It’s been quite a journey for Kelly Reilly, hasn’t it? After six years of bringing the fierce Beth Dutton to

life, she’s now set to embark on a new adventure that’s got TV lovers buzzing. As Yellowstone prepares

to wrap up its final season this November, Reilly isn’t wasting any time – she’s already saddled up for her

next big role.

A New Horizon: Under Salt Marsh

Word on the street is that Reilly’s traded in Montana’s sprawling ranches for the moody coastlines of Wales. She’s set to star in “Under Salt Marsh,” a Sky Original series that’s got all the makings of your next binge-worthy obsession.

Picture this: a sleepy Welsh town called Morfa Halen, where the sea mist rolls in thick and secrets run even deeper. Reilly steps into the shoes of Jackie Ellis, a former detective turned teacher. It’s all quiet on the western front until a storm hits, and suddenly, Jackie’s world is turned upside down when one of her young students is found dead.

“At the heart of it all is Jackie, a character who embodies the wildness of the place we’re depicting. She’s free-spirited, compassionate, and determined, with a steely resolve that makes her truly of the land.”

That’s how Claire Oakley, the show’s mastermind, describes Reilly’s new character. And let’s be honest, doesn’t it sound like the perfect fit for the woman who brought Beth Dutton to life?

From Dutton Drama to Welsh Intrigue

Now, I don’t know about you, but I can’t help but draw some parallels here. Beth Dutton and Jackie Ellis? Both tough-as-nails women navigating treacherous waters (though in Jackie’s case, that might be a bit more literal). It’s like Reilly’s taking all that raw energy from Yellowstone and channeling it into a whole new mystery.

And speaking of Yellowstone, Reilly hasn’t forgotten her roots. In a recent chat, she spilled a little tea about her hopes for Beth’s final bow:

“Peace, I think. As possible as it is for any of us. Peace requires some digging and some surrender and letting go of old pains and hurts.”

Sounds like Beth might be in for some soul-searching, doesn’t it? But then again, when hasn’t she been?

What’s Next for Kelly Reilly?

As we gear up to say goodbye to Beth Dutton, it’s clear that Reilly’s star is only rising. “Under Salt Marsh” is set to start filming later this year, and I don’t know about you, but I’m already counting down the days.

Will Jackie Ellis be as memorable as Beth Dutton? Only time will tell. But one thing’s for sure – with Kelly Reilly at the helm, we’re in for one heck of a ride.

So here’s to new beginnings, Welsh mysteries, and the unstoppable force that is Kelly Reilly. Yellowstone may be riding off into the sunset, but something tells me we’ve only seen the beginning of what this incredible actress has to offer.
