Ian Bohen on Kevin Costner’s exit from Yellowstone

Ian Bohen got candid about what he thinks of Kevin Costner’s exit from Yellowstone, and that with a unique example.

“I would use the analogy of a football team. If your quarterback gets hurt and he has to come out of the game, you have to play. So you gotta figure out another way to run the ball or throw the ball or just do different things because you can’t quit,” Bohen told Us Weekly on the red carpet at the 2024 CMA Awards on Wednesday, November 20.

“So that’s what happened. We lost our quarterback and we still have to play the game.”

The 48-year-old, who plays the role of rancher Ryan in the western drama, continued, “There’s a lot of other people there and families and the whole world around it and the stadium and everybody has to go to work.”

“So what are you gonna do? Well, you gotta figure it out. So that’s what we do. We found a way to figure it out,” he added.

After months of rumours about whether Costner, who played John Dutton, would feature in Yellowstone’s final episodes of season 5B, he announced his exit from the drama in June.
