Yellowstone is making its final return to The Paramount Network and Paramount Plus this November, with Kelly Reilly reprising her role as the formidable Beth Dutton. The second half of season five marks the end of the show after Kevin Costner's departure from the drama. As Yellowstone concludes this November, British actress Kelly has already secured a new role in a six-part limited series - a Sky Original titled Under Salt Marsh.
This gripping crime thriller unfolds in the fictional Welsh town of Morfa Halen. Kelly will portray Jackie Ellis, a former detective turned teacher, who stumbles upon the body of her eight-year-old student, Cefin, apparently drowned. The synopsis reads: "The discovery sends shockwaves through the community, reviving the ghost of an unsolved cold case that rocked the town three years prior - the disappearance of Jackie's niece, Nessa, which cost her career.
" Cefin's death draws Jackie's former partner, Detective Eric Bull, back to lead the investigation into a community he failed previously. The synopsis adds: "Convinced the cases are linked, Jackie and Bull must reconcile and race to uncover long-buried secrets inside Morfa, before the storm breaks and all the evidence is gone for good." "An intimate and cinematic story, Under Salt Marsh takes audiences into the heart of a community bound by nature and fractured by an unthinkable crime.
" Kelly, a celebrated actress in theatre, film and TV, has been shortlisted for the 2023 Critics Choice Award for B.
