside of the show has provided some hints about how this conflict will be resolved. It’s now been confirmed thatCostner will not be returning as Johnfor season 5, part 2. What’s more, it’s also been reported thatYellowstoneseason 6 is a possibility, with a story that will focus on Beth and Rip Wheeler (Cole Hauser). If true, this would seemingly mean that bothBeth and Rip are safe from whatever Dutton family battle is to come.
Our Take On Yellowstone Season 5 Part 2’s New Developments
The Show Could Be Going Out On A High Note
The fact that the potentially final batch ofYellowstoneepisodes is picking up right after the end of part 1 is probably the best move for the show, as any kind of time jump would probably take some of the wind out of the Jamie and Beth feud. Seeing a new side of Jamie, as well, one that is seemingly more angry and violent, could also make for a climactic way to end his story, if not the show at large.
Though nothing has been confirmed about the show’s future beyond season 5, part 2, the upcoming episodes could feature some majorYellowstone characterdeaths.It’s entirely possible that Wes won’t be making it out of the season alive, as it very much seems like the possibility of peace between him and Beth has passed. Many questions still remain aboutYellowstoneseason 5, part 2, but viewers should evidently expect an exciting batch of episodes.
