"I don't want you to leave. I want you to dig." In honor of Kevin Costner's birthday and the launch of our new YouTube channel, we're throwing it back to this epic moment from season 3. Don't mess with John Dutton.

#Yellowstone #ParamountNetwork

Kevin Costner waited his whole life to play this role, and he nailed it.

"If I did this to your home, what would you do?" Such a simple question and yet most criminals never asked themselves.

[madmex]

The way he says “I don’t want you to leave. I want you to dig” is so freaking chilling. I would’ve shat my pants right there.

Can we take a minute to recognize the great acting by the lead biker? When John said "We keep our promises here" his breathing changed immediately. Top skill acting

[tacticalochoa]

No matter how tough and intimidating you make yourself look to others, there's always someone out there that's genuinely more dangerous and scary than you.

[michaelryan]

The truly scary thing about growing up in the deep country is you realize that you can get away with almost anything when there isn't another soul for 20 miles in any direction.

Love how John takes his time with each response. You know each one is calculated. It’s chilling when a man thinks it through bc then you know he means it

Biker: “I have children..”

John: “So do I. By the looks of what I’ve seen, yours would be better off without you.” 😂👏🏽

[magetaaaaaa]

Lol, when they walked up and saw him sitting there they should have known right away that they were walking into a bad deal.

The way the tactical light slowly comes over his left eye as he says "I want you to dig", that's just brilliant directing!!!

[enshk]

It is all the subtle things that Costner so wonderfully brings to his character.
Like when he says the one liner about the biker’s kids: “they’d be better off without you.” (03:14).
He immediately kind of regrets saying something that harsh and looks away.

He pulls off this depth of being absolutely stone cold and genuinely tough, yet radiating a warmth and heart underneath all of that.
You understand why everyone is so loyal to him.

Kevin Costner doesn't get enough credit, he is simply amazing, I remember when I was kid watching dances with wolves and he was instantly my favorite person. He's done so many great movie's and played many great characters. Legend

"You see, in this world there are two kinds of people. Those with loaded guns, and those who dig. You dig."

[briansprinkle]

wow...Costner is so believable playing this character... When he said "dig" it gave me the willies... fantastic performance by a fantastic actor that is getting better with age.

[camerondouglas]

When the tactical lights come on, John’s expression changes and his eyes fill with menace. Solid work by Costner.

[SmuggiNOLA]

"Now youse can't leave"

I'll never forget the looks on their faces...

[gavinmasterson]

“I don’t want you to leave. I want you to dig.” 👍🏻

[MKasbati]

The script for Kevin Costner for this scene was absolutely “dead on” !

[matthewkuchinski]

John Dutton is one fascinating character, vying between a caring family man and a cold-blooded killer. His ability to run a legitimate business with a criminal mastermind mentality is one of the most chilling elements of his personality, as the seem to blend together right in this scene.
