‘Yellowstone’ Beth & Rip Spinoff Cast: Finn Little to Return as Carter — Everything We Know

Yellowstone will continue with a spinoff about Beth Dutton and Rip Wheeler, with Kelly Reilly and Cole Hauser reportedly set to reprise their roles as the franchise’s favorite couple. A new report says that Finn Little will be back as well. Little plays Beth and Rip’s “adopted” son, Carter. He wasn’t legally adopted (that viewers know of) by the end of Yellowstone, but they took him in as their son.
Here’s everything there is to know so far about the so-far unnamed Yellowstone Beth and Rip spinoff.
Who is in the Yellowstone Beth and Rip spinoff cast?
Reilly and Hauser will be back as Beth and Rip, with Little back as their son. Deadline reported Little’s return on Friday, July 11. Other cast members will be announced at a later time.
Given that the series is most likely set on Beth and Rip’s new ranch in Montana, a few hours away from the former Yellowstone Dutton Ranch and about 45 minutes outside of Dillon, it might not be likely that we’ll see a bunch of Yellowstone faces in this new show. But appearances from the original cast are reportedly possible, per Deadline, if the characters survived Yellowstone‘s bloody final season.
Is Taylor Sheridan making the Yellowstone Beth and Rip spinoff?
Taylor Sheridan is creating the series. The new offshoot is a continuation of Yellowstone but is not being billed as Yellowstone Season 6 as previously reported. However, because it’s directly connected to the original show, it will reportedly include Yellowstone in the title — the first of the franchise’s spinoffs to do so.
Where can I watch the Yellowstone Beth and Rip spinoff?

Paramount Network / Everett Collection
The series will reportedly be a Paramount+ exclusive. Yellowstone aired on Paramount Network, with both of its spinoffs — 1883 and 1923 — streaming only on Paramount+. Luke Grimes‘ Kayce Dutton is also getting a spinoff, but it’s going to be a procedural airing on CBS in 2026. Sheridan is only an executive producer on that show, titled Y: Marshals. Yellowstone is available for streaming on Peacock in its entirety.
Another present-day series set in the Yellowstone universe is coming soon to Paramount. The Madison (previously called 2024) stars Michelle Pfeiffer, Matthew Fox, Patrick J. Adams of Suits, Firefly Lane alum Beau Garrett, Amiah Miller, Elle Chapman, and Ben Schnetzer.
A 6666 spinoff and a 1944 prequel are reportedly in development as well.
When does the Yellowstone Beth and Rip spinoff premiere?
A release date will be announced at a later time.
What is the Yellowstone Beth and Rip spinoff about?
Expect this new installment to be a continuation of Yellowstone, but likely in a different setting. It will reportedly be set in the same present-day timeline as Yellowstone and share much of the original show’s DNA. Hauser gave an update on the series in a recent interview with The Hollywood Reporter, telling fans to “expect the same that we’ve been doing for the last seven years” since Yellowstone began. Hauser and Reilly are “going and working our ass off trying to create something special,” he said.
Hauser also admitted that it’s odd to not have the original Yellowstone cast with them for this series, revealing in a backdoor way at least one character who won’t be seen in the new show.
“Not having the cast around certainly [is hard],” he said. “Forrie J. Smith [who played Lloyd] has become such a great friend of mine that to think that my right-hand guy wouldn’t be there [is hard]. But Kelly and I, we’re focused on [Rip and Beth’s] relationship and our love together and what we’re going to get [them] into.”
