Having been introduced in Yellowstone season 4, Carter remained a regular character until the series finale and had quite the character arc.
From meeting Beth as his own father was dying in hospital to feeling as though he had nowhere to go when he did lose his father to drug addiction, Beth and Rip quickly became guardians to the young character and gave him work on the Dutton ranch.
It’s expected that this new series will remain in the present-day like Yellowstone and will share the most integral parts of the original show, compared to various spin-offs like 1923 or 1883.
More recently, Rip actor Cole Hauser opened up about the new spin-off and put an end to rumours that it will be called Dutton Ranch. Speaking to Fox News, he said: “Well, first of all, it’s not Dutton Ranch. That’s not the name of it.”
He went on: “We can expect the same that we’ve been doing for the last seven years. Kelly [Reilly] and I going and working our asses off trying to create something special.”

It had been reported last year that the new spin-off was in the works, another series being developed by the franchise’s creator Taylor Sheridan.
It’s not the first spin-off and isn’t even the only one in the works. There’s also The Madison, which is set to star Hollywood icon Michelle Pfeiffer.
The logline for the series states that The Madison “is a heartfelt study of grief and human connection following a New York City family in the Madison River valley of central Montana”.
As for Rip and Beth’s series, we’ll just have to keep our eyes peeled for details about the new show and whether anymore familiar Yellowstone faces will be making an appearance.
