Taylor Sheridan's new Yellowstone sequel officially unveils its new cowgirl.

A new cowgirl character will be joining the post-Yellowstone family, set to work on a Dutton-owned ranch before the year is over. Yellowstone's spinoffs have become the core of the franchise's larger story, with Dutton family tales ranging from over 100 years ago, to the modern era after the events of the main show. As of writing, the current ongoing series in the franchise are Dutton Ranch on Paramount+, and Marshals, with season 2 currently airing on CBS. And, soon, the network TV continuation of Kayce's story will be getting a major shake-up.

A new report from TV Insider confirms Scarlett Burke is joining the cast of Marshals season 2 as Shelby Gaines. Her new character is a cowgirl who becomes involved with Kayce Dutton's East Camp ranch to help him launch a new equestrian therapy program. She'll debut in season 2, episode 8 of the show, which is set to air Sunday, November 29 at 8 p.m. ET/PT on CBS. According to the report, Shelby has a firey streak to her personality, but one that's masking a deep level of pain the show will dive into.

Marshals season 2, episode 8 will see Kayce and Cal at the forefront, contending with a diamond heist after previously getting a handle on multiple fugitives wanted around the world. The pair are also coping with their relationship with their children, which is starting to fray in recent episodes. Belle will also be trying to end her marriage, but finding out there's more challenge to the task than anticipated. In the center of all this chaos will be Shelby, who arrives at East Camp intent on working with the therapy program.

This isn't Burke's first rodeo with a Taylor Sheridan production. She previously appeared in one episode of The Madison as Michelle. She's also had guest roles in a number of high-profile TV series over the years, including Lethal Weapon, Animal Kingdom, and Ray Donovan. This will mark her next big TV role, though it's unclear just how big a role she'll have on the series. For now, though, it seems her joining to help Kayce will be a vital part of the show's equine therapy storyline and what it will entail moving ahead.
