This news comes after new details about Kevin's rift with Yellowstone creator Taylor Sheridan.
Sources claimed that Sheridan's alleged "God complex" has left Costner frustrated with the development of the hit Paramount Network series. There are also reports that Costner's character, John Dutton, may be killed off in the second half of Yellowstone's current fifth season.
The first half of the season ended on New Year's Day, with the second half initially scheduled to premiere this summer, though that timeline now seems uncertain.
Kevin, who is directing his Western saga Horizon, reportedly wanted to film the second half of the season for only one week.
It remains unclear when production on the new episodes of Yellowstone Season 5 will begin, or if they will indeed feature the death of John Dutton.
