The show will resume production in May. Created by Taylor Sheridan, the series airs on Paramount Plus and has spawned spin-off prequel 1883 with Faith Hill and Tim McGraw.

Yellowstone follows sixth-generation homesteader and devoted father, John Dutton, who controls the largest contiguous ranch in the United States that borders an expanding town, an Indian reservation, and America's first national park. However, as land grabs make developers billions, he has to enter the corrupt world of shifting alliances, unsolved murders, and hard-earned respect to keep the family property.

Yellowstone's season four premiere reached 14 million viewers, and the season four finale was watched by 15 million total viewers.

The cast has been nominated for best ensemble in a drama series at the 2022 Screen Actors Guild Awards.

"Yellowstone’s record-breaking performance proves we’ve tapped a cultural nerve and unleashed a passionate audience from the center of the country to each of the coasts," Chris McCarthy, president and CEO of ViacomCBS Media Networks, said in a statement.

"We are honored to be able to bring audiences another season of Yellowstone. The continued growth in viewership and the recent recognition from the guilds bolsters our commitment to continue to bring groundbreaking entertainment to audiences," added executive producer David C. Glasser in today’s announcement.
