Amid Bitter Divorce Battle, Kevin Costner Could File Huge Lawsuit Over ‘Yellowstone’ Exit
The actor Kevin Costner is making headlines due to the heated divorce battle he is undergoing with his ex-wife Christine Baumgartner. However, the former couple’s legal dispute has recently taken an interesting turn as Costner hinted that he may be filing a lawsuit over money he is allegedly owed for his work on ‘Yellowstone’.
The Hollywood star and Baumgartner were married for 18 years before their split. The two have been in a legal battle for some time now, but Costner recently revealed in court that he may be taking further legal action in the form of filing a lawsuit against the show’s producers.
Costner claims that he was not paid all of the money he was promised for his role as John Dutton on the Paramount Network series. He claims that he was promised a certain sum, but he has yet to receive the full amount.
The actor testified in court that he will “probably go to court” regarding his exit from the show. He stated, “I’m not getting paid for the last season of ‘Yellowstone’, so I’m probably going to have to go to court.” Costner went on to explain that he and Baumgartner had already agreed on a financial settlement for his role on the show, but he has yet to receive the money he was promised.
While the details surrounding Costner’s potential lawsuit are still unclear, it is believed that he is seeking a sizable sum for the money he was allegedly promised by the show’s producers. If Costner is successful in court, it could potentially be one of the largest payouts ever given to an actor for a television show.
Costner’s alleged lawsuit has been met with both support and criticism from fans of the show. Supporters of the actor claim that he should be paid for his work, while critics argue that he is simply trying to capitalize on the show’s success.
No matter what one thinks of Costner’s potential lawsuit, it is clear that the actor is not afraid to stand up for himself and be heard. Costner is a veteran actor who has been in the business for decades, and it is admirable that he is willing to fight for what he believes he is owed.
It will be interesting to see how things play out for Costner in the future. Regardless of the outcome, it is clear that the actor is not afraid to take a stand for his rights and fight for what he believes he is owed.
