Yellowstone’s final episode of its second season will feature Dabney Coleman as Kevin Costner’s father, and Karen Pittman was cast in a recurring role for the cable hit’s third season.

The season finale of the second season of Yellowstone will air on Wednesday, Aug. 28 and will feature a very special guest star. Deadline reports that Dabney Coleman will appear in a flashback as John Dutton Sr. the father of Kevin Costner’s character John Dutton. A first look at Coleman’s character can be seen in the photo below.

Coleman is a noted character actor famous for roles in films like WarGames, 9 to 5, and On Golden Pond. More recently he played Commodore Louis Kaestner on Boardwalk Empire.

It hasn’t been announced if Coleman will appear in more than a single episode of Yellowstone. However, the flashbacks are often one of the most satisfying parts of the series, filling in the characters’ backstories and explaining their foibles. Coleman’s presence will no doubt deepen that part of Yellowstone further.
