NOT SO FATHERLY

Kevin Costner Shuts Down Question on ‘Yellowstone’ Co-Star Rift

After the series finale aired on Dec. 15, a paparazzi in Aspen, Colorado, asked Costner whether he and Luke Grimes had been in touch.

Kevin Costner had a short and not so sweet answer when quizzed on comments made about him by former Yellowstone co-star Luke Grimes. “To be really honest, there was a part of Kevin being gone that meant some of the conflict was gone,” Grimes told Esquire earlier this month. “Obviously, it didn’t make it super fun to be around. Not pointing any fingers, but it was actually the easiest season we’ve filmed.” And after the series finale aired on Dec. 15, a paparazzi in Aspen, Colorado, asked Costner whether he and Grimes, who played his son in Yellowstone, had been in touch. “We’re done talking,” he responded simply. But, earlier in the video obtained by DailyMail.com the Oscar-winner was more forthcoming. He was asked if he watched the season finale—in which his character John Dutton was killed off—and said: “I’m not thinking about it, I don’t think I’ve given it any thoughts, we’ll just let it go.”
