How John Dutton Can Still Die In Yellowstone Season 5, Despite Kevin Costner’s "Moral Death" Contract Clause

As Yellowstone season 5, part 2 has continuously been delayed by WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes, the question of John Dutton’s death in the show’s final installment has been up in the air, but now, even the specific way in which the series’ patriarch could die is now a subject of speculation. Although Kevin Costner has portrayed the role of John Dutton for five seasons of Yellowstone, his involvement in the final part of the series is currently unclear, leading many to theorize that his character will be killed. However, a recent finding in Costner’s Yellowstone contract puts a unique wrench in this theory.
