Saddle up: the first full trailer for Yellowstone spinoff Dutton Ranch has been released, which you can catch up with below.
Now closer to Landman than Yellowstone in the Taylor Sheridan universe (which is also set in Texas), Dutton Ranch is clearly trying to get a clean break from Yellowstone‘s complicated past. But as we can see in the new clips, the spirit of John Dutton (Kevin Costner) is haunting his daughter.

In our first look at heartbreaking Dutton Ranch scenes, Beth admits that she misses her father, with Rip replying that they’ve “taken the best parts of him with us.”
There’s no doubt that this is setting the nine-episode series for an ongoing John Dutton subplot… but are we already overlooking the most intriguing part of what’s to come?
Annette Bening’s Beulah Jackson could be a Yellowstone villain for the ages in first Dutton Ranch trailer
Watch On
As the official Paramount character synopsis explains, “Seen squaring off with Beth Dutton character in the Dutton Ranch teaser trailer, Beulah is the powerful, charming, and cunning head of a major ranch who believes in the power of family legacy.”
Now let’s add this to the show’s overall synopsis. “Rip Wheeler and Beth Dutton gamble everything on a new life in South Texas, but the promise of building a future far from the ghosts of Yellowstone quickly collides with new realities and a rival ranch that will stop at nothing to protect its empire.”
Put two and two together, and we’re left with the assumption that Beulah heads the rival ranch in question… and judging from the above, playing nice isn’t in her vocabulary.
Not only is Annette Bening an incredible actress, but I can’t remember the last time that I saw her play an out-and-out villain. If I had to square up to her over a farm dispute, I’d be more chicken than cow, that’s for sure.
Obviously, it’s fantastic news for Yellowstone fans that John Dutton’s legacy is being carried over into Dutton Ranch. But if we want to explore Beth and Rip’s new story in full, it needs to be out with the old and in with the new.
