Overview

• Multiple outlets summarizing The Hollywood Reporter say Kevin Costner and Wes Bentley got into pushing and shoving during a dinner‑table scene with Kelly Reilly present.
• Sources report Costner urged Bentley to depart from Taylor Sheridan’s script, and Bentley refused, asserting he joined a Sheridan show rather than a Costner production.
• A witness says Reilly was in tears and production paused briefly after colleagues separated the actors, with no punches thrown.
• Bentley’s rep confirms an on‑set argument during an emotional, physically tough scene and says the matter was discussed and resolved; Costner’s spokesperson declined comment to THR.
• Insiders characterize the confrontation as a line‑in‑the‑sand that worsened relations and preceded Costner’s mid‑Season 5 departure, as Paramount moved forward with Yellowstone spin‑offs.
