While fans are hopeful for Beth’s return, the actress has given mixed signals regarding the future. In an interview with Esquire, Reilly opened up about Beth’s “end game.” The actress stated:
“As an actor, especially one that’s been put through hell and back with a character like Beth, I was like, ‘What’s the end game?’ And there’s a big cliffhanger obviously at the end of season three. Obviously I can’t tell you whether or not Beth makes it another day, to see if she finds that peace that you talk about. But it’s an interesting question with any character. Is happiness something that is an ultimate end goal?”

Beth explained that the show’s creator was not entirely sure how the next season would look, but Taylor already had an ending vision for each character in the series.
Yellowstone returns for season four next June.
