'Yellowstone' Fan Favorites Kelly Reilly & Cole Hauser Are FINALLY Getting Their Own Spinoff

Dec 13, 2024

Yellowstone comes to a close on Sunday, December 15, but Beth and Rip's story is far from over. That's right, stars Kelly Reilly and Cole Hauser are coming back for a Yellowstone spinoff from creator Taylor Sheridan! Rather than a prequel like 1883 and 1923, this new series seems to be a continuation of the OG story we've loved since Yellowstone premiered in 2018.

Keep reading for everything we know about Kelly Reilly & Cole Hauser's new Yellowstone spinoff about Beth & Rip.

The 'Yellowstone' spinoff "shares the most DNA" with the original show.

Paramount

Okay so we don't have too much official info on the Yellowstone spinoff yet (come on y'all the show hasn't even ended!!) but Deadline reports that the series could feature other cast members from the original show. PLEASE let Kayce and Monica (Luke Grimes and Kelsey Asbille) make an appearance. I just cannot get enough of those two.

And, naturally, "the new offshoot shares the most DNA with the mothership of any shows in the Yellowstone universe to date, which explains why it will be the first spinoff to carry Yellowstone in the title," according to Deadline sources. 1883 and 1923 introduced us to new time periods and characters within the Dutton family, but continuing the same relationship arcs and family dynamics will make this Yellowstone spinoff feel more familiar than ever.

Kelly Reilly talks "beautiful" 'Yellowstone' season 5.

Kelly Reilly told Entertainment Weekly ahead of the season 5 premiere on November 10 that "Beth is more like a wild animal this season than ever. When I read the scripts, it made me think [that] she is, for the first time, maybe afraid she will lose it for [her dad]."

And I'm very interested to see how the series wraps up this season's plot line of keeping the ranch in the family — and how that will affect Beth and Rip's future. "It's dark, brutal and desperate stuff — gaining power, losing it, defending and fighting," she continues. "It's bloody and at times beautiful in how it breaks them into their core selves."

“I read the last episode the day before we started filming,” Luke Grimes told Entertainment Weekly. “I couldn't be happier. I think it's a perfect ending for the show for every character. It's just a testament to what a good writer Taylor is, and it's a very, very profound, beautiful ending. I can't wait to sit down and watch it one day.”

We don't know what the 'Yellowstone' spinoff is called yet...but it'll have 'Yellowstone' in the title.

Paramount and Taylor Sheridan haven't announced the title for the Yellowstone spinoff yet, but based on those Deadline sources, it'll have "Yellowstone" in the title. The series finale is called "Life Is A Promise," and Yellowstone: Promise would be very poetic, but it feels a little too flowery for the Duttons. The giant tree on the season 5 poster makes me think of Yellowstone: Roots. We'll just have to wait and see. No matter what the title is, here's hoping we get awesome cameos like Bella Hadid ;).

The James Bond Cast Rumors Are Insane — 5 Men We Think Have Major Chances

It has been over three and a half years since Daniel Craig's final James Bond movie, No Time to Die, premiered in October 2021. Amazon has since acquired the Bond franchise, and now that a new film is finally in the works, fans around the globe are wondering who will continue the legacy of 007.

Following Daniel's majorly successful five-year streak as the spy, he's passing the torch and leaving behind some pretty big shoes to fill. Still, the next Bond has yet to be cast, prompting plenty of speculation online. And the casting rumors — full of very, very attractive men — definitely do not disappoint. Here's who everyone thinks could be the next Bond!

Scroll to see the rumored top contenders to play James Bond next...

1. Theo James

First up on the watch list is Theo James, most well-known for starring in The Gentlemen andThe White Lotusseason 2. The 40-year-old from Oxford, England, would be the right age for the role, but Theo himself actually pushed back against the idea in 2024.

"Everyone's interested in that because it's a big part of British cultural identity, but that probably wouldn't be me. I do think there are better people for that job," he explained to The Guardianat the time.

"And honestly, it would be terrifying: if you do that, there's no going back. You are opening Pandora's box there. You have got to be willing to live a very different life and have a different life for your family. And that would be pretty tricky."

So, while many still want the iconic role to go to Theo James, fans have begun setting their sights on other potential Bond actors, like Aaron Taylor-Johnson, John O'Connor, Regé-Jean Page, and Henry Cavill.

2. Aaron Taylor-Johnson

Starting with Aaron Taylor-Johnson, he is 34 years old, and his slightly younger age could be beneficial to the franchise, allowing them to hold onto the same 007 for a bit longer. But, ever since The Sun reported that Aaron could snag the role "should he wish to accept it" in 2022, the actor has been avoiding questions about the franchise.

3. Josh O'Connor

Meanwhile, Josh O'Connor previously joked to Deadline, saying, "Wouldn't it be funny if I played Bond?" and the idea really riled up fans. Just like Aaron, Josh is 34, but it appears his quip might've been just that. In fact, in 2025, he claimed to "have no thoughts" on the role, saying he and Daniel Craig "did an Actors on Actors, and then something else happened, and then suddenly I was James Bond. If I am Bond, I don't know about it."

4. Regé-Jean Page

Following Regé-Jean Page's portrayal of the Duke of Hastings in the hit Netflix series Bridgerton, he also got thrust into the 007 conversation. But even though he expressed flattery over the speculation in 2023, he hasn't indicated any part in the next Bond film and, at the time, stated to Vanity Fairthat he had "enough on his plate."

5. Henry Cavill

Finally, one more so-called frontrunner for the spy franchise is Henry Cavill. During a 2024 appearance on The Rich Eisen Show, he didn't seem that opposed to becoming the next Bond, either. Nonetheless, when asked whether he thought he'd get cast, the 41-year-old admitted his age may be an issue.

"I have no idea; all I've got to go on are the rumors. The same information you have. Maybe I'm too old now, maybe I'm not, we'll see," he replied.

Other Potential James Bond Actors

Some other actors that fans believe are potentially Bond-worthy include Joe Alwyn, Paul Mescal, Richard Madden, and Idris Elba. Still, it seems that we will just have to wait and see until the next film, expected to be released in theaters by the end of 2027, gets further into production and promotion.

8 Unique Easter Egg Hunt Ideas You Probably Haven’t Tried Before

While the thrill of waking up on Easter and searching for colorful eggs might feel timeless as a kid, the annual tradition can start to become a little predictable as time goes on (and your children get older).

So, if you want to shake things up this year, skip the same old routine and surprise your family with twists they won't see coming. Here are some creative Easter egg hunt ideas that will make the holiday extra memorable and keep everyone more engaged.

Scroll to see the unique Easter egg hunt ideas you need to try in 2025!

1. "ABCs" Egg Hunt

Dre Dawkcide

First, if you have younger ones, you can turn your Easter egg hunt into a learning experience with an added playful challenge. All you have to do is hide 26 eggs, each of which is labeled with a different letter.

Then, give your kiddo a checklist to mark off each letter as they find it. Not only will this activity help you actually remember how many eggs you hide this year, but it'll reinforce letter recognition in a fun, hands-on way. As an extra bonus, you can even tuck a small prize inside the eggs to match their corresponding letters!

2. Color-Coded Egg Hunt

Eren Li

Now, if you have multiple children who battle to find all the Easter eggs each year, then you know that things can get chaotic and tense. To say goodbye to sibling squabbles, simply assign each kid a specific egg color and matching basket.

If you have two sons, for instance, hide 20 green eggs and 20 blue eggs. They'll know exactly which eggs to search for, and everything will be kept fair since they'll each get to find the same number.

3. Glow In The Dark Hunt

alleksana

There's obviously more to Easter than just the fun of egg-hunting. Nonetheless, for kids, it's often the most looked-forward-to portion of the day, and once it's over, it can be hard to keep them entertained or invested in the celebration.

But with a glow-in-the-dark Easter egg hunt, you can delay that! Just wait until the sun goes down to host a nighttime version of the tradition with the help of glow-in-the-dark paint or glow sticks inside plastic eggs. Your children will be looking forward to it all day (and probably stay on their best behavior as they wait to participate).

4. Advent Calendar Hunt

Jill Wellington

To extend the Easter fun even further, remember that you don't have to limit the festivities to just one day. Instead, spread the joy out with an Easter-themed countdown hunt!

Every day during the week leading up to Easter, hide one egg or goody bag that's filled with treats or tiny surprises. It will build anticipation in an adorable way that gets your kiddos super excited.

5. Traditional Egg Hunt: Simon Says Edition

Eren Li

Growing up, your family might've always put little chocolates or coins inside your Easter eggs. To infuse the tradition with some more action, consider including "Simon Says" and call it "Easter Bunny Says!"

Just place a piece of paper inside each egg that contains a fun instruction, such as "hop like a bunny" or "spin in a circle three times." It's a great way to keep the giggles going and expel some extra energy before the sugar craze hits.

6. Scavenger Hunt

RDNE Stock project

For older kids (or even adults), take your Easter egg hunt up a notch by turning it into a scavenger hunt. Depending on where you're planning the hunt, like inside your home or in the backyard, come up with clues and riddles that correspond with hiding spots in that location.

It adds a puzzle-solving element that can be adapted for tweens, teens, and, again, the older folks who still want to get in on the fun.

7. Reward Hunt

Gustavo Fring

Another smart idea to sweeten the whole deal is turning your Easter egg hunt into a mini reward system. Alongside the typical candy, tuck in notes that offer fun perks, like extra bedtime stories, a chore pass, or even a screen time coupon.

8. Easter Egg & Balloon Hunt

Gabe Pierce

Finally, if you have a baby or toddler who isn't quite ready to participate in the conventional Easter egg hunt, all you have to do is incorporate some balloons to make the activity easier.

First, fill up some helium balloons and tie a chocolate egg to the bottom of each string. Then, you can let them bop around your home or backyard, serving as straightforward markers for your little ones to spot. Not to mention, what kid doesn't love a balloon?!

Blake Lively & Anna Kendrick Pack On The Drama In New 'Another Simple Favor' Trailer

Blake Lively and Anna Kendrick return in our first Another Simple Favor trailer! And when Blake’s character Emily shows up at Stephanie’s (Anna Kendrick) book reading, Steph asks the question I’ve wondered all along: how is Emily out of jail? Of course, Emily ignores the question and instead asks Stephanie to be her maid of honor. WHAT.

Keep reading for our breakdown of the Another Simple Favor trailer before the movie drops on Prime Video May 1.

The new 'Another Simple Favor' trailer is explosive (literally).

The new Another Simple Favor trailer is even crazier than the first — in addition to fireworks, and Anna Kendrick's Stephanie trying to figure out Emily's master plan (and almost getting thrown off a building?), a building explodes — and lots of people look on in shock as something off screen holds their attention.

We haven't seen Stephanie and Emily come to blows this time around (yet), but they're true masterminds who are determined to outsmart each other and are basically fighting without actually fighting. And in a hilarious moment at the end what appears to be a drowned body is really just Stephanie holding her breath for as long as possible.

Blake Lively haunts Anna Kendrick in 'Another Simple Favor' trailer.

Another Simple Favor, of course, sees the return of Blake Lively and Anna Kendrick, but we'll also see Henry Golding, Bashir Salahuddin, Alex Newell, Andrew Rannells, Aparna Nancherla, and Kelly McCormack.

The main thread throughout the story is how Emily feels about Stephanie stealing her life…and despite the fact she doesn’t say she’s out for revenge, I totally think Stephanie needs to watch her back. We also finally get a really good look at Em's lush Italian wedding, and I'm not surprised that she's gone all out for the big day. If there's one thing Emily loves, it's a statement.

Another Simple Favor was briefly touched by Blake Lively’s It Ends With Us controversy when rumors claimed A Simple Favor 2 had been postponed.

"Despite glowing test screenings, Blake Lively’s refusal to promote—amid her messy legal battle with Justin Baldoni—and growing tensions with Anna Kendrick have derailed the sequel," X user Eric B tweeted on January 10. "Anna is furious. Paul Feig is disappointed. Hollywood is in shock. This isn’t just a movie—it’s an implosion."

"This is total BS. Sorry," Paul said in his retweet that same day. "The movie is finished and coming out soon. Don’t believe anything you read on social media these days." Whew! I can't wait to see Another Simple Favor when it hits Prime Video on May 1. Stay tuned for the latest updates!

Olivia Munn Just Opened Up About Postpartum: “Harder Than Going Through Cancer”

Olivia Munn recently made refreshingly honest comments about her postpartum experience and it's made us love her even more. Our hearts were broken when the Your Friends and Neighbors actress revealed she'd been diagnosed with breast cancer last year, but she's chosen not to hide her journey as evidenced by a Skims ad she was featured in. The fact she's also being honest about her fertility journey feels like the admirable frankness we've come to expect from her.

Scroll to see everything Olivia Munn said about her postpartum journey!

Neilson Barnard/Getty Images for Vanity Fair

As the cover star of Self Magazine's latest issue, Olivia Munn opened up her career, health, and what it felt like after she had her son Malcolm. Of that time period, she said she was "operating normally" while also "feeling very depressed." However, she said things took a turn after she noticed a couple of things.

"It kicked into high gear when I hadn’t lost the baby weight, and nothing was fitting, and I would see people on social media, people I knew had babies around the same time. I reached out to some of them. And I’m like, ‘How are you in these Valentino shorts and this crop top just running around LA and having the energy to take all these beautiful pictures?'"

As a first-time mom who had tons of negative thoughts about her postpartum body, I totally get it.

However, Olivia didn't feel like pretending things were fine. "I didn’t even have the ability to fake it. I didn’t have the energy to fake anything they were faking." But she also mourned having a different experience with her and John Mulaney's second child, Meí June.

"It was devastating for me not to be able to carry [Méi]. I loved carrying my son. But postpartum was 'brutal,' she admits. Adding that "anxiety hit a month after Malcolm was born," the actress dove into detail about what looked like for her.

"My eyes pop open at 4 a.m. I’m gasping for air. I get the tightness in my chest, and it’s like that all day long. It felt like the end of the world…. It was like when you watch a horror movie—the worst, scariest horror movie you can think of—that’s how my body felt," she said.

It was so debilitating that she'd "have to sometimes hold John's arm from room to room." By that point, there was talks of her becoming medicated to get through her anxiety, but Olivia dropped another bombshell.

"...by the time I was talking about it, I was so far gone that even if you put a pill in my hand, I wouldn’t have taken it. When the depression or the anxiety takes over you so much, it’s almost like you won’t take the things that will help you."

On top of this, Olivia Munn struggled with breastfeeding due to a low milk supply. She said, "When you stop breastfeeding immediately, your hormones drop, and postpartum can come in like a tornado. And I didn’t clock any of that and I didn’t tell anybody about that. Then it was like I fell off a cliff, and I was just falling and falling and falling and falling. It was more difficult than going through cancer."

Oof, I can relate to the sudden change in breastfeeding instead of gradually slowing down. Although every mother's experience is different, it doesn't change the fact postpartum depression is very real and can be caused by a number of factors.

What do you think about Olivia Munn's experience?
