Sunday's Paramount Network premiere of the long-awaited second half of "Yellowstone" Season 5 starts with emergency crews at the Montana governor's mansion, home of Costner's embattled patriarch, Governor John Dutton.

Director Christina Voros dives into the highly anticipated return of the hit Paramount Network series to reveal how they kept John Dutton's fate a secret (there were code words), how it propels everything forward and how the cast "shouldered the weight of [Costner's] absence in such a bold and beautiful way.

Even after John Dutton (Kevin Costner) is dead and gone from “Yellowstone,” bad things happen to those who dare to cross him.

Yellowstone fans are freaking out after a character was killed off in the storyline again after John Dutton's death in the first episode.
