Lainey Wilson's Exciting Return To Yellowstone Season 5: What We Know

Lainey Wilson has all but confirmed that she’ll be returning to Yellowstone for the upcoming second half of Season 5. In a recent interview with Entertainment Tonight, Cassie DiLaura directly asked the "Hang Tight Honey" singer if she has received the call from series creator Taylor Sheridan to reprise her character, Abby, who is also a singer. Wilson playfully attempted a wink, saying, "I can’t wink, but I’m doing something with my eye right now," before trailing off with a laugh.

During the conversation, Wilson shared, "It's good news, I'll tell you that," emphasizing that she is working to make her busy recording and touring schedule compatible with filming. She expressed uncertainty about the exact start date but reassured fans that making time for the show is a priority for her.

Notably, Wilson made her acting debut in Season 5 of Yellowstone, where she played the love interest of Dutton ranch hand Ryan, portrayed by Ian Bohen. The connection between the characters was significant, as she even shared her first onscreen kiss in that role, which she discussed on the Dutton Rules podcast, revealing her main rule for the scene.

As filming for the much-anticipated second half of Yellowstone Season 5 takes place in Montana, cast members confirmed that new episodes are set to premiere on Paramount Network on Sunday, November 10, at 8 PM ET. The first half of Season 5 debuted in late 2022, but the continuation faced delays due to scheduling conflicts involving Taylor Sheridan and the show's star, Kevin Costner.

Costner's departure from the show has prompted Sheridan to halt future seasons, and fans are eager to see how the upcoming episodes will wrap up the series. A sequel is reportedly in the works, rumored to feature Matthew McConaughey. As the excitement builds, Lainey Wilson's return adds an extra layer of anticipation for loyal viewers of Yellowstone.
