Kelly Reilly Hopes for Peace in Beth Dutton’s Future as “Yellowstone” Nears Its End

The acclaimed actress shared her views on the journey of her character and what might possibly lie in store for Beth Dutton in the future as her hit series, “Yellowstone,” nears its end.
As the curtain gets ready to come down on Paramount Network’s runaway hit series “Yellowstone,” fans and cast members alike are curious about what awaits their much-loved characters. One of them is talented actress Kelly Reilly, who has brought to life the fiery and complicated Beth Dutton for five riveting seasons. In recent interviews, Reilly discusses her hopes in store for Beth’s ultimate destiny and hints at further stories in the “Yellowstone” universe.

A Long-Awaited Conclusion

After almost two years of anticipation, Season 5b, technically the last episodes of “Yellowstone,” is slated to début in November, giving rise to much speculation on how the sprawling Western saga will come full circle. For example, that confrontation between Beth and her brother, Jamie (Wes Bentley), left many viewers at the edge of their seats.

Reilly’s Vision for Beth

When asked what she would hope for Beth Dutton at the end of the series, Reilly surprisingly gave a simple yet profound answer. “What would I hope for her? Peace, I think,” she told TVLine. To that end, that sense of longing for peace is at extreme odds with her life up until now in the show, where Beth often was the most powerful warrior and protector of the Dutton family.
Reilly further elaborated on the prospect of the character coming to a place of happiness: “I certainly believe that she can find that. Whether or not that’s possible, I don’t know. She’s such a warrior, isn’t she? Her reason to be is to protect. Her reason to be is to fight.”

The Struggle for Happiness in “Yellowstone

While Reilly does believe Beth has the potential to find happiness, she also knows that comes with the territory of being part of a show that’s so dramatic. “I wonder if maybe happiness is not permitted,” she mused. “We’ve been able to see where it might be over the seasons, but she’s yanked out of it so quickly. Maybe there’s a future where she’s not like sort of ripped out of her happiness.”
This underlines the tension between Beth’s personal wants and the desires of her family in regard to its heritage, a recurring theme throughout the run of “Yellowstone.”

The Road to Peace

True peace for such a developed character as Beth Dutton would need a lot more development. “Peace requires some digging and some surrender and letting go of old pains and hurts,” she said to TVLine. This would be a vast departure from the Beth whom fans have grown to love. It means figuring out how that kind of evolution would play out in the rest of the episodes.

A Future Beyond “Yellowstone”?

While the “Yellowstone” series finale was well “over,” so to speak, the series has increasingly fueled rumors for spin-offs and continuations. Reilly herself has used such speculations to her advantage by revealing, “There’s potentially another chapter. It’s being talked about now.”
The actress agreed that she wanted to do more of the story of Beth, but only under one condition-including the series creator Taylor Sheridan. “He is the person that wrote every single line I ever said. [Beth] was born from his imagination, Reilly emphasized and underlined maintaining the authentic voice of that character.

About Expanding the “Yellowstone” Universe

While enthusiastic about the potential for even more exposure of Beth’s story, Reilly is well aware of the appetite for new storytelling. “She and Sheridan are very much in agreement that there’s a shift that has to take place,” to avoid Yellowstone universe’s being repetitive. This would open the possibility of Beth’s visions as Reilly envisions for her, while still engaging and exciting audiences in new ways.

The Sheridan Factor

The fate of Beth’s story will largely depend on Taylor Sheridan. He is already a workhorse accustomed to juggling several projects at a time. It would depend on how much time and commitment Sheridan will allow that could possibly push through any “Yellowstone” spin-offs or continuations.
However, if Reilly really needed to build an argument on Sheridan’s importance for Beth’s character developing to its fullest extent, then something spectacular in a creative relationship certainly put the show in another league. Yet, if anything had befallen Sheridan and prevented her continuation of the story in her own words, one cannot help but think about what might have been.

Musing on a Beloved Character

As “Yellowstone” approaches its conclusion, reflections by Reilly on Beth Dutton offer insight into how the actor has been drawn into a deep connection with her character. The desire that she feels to see Beth find peace speaks to a nuanced understanding that has developed over five seasons playing this complex woman.
This would be an excellent journey to follow-the transformation of Beth from the moment she is introduced as a fierce, often ruthless protector of the Dutton legacy to a potential future in which she finds a kind of peace-very interesting. Of course, it also shows Beth’s development as a person, but also demonstrates Reilly’s acting ability.
Come November, with the final episodes of “Yellowstone” finally ready, all its fans are tuning in to see how Beth Dutton’s story unfolds. Will she ever be at peace as Reilly hopes, or is her warrior spirit going to define her until the last breath?
No matter what the ending, Kelly Reilly’s Beth Dutton is etched in one’s mind as a phenomenon in television lore. She’d give depth, complexity, and raw emotion to a character that could easily be shown one-dimensional by lesser hands.
As the “Yellowstone” saga ends, hope remains for some continuation of Beth’s story in some way, allowing for a glimmer of hope that fans may not be ready to say good-bye. Whether through an option for an upcoming series spin-off or another chapter in the Dutton family saga, the idea of further exploring Beth’s journey toward peace and happiness might just keep the spirit of “Yellowstone” alive for years to come.
