Yellowstone fans are in for plenty of surprises in the show’s newest spinoff Marshals.
Arielle Kebbel spoke exclusively to Us Weekly about what to expect from the show — and her character Belle Skinner.
“We pull the layers back very slowly with Belle and she relates to [Luke Grimes’ character] Kayce because they’re both the local folks from Montana. Folks out there have a different way of doing things,” Kebbel teased. “We learn that she also comes from a very wealthy family — and with that comes a lot of secrets and responsibility.”
The story will continue to unravel throughout the season.
“There’s a big piece of her that is — not necessarily hiding from her past — but hiding it from other people. She is very protective of her past and her family — and also because she started her own family now. Belle doesn’t want to get her kid involved in some of the messy stuff of her past,” Kebbel teased. “As the season goes on, we learn all the reasons why she is so secretive and closed off and protective of herself and her family. We peel back the layers of what’s going on with her.”
She continued: “Both she and Kayce have a lot of secrets. They have a lot on the line and they also really want justice. Sometimes that’s a hard line to walk. So as the season goes on, we definitely learn more about her. There’s a few shocking reveals.”
Marshals, which premieres on Sunday, March 1, follows Kayce (Luke Grimes) as he leaves “ranching life behind to join an elite unit” of the U.S. Marshals while “combining his skills as a cowboy and Navy SEAL to bring range justice to Montana, where he and his teammates must balance family, duty and the high psychological cost that comes with serving as the last line of defense in the region’s war on violence.”
In addition to Kebbel and Grimes, the show stars Ash Santos, Tatanka Means, Brett Cullen and Logan Marshall Green. Marshals is the newest spinoff of Yellowstone — which aired from 2018 to 2024 — and starred Grimes.
“It’s all the same world. You have the ranch and we always incorporate and go back to that in the show. But this world is really about bringing together this new team of Marshalls. They don’t really all know each other. They’re all very different in their ways,” Kebbel teased. “It’s fun to watch how they work as a team and it’s fun to watch the personality clashes. When the show starts, it’s not a team that’s been working together before so it’s not necessarily a well oiled machine.”
Kebbel promised an evolution on screen. “Part of the fun of the journey is learning how they learn how to work together along the way. So you’ve got these Marshals going out on missions — but with the beautiful backdrop of Montana and horses and mountains and rivers,” she noted. “The closest comparison would be combining a Yellowstone with Lioness.”
Marshals also served as a reunion for Kebbel and Grimes after 50 Shades Freed.
“Our time together on that was brief but I got to know how he worked and he’s a total pro. He’s very welcoming and very kind to everyone but he also gets right to work,” Kebbel shared with Us. “I knew if I need to ask anything, he’ll absolutely guide me and be there for me. But also, he’s one of those people who really gives room for people to do their thing. It’s one of those sets where everyone knows you show up and you get to work — there’s no time to waste.”
She continued: “We’re have a lot to do every single day to make our days. Knowing that we’re going to work every day with the backdrop of the Yellowstone legacy behind us definitely adds a layer of pressure that you feel — or at least that I felt — going to set. But that’s a good thing. It was this unspoken thing where you want to always make sure you’re rising to the occasion. So I hope that we did.”
Marshals premieres on CBS March 1 and will air Sundays at 8 p.m. ET.
