The secret is out. Bezos’ Amazon Studios just doesn’t know what to do with their A-list shows. For a long time, Jeff Bezos has dreamt of owning a legendary show much like Game of Thrones. But to no avail, Amazon Studios launched Citadel very recently, which was such an ambitious project. And even before that, The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power was supposed to change the tide for the company. Now, there’s just confusion and relent wherever you see Amazon news. So what’s up with Bezos’ Amazon Studios and why can’t they find the great Amazon Prime series that defines them?

Amazon News: Big Swings Miss

The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power was supposed to be the greatest thing to happen to Salke-led Amazon Studios. When it opened up last September, its impact was so huge, Salke called it “a very culturally defining moment.” But her bubble burst quickly. While the show was great, it was in no way, remarkable. The same fate met The Wheel of Time in November 2021. These fantasy adaptations with big budgets lack big applause. 

Inside Amazon headquarters, things are a bit weary. Showrunners are confused about Salke and Amazon’s vision and it looks like just about anything can fly as the best show. But is this the right approach? How will Amazon find its own Breaking Bad if they’re not even pointed in a direction?

“There’s no vision for what an Amazon Prime show is. You can’t say, ‘They stand for this kind of storytelling.’ It’s completely random what they make and how they make it.” These are the words of a showrunner working with Amazon. Surprise surprise! Amazon is still struggling. It’s certainly a bit upsetting when insiders themselves are confused about a streamer’s future.

“I have never been one to say ‘We need five action franchise shows and three workplace situation comedies.’ That’s the kiss of death,” she says. “You don’t reverse-engineer true creative vision. We are programming for over 250 million households across the entire globe.” 

Perhaps Salke has a vision no one can quite see yet. Perhaps that was why she invested heavily in Air (2023). It’s a Nike movie that tells the legacy of the shoes starring Ben Affleck and Matt Damon. Affleck claims that his deal with Salke was genuine, and she was pretty on the point about everything. He mentioned how Salke was “straightforward, and true to her word.” She “always had thoughtful ideas and notes,” and. “We took almost all of them.” said Affleck who is a big part of the new Air movie.

Some call the investment crazy since Salke bought it rather quickly, investing about $160 million. This better be a worthy investment for the Amazon Studios lead but that’ll take some time to find out. Meanwhile, you can totally binge on Matt I Jones movies and TV shows to kill time.

There are major delays up ahead for the second half of Yellowstone season 5. The issues have arisen after multiple reports of Kevin Costner, the star of the show, exiting the series. Keith Cox, who is the president of development and production at Paramount, looked rather positive. 

He was certain that Costner will stay with them for the rest of the show. And just think about how Yellowstone could be Yellowstone without the main guy! But things are looking weird for the series now. So, if you’re wondering when is Yellowstone season 5 going to air, the answer is no one knows! Let’s break it down.

Yellowstone Season 5

Cox appeared on a panel at the PaleyFest event. He was open to talking about the future of the famous series, but lo and behold, not much about Costner. Reports of Kevin Costner leaving Yellowstone have been around for a while now. Fans are apprehensive but Cox does not share their sentiment. Here’s what he had to say about the so-called ‘rumors’:

“What I can say is our star, the face of our show, and the executive producer, are very confident he’s going to continue with our show.”

If only Costner or his reps talked to anyone about the issue. Yellowstone season 5, part 2 was meant to make its return this summer. However, a number of cast members, including Costner, were absent from this PaleyFest panel. Is it a coincidence that everyone is busy at the same time? Fans are now speculating about an untimely cancellation of the beloved series.

Even the creator of the show, Taylor Sheridan, was missing from the whole event. It becomes even more intriguing when you realize that Costner, Sheridan, Gil Birmingham, Luke Grimes, Wes Bentley, Kelly Reilly, and Jacki Weaver were among the many who were supposed to show up. The first part of season 5 started airing in November last year.

Josh Lucas on Yellowstone Season 5 as Costner

Costner is reportedly trying to step back from Yellowstone to focus on his directorial abilities. He’s currently trying to work on a Western project called Horizon. The reports 

flew around Hollywood after Matthew McConaughey was reported to star in a spinoff for Peacock. The panel finally had one of the stars of the show, Josh Lucas, in it. Lucas explained Sheridan’s final vision for the show.

“And so you know that that’s just … the evolution of what the ranch is. That’s why when you see the cemetery and you see the names of Elsa and you see the names of Jacob and you see these names,” said Lucas at the panel. 

According to him, things are going to change. This means that perhaps Sheridan had prepared for an exit by Costner. It’s sufficient to say that Yellowstone season 5 is going to be as unpredictable as they come.

“I think it’s of course going to evolve and change,” said Lucas. “And I think that’s what hopefully people will really like as it goes.”

So the question remains, will Kevin Costner really leave the series behind? If he does, will it ever be the same? Welp, looks like some questions only find answers away from the present.
