Wes Bentley predicts his Yellowstone character’s death

Jamie Dutton is one of the most divisive characters on Yellowstone and now Wes Bentley is predicting his fate…and it doesn’t seem good.

At a recent panel at the Screen Actors Guild, Wes Bentley offered his take on his Yellowstone character’s fate, Wes Bentley said, “I don’t think he’s playing a game here. He does want to see something left for his son. I think he has seen himself [dead] from before the beginning of the season. He’s already end-gamed what is happening to him. He knows what’s coming and he’s trying to get what he can out of it by making some moves and taking opportunities.” With that, Wes Bentley also pointed out that Taylor Sheridan reportedly already knows how Yellowstone will end, saying, “He has said to me, he knows how he wants to end it…That was a while ago. I’m sure he didn’t know how we were going to get there but he knows how.”

Wes Bentley also offered a minor analysis of Jamie. “Is he just holding onto power or is he actually trying to do something with the land?…I think Jamie has valid questions about a lot of things and that’s what’s complicated about him. He has a good argument. He doesn’t go about it the right way necessarily, or I guess in ways people hate, but it’s his way and it’s who he is.”

There has also been a strong Yellowstone fan reaction, with Wes Bentley pointing out, “I get therapy [from fans], which is weird. They want to talk to me about all his issues and what’s wrong with him. Or they yell at me across the room how much they hate me. But they’re smiling, so I feel safe. No one’s followed me anywhere yet.”

Yellowstone has been a consistent hit for Paramount, with massive ratings for the season five premiere and a much-hyped mid-season finale that left a lot of questions unanswered. Yellowstone will return to conclude the season this summer.

What do you think? Will Wes Bentley and Jamie make it to the end of Yellowstone or will he be killed off prior to that? Let us know your predictions below!
