Taylor Sheridan’s Yellowstone universe keeps expanding. After his hit neo-Western TV show aired its series finale in December 2024, Paramount+ premiered its spin-off, Marshals, in March this year on top of its two existing prequels, 1883 and 1923.

Joining the Sheridanverse is Yellowstone’s latest spin-off, Dutton Ranch, which sees actors Kelly Reilly and Cole Hauser reprise their roles as Beth and Rip. Premiering on May 15, the new show follows Beth Dutton and Rip Wheeler as they leave behind their life in Montana after the sale of Yellowstone Ranch. The couple settle down in South Texas to start a life of their own, but quickly run into problems with a rival ranch.
While fans can expect to see some familiar faces from Yellowstone on the show, the highly anticipated series will also introduce a number of new cast members. Natalie Alyn Lind will star in the show as Oreana, a friend of Beth and Rip’s “adopted” son, Carter (played by Finn Little).

Born in June 2000, Natalie Alyn Lind is the daughter of One Tree Hill actress Barbara Alyn Woods and producer John Lind. She is the oldest of three daughters. With both parents in the industry, Natalie fell into acting quite naturally.
“We were born into it,” she said in a Glamour interview alongside her sisters in 2017. “When I was born, my mom was doing the TV show version of Honey, I Shrunk the Kids. When Emily was born, she was doing a movie. And when Aly was born, she was doing One Tree Hill.”
Natalie made her acting debut in 2006, starring alongside her mum in an episode of One Tree Hill. Her two younger sisters are also actors.
