Cole Hauser: The Missing Piece in the Yellowstone Puzzle

Date:

Key Takeaways:

– Taylor Sheridan had always envisioned Cole Hauser in the character of Rip Wheeler in Yellowstone.
– The casting was not straightforward, and Sheridan had to bypass the usual auditioning process for Hauser.
– Sheridan’s instincts have proven to be accurate as the show continues to command a huge viewership.
– Kevin Costner, another critical addition to the Yellowstone cast, could potentially direct an episode in the future.
– Taylor Sheridan’s latest series, Landman, is set to premiere on November 17th.

The Yellowstone Clan Welcomes Cole Hauser

In a bid to add more depth and fascination to its storyline, captivating drama series ‘Yellowstone’ enlisted the services of Hollywood A-lister Cole Hauser. Creators Kevin Costner and Taylor Sheridan believed that the star’s addition would introduce a new edge to the show. And they were right. Hauser ended up playing the missing piece in the Yellowstone puzzle, helping solidify the series as a television heavyweight.

The Perfect Fit for Rip Wheeler

As much as we adore Kevin Costner’s iconic portrayal of John Dutton, Sheridan knew another horseman would push the ranch’s story forward. Enter Cole Hauser, or should I say, Rip Wheeler? Unlike the casting of John Dutton, securing Rip wasn’t as plain sailing. Nonetheless, Sheridan was certain about his choice right from the start, skipping the traditional audition formalities as confidently stated to Deadline.

Per Sheridan, Hauser wears his heart on his sleeve, an attribute he saw fit for Rip’s character. The star’s previous exceptional performances in ‘Pitch Black’ and ‘Tears of the Sun’ further solidified Sheridan’s belief in his ability. Despite the different settings, Yellowstone’s creator saw a uniqueness in Hauser that he believed would translate perfectly into the series. He discussed this, depicting Hauser as a person who conveyed Midwestern resilience effortlessly, befitting the intimidating aura demanded by the character of Rip.

Making Hauser a part of the Yellowstone family wasn’t exactly a cakewalk, but Sheridan’s conviction paid off. Hauser added an additional layer of intricacy and authenticity to the Yellowstone universe.

Sheridan’s Small Screen Family Grows Bigger

While Hauser makes waves on Yellowstone, Sheridan is also staying busy with a new drama series titled ‘Landman.’ The series tells a modern-day story revolving around the oil canvas of West Texas. Billy Bob Thornton leads the ensemble cast that also includes other familiar faces and surprising entrants.

‘Sheridan’s Landman: A Glimpse into the Dark American Dream’ promises to be captivating, with its double-episode premier scheduled for November 17th on Paramount+. Make sure to mark this date, as the series pledges to offer an exploration of the ominous side of the American dream, authored by Taylor Sheridan.

Costner’s Potential Future Contribution

Sheridan recognizes that Yellowstone wouldn’t have reached its current heights without Costner. He even hints at the possibility of Costner directing future episodes, despite a busy shooting schedule that may find this challenging.

As Yellowstone approaches its conclusion, there’s no doubt Sheridan’s casting instincts for both Costner and Hauser were precise. These star additions have shaped Yellowstone into what it is today, paving the way for other dramas like ‘Landman.’

Watch the drama series Yellowstone on Peacock and experience the magic of Sheridan’s casting choices. With all these stirrings in the Paramount network, one thing is for sure. There is an exciting journey ahead for fans of Taylor Sheridan’s captivating dramas. Watch this space for more!
