Paramount Network’s hit drama series Yellowstone will ride into the sunset with the debut of its fifth and final season on November 10, although it’s still unclear if series star Kevin Costner will saddle up for the final episodes.

The six-episode second half of Yellowstone season five debuts November 10, nearly two years after the premiere of the show’s eight-episode first half, and will continue to follow the exploits of the Dutton family as it continues to fight for its large Montana cattle ranch. 

Paramount did not indicate in its press release whether series star Kevin Costner would return to film the final episodes, amid a scheduling conflict with the Academy Award-winning star’s upcoming feature film Horizon. Costner, in a recent interview on NBC morning show Today to promote Horizon, indicated that he would like to return to Yellowstone.

"It’s been really important to me,” Costner said in the interview. “I would love to go back under the right circumstances I think that all of us want“For me, it really needs to be the right circumstances.”

Yellowstone also stars Kelly Reilly, Luke Grimes, Wes Bentley and Kelsey Asbille. The series is executive produced by Taylor Sheridan, John Linson, Art Linson, David Glasser, Bob Yari, Stephen Kay, Michasel Friedman, Christina Voros and Keith Cox.  

Yellowstone is Paramount Network’s most-watched original show. Paramount ‘s sister broadcast network CBS aired the first three seasons of the series to strong ratings returns, with the September 2023 debut of Yellowstone's series premiere averaging 6.6 million viewers, according to Nielsen.  

ViacomCBS has teamed with the Ad Council to create a national campaign promoting social distancing in the wake of the coronavirus outbreak.

The campaign, #AloneTogether, is a national social and talent-led campaign that educates audiences on the importance of social distancing through entertainment, according to company officials.

The move comes as the US is in the grips of the coronavirus pandemic. The Center for Disease Control and Prevention has advised against gatherings of 50 people or more for the next eight weeks to curb the spread of the disease, while President Trump has advocated for avoiding gatherings of more than 10 people.

MTV, Comedy Central, Paramount Network, CMT and VH1 will drive the #AloneTogether campaign, which will feature video content -- including self-shot video and live takeovers from music and celebrity talent showing how they are spending their time at home -- that will be shared collectively to their more than 500 million social media followers, according to ViacomCBS. The campaign will also be tailored and supported by all ViacomCBS platforms, including Nickelodeon, BET, CBS and CBS All-Access, Awesomeness, Pluto TV and Showtime.

ViacomCBS and the Ad Council will also develop a toolkit of core creative assets so that #AloneTogether messaging can be used and expanded upon by other cable, broadcast, digital, social and audio companies.
