Paramount+ officially confirmed Dutton Ranch will return for season two. The announcement was made ahead of the first season’s penultimate episode, streaming on Friday, June 26, 2026.
The renewal was expected, given that 12.9 million viewers watched the Yellowstone spinoff in the week following its premiere. That number was impressive enough to make it the most-watched original series debut in the streamer’s history. Dutton Ranch also earned the top spot among all streaming series for the week of its debut.
Season one premiered on May 15, 2026 starring Kelly Reilly as Beth, Cole Hauser as Rip, and Finn Little as Carter, reprising their roles from Yellowstone. The first season’s cast also includes Juan Pablo Raba as Joaquin, Jai Courtney as Rob-Will, J.R. Villarreal as Azul, Marc Menchaca as Zach, Natalie Alyn Lind as Oreana, Ed Harris as Everett, and Annette Bening as Beulah.
“Beth and Rip are among the most iconic duos in television history and we are thrilled to bring a whole new world to life with Dutton Ranch for our subscribers around the world,” stated Jane Wiseman, Head of Originals for Paramount+. “We’re also incredibly grateful to our partners, including the teams at Paramount Television Studios and 101 Studios, for bringing this new series to life with such grit, heart, and authenticity.”
Chad Feehan serves as the first season’s showrunner. Feehan, Cole Hauser, Kelly Reilly, Taylor Sheridan, John Linson, David C. Glasser, Art Linson, and Ron Burkle executive produce. Additional executive producers include David Hutkin, Bob Yari, Christina Alexandra Voros, Michael Friedman, and Keith Cox. Season one directors include Voros, Greg Yaitanes, Jessica Lowrey, and Phil Abraham.
The drama’s produced by Paramount Television Studios and 101 Studios.
Season one found Beth and Rip forced to leave Montana after their ranch burned down. They settled in South Texas, but life hasn’t gotten any easier after the huge move.
“Dutton Ranch has resonated with audiences in a powerful way, building on the legacy of beloved characters while establishing its own identity,” said Matt Thunell, President of Paramount Television Studios. “Thank you to our partners at Paramount+ and 101 Studios for a phenomenal first season. We look forward to bringing fans more stories from these unforgettable characters in season two.”
