The Oscar winner has denied that he quit the show because of an alleged feud with creator Taylor Sheridan.

During the Season 5B premiere that aired Nov. 11, Costner’s John Dutton was murdered in a plot orchestrated by lawyer Sarah Atwood (Dawn Olivieri), sparking significant fan backlash.

Costner weighed in on John’s death on SiriusXM’s “The Michael Smerconish Program” and revealed that he didn’t get a heads up about his character’s fate.

“I didn’t see it. I heard it’s a suicide. That doesn’t make me wanna rush to go see it,” he said.
