Lioness star Dave Annable would love nothing more than to appear on Dutton Ranch — despite being killed off on Yellowstone.
“I’m such a huge fan of [Taylor Sheridan’s] Landman and I love that they just put [my costar] Michael Kelly in Landman. I don’t want to say I’m jealous but maybe I go on as his brother or maybe his uncle,” Annable, 46, exclusively told Us. “And then I gotta be honest, [I would love to join] Dutton Ranch.”
Annable reflected on his time playing Lee Dutton, adding, “I’m such a Yellowstone guy. I really learned so much and really learned to love and appreciate that world and being in Montana.”
He continued: “Basically, I’m not going to say no to anything. If Taylor is like, ‘Dave, we’re just going to put you on one episode and kill you off on Tulsa King.’ Great, I can’t wait. I’m a fan of Taylor’s as a person, as a man and as a writer. There’s nothing I wouldn’t do in that man’s universe.”
Sheridan, 56, built his TV empire starting with Yellowstone. The hit series aired from 2018 to 2024 as viewers tuned in to keep tabs on the fictional Dutton family. Sheridan branched out with original shows such as Landman, Tulsa King and Lioness.
Lioness, which airs Sundays, is a spy thriller that follows the leader of a CIA team that enlists female operatives — known as Lionesses — to go undercover in the war on terror.
The first two seasons followed Joe (Zoe Saldaña) as she recruited Cruz (Laysla De Oliveira) and Josie (Genesis Rodriguez) to go undercover. A season 2 mission put the team at risk and nearly ended in a group sacrifice. Season 3 raised the stakes even higher while jumping back and forth from the past to the present.
Annable, for his part, plays Saldaña’s onscreen husband, Neal.
“She really is that good. You watch the show and see her not only as the wife and mother but as the senior case officer in combat and being tortured. She’s just crushing it and it couldn’t happen to a better person,” he gushed to Us. “My family, we all love Zoe and we love her family, and she loves us. It’s really been this beautiful dance getting to stand across from her over these seasons.”
In season 3, Joe and Neal have found themselves struggling in their marriage due to her job, with Annable adding, “Obviously with the war coming home, it really made it very real for Neal. The real deal. He [is] now faced with his kids’ lives in danger, his life in danger and witnessing firsthand that his wife’s life is in danger.”
He continued: “Obviously that’s going to elevate any of the stakes that were there in previous seasons — or previously in their marriage. This is a whole different ball game and then with her being abducted in the present timeline, I’m not quite sure there’s anything worse. Especially the not knowing if she’s OK or not. Over these seasons, we witnessed Neal’s patience and support slowly turn into fear and and maybe putting other priorities first instead of his wife’s now.”
Lioness airs new episodes Sundays on Paramount+.
