Paramount has dropped the full official trailer for the “Yellowstone” spinoff “Dutton Ranch.”
In the trailer, Beth (Kelly Reilly) and Rip (Cole Hauser) are settling into life in their new ranch in Texas when Rip uncovers a dead body. This seems to put them into direct conflict with fellow rancher Beulah Jackson (Annette Bening), who will stop at nothing to protect what her family has built.
The series will debut with its first two episodes on May 15 on Paramount+ and at 8 p.m. ET/PT on Paramount Network, followed by one new episode weekly thereafter. The first season consists of nine episodes.
Although the ending of “Yellowstone” set up Beth and Rip buying a ranch in Dillon, Montana, “Dutton Ranch” is set in South Texas. The official logline for the show states, “As Beth and Rip fight to build a future together – far from the ghosts of Yellowstone – they collide with brutal new realities and a ruthless rival ranch that will stop at nothing to protect its empire. In South Texas, blood runs deeper, forgiveness is fleeting, and the cost of survival might just be your soul.”
The cast of Season 1 also includes Finn Little (who played Carter in the original show), Juan Pablo Raba, Jai Courtney, J.R. Villarreal, Marc Menchaca, Natalie Alyn Lind, and Ed Harris and Bening.
“Dutton Ranch” is based on characters created by Taylor Sheridan and John Linson. Chad Feehan serves as creator, executive producer, and showrunner, though he will not return for Season 2. Sheridan and Linson also executive produce along with David C. Glasser, Art Linson, Ron Burkle, David Hutkin, Bob Yari, Christina Alexandra Voros, Michael Friedman, Hauser, Reilly, and Keith Cox. In addition to executive producing, Voros also directed multiple episodes this season, including the premiere and the season finale. Greg Yaitanes, Jessica Lowrey, and Phil Abraham also served as directors this season. Paramount Television and 101 Studios produce.
