'1923' Season 2 Pays Tribute to Brings Plenty

The second season premiere of the Yellowstone prequel '1923' paid tribute to late actor Cole Brings Plenty, who played Pete Plenty Clouds. Brings Plenty, the nephew of Yellowstone actor Mo Brings Plenty, passed away at 27 after being reported missing and subsequently found dead in Kansas in April 2024. His death was investigated, and authorities found no signs of foul play, though his family has expressed concerns about the investigation's thoroughness. The premiere featured an 'In Memoriam' tribute to the actor, and his character was recast with Jeremy Gauna stepping into the role. Brings Plenty was remembered fondly by his co-stars, particularly Aminah Nieves, who noted his passion for the role and the impact he had on the set. Despite the tragedy, the series continues with Gauna portraying Pete, as the show honors Brings Plenty's contributions.
