Summary
Benjamin Cavell will run Season 2 of "Dutton Ranch," taking over after Chad Feehan exited before the Season 1 premiere amid reported disputes with cast and executive producers.
Mariano Reyes, a cartel leader played by Raoul Trujillo, becomes the new central threat after kidnapping Carter in the finale, pushing Beth and Rip back onto the offensive.
Kelly Reilly and Cole Hauser said Season 2 should feature more of Ed Harris, whose Everett emerged as an ally rather than the main villain many viewers expected.
A crossover with Luke Grimes's "Marshals" is being teased after that series also ended with a son taken to Texas, extending Paramount's broader Yellowstone spinoff arc.
