Alright, everyone, assemble. Kevin Costner, the movie industry’s favorite cowboy, recently revealed some shocking news. The famous Oscar winner has formally announced his resignation from the popular series Yellowstone, in a narrative twist reminiscent of a soap opera. And oh, how delicately he dropped hints, like a bull in a china shop.
In case you missed it, Costner just posted a video on Instagram in which he said he would not be playing John Dutton again in season 5’s second half. He greeted everyone with the poise of a seasoned storyteller. After a grueling year and a half of working on Horizon and doing all the necessary tasks, I simply wanted to reach out and let you know that I know you enjoy Yellowstone, the cherished series that I adore. I’ve recently come to the realization that I won’t be able to finish Season 5b or go on.
What an unexpected twist in the story! It is simply incomprehensible, similar to choosing not to consume your dessert.
It was a very transformative experience for me. “I adored it, and I’m sure you did too,” Costner went on, touching every tender spot. “To let you know that I’m not coming back,” he said once again. Then, he gave us a classic line: “I love the relationship we’ve been able to develop. I’ll see you at the movies.” There won’t be a dry eye in the house, something tells me.
We were first introduced to John Dutton III, a character as tough as a two-dollar steak, during Costner’s tenure on the show from 2018 to 2022. He starred with a great group of actors that included Luke Grimes, Kelly Reilly, and Wes Bentley as the father of the Dutton family. Should the Yellowstone set be a rock group, Costner would undoubtedly be the front man.
The writers’ strike caused a series of production delays, but in the end, the first half of season 5 premiered from November 2022 to January 2023. A November 2023 conclusion was first promised to us, but like all good things, it was pushed back. So set a reminder for November 10, 2024, when the Dutton family will return to our screens.
“I liked the people on the show,” Costner said in an exclusive heart-to-heart interview. I found the premise appealing. That planet is my favorite. As evident by his ranking as the #1 in PEOPLE’s annual 100 Reasons to Love America issue, Kevin Costner’s love for Yellowstone is as authentic as mom’s apple pie.
“When it was first pitched to me by Taylor [Sheridan], it was one season and [like] a long movie, which [is] speaking my language,” the legend went on. however in the end, I believe the studio didn’t want that to happen.
Costner, the warrior that he is, happily
Male nurse has absolutely no clue that he’s on camera as he decided to grant his old patient’s final ever wish
We all go through life knowing that someday we won’t be here forever. I’m not afraid of dying and see it as a natural part of life. But what does worry me is growing old and not being able to take care of myself. The idea of relying on a hospice nurse makes me a bit anxious.
The thought of needing help with everything, being unable to do simple things on my own, and forgetting my loved ones’ names scares me. It’s not the kind of life I’d want. This fear reminds me of Maria, a music teacher who was cared for by a hospice nurse in 2016.
One night, as I was leaving at the end of my shift, I said ‘Goodnight, Irene.’ Then I asked her if she knew the song ‘Goodnight, Irene,’ and I sang a little bit of it. She looked at me and smiled,” Berg said. “For someone who didn’t usually talk much with the nurses, that smile meant a lot, and I knew I had made a connection with her.”As Rosipajla’s health got worse, it was decided to move her from the hospital to hospice care. “The last time I took care of Irene, I wanted to do something kind for her and her family, so I brought my guitar,” said Berg, who had studied music in college. “I sang ‘Goodnight, Irene,’ and it was a really special moment. I was nervous about singing in front of someone, but when I started playing and singing, she was so focused, and her family was really touched.”
Michelle Naypauer, Irene Rosipajla’s daughter-in-law who saw her as a mother, was in the room and moved to tears. “Irene was a wonderful person who treated me like a daughter,” Naypauer said. “In the last few months, Irene was in and out of the hospital, and we got to know Annamarie well.”
“Before the song, Annamarie had already done some great things. Our middle son, Eric, got married in August, and Annamarie helped set up FaceTime so Mom could be at the reception bridal table. It was beautiful,” Naypauer shared.
Naypauer, who recorded Annamarie singing to Irene, wanted to capture the special moment to share with the family. “There were so many tears, and it was just so beautiful,” she said. The song was a heartfelt farewell to Irene, who passed away a few weeks later at home, surrounded by her family.
