Yellowstone Stars Reunite for Luke Grimes' Explosive Spinoff Y: Marshals!
Luke Grimes Rides Solo: Yellowstone Alum Joins Forces with New Cast for Highly-Anticipated Spin-Off Y: Marshals
In a move that's got everyone buzzing, Luke Grimes is taking the reins as the star of his own spin-off series, Y: Marshals. The 41-year-old heartthrob will reprise his role as Kayce Dutton, the rugged and handsome son of Kevin Costner's John Dutton on the smash hit show Yellowstone.
But that's not all - Grimes has just enlisted the help of three familiar faces from the original series, including child star Brecken Merrill (Tate Dutton), Gil Birmingham (Broken Rock Reservation chief Thomas Rainwater), and Mo Brings Plenty (Rainwater's trusty aide-de-camp). The trio will be joined by a host of new talent, including Ash Santos (American Horror Story), Tatanka Means (Killers of the Flower Moon), and Arielle Kebbel (The Vampire Diaries).
As series regulars, the newcomers will play Kayce's fellow U.S. Marshals, tasked with bringing justice to the wilds of Montana. But what's got everyone talking is the arrival of Logan Marshall-Green as Pete Calvin, a military buddy who just happens to be an old flame of Grimes' character.
But don't think this spin-off will be a one-man show - sources close to the production have revealed that Kelsey Asbille (Monica Dutton) may make a return appearance as Kayce's wife and Tate's mom. If true, it would mean that almost the entire original cast is back on board for the new series.
The Feud that Never Was?
It seems like there's been some drama brewing behind the scenes - or at least that's what fans are speculating after a tell-all interview with Grimes in Men's Health. The star revealed that he hadn't spoken to Costner since his departure from the show, citing scheduling conflicts and a reported feud between the two.
But when pressed for details on set, Grimes shrugged off any rumors of a beef, saying "It's not a case of any hard feelings or anything; it's just, he's Kevin Costner. He's a big deal." When asked if he had his phone number, Grimes quipped that he did - but wouldn't be reaching out anytime soon.
But is it True?
In an exclusive clip obtained by thescholarlynote.com, Costner himself shut down any rumors of a feud with Grimes. "I think we've all moved on from this," he said, when asked about his relationship with his former co-star.
It seems like both parties are trying to put the past behind them - but will their efforts pay off? With Y: Marshals set to premiere soon, one thing's for sure: fans can't wait to see what happens next in the world of Kayce Dutton and company.
What We Know So Far
Here's a rundown of what we know about the highly-anticipated spin-off:
- The show will follow Kayce as he works for the U.S. Marshals, using his skills as a Navy SEAL and cowboy to bring justice to Montana.
- Grimes will reprise his role as Kayce Dutton, but don't worry - this time around, he'll be leading the charge in a whole new way.
- The series has already picked up seven new cast members, including Ash Santos, Tatanka Means, and Arielle Kebbel.
- Logan Marshall-Green joins the fray as Pete Calvin, a military buddy with a complicated past with Kayce.
What's Next?
With Y: Marshals set to premiere in the coming months, fans are eagerly awaiting the next chapter in Kayce Dutton's story. Will this spin-off live up to the hype of its predecessor? Only time will tell - but one thing's for sure: Grimes and his new castmates have got everyone talking.
The show's logline promises a wild ride, with Kayce attempting to "bring range justice to Montana, where he and his teammates must balance family, duty, and the high psychological cost that comes with serving as the last line of defense in the region’s war on violence."
It's clear: this is going to be one heck of a wild west adventure.
