Kelly Reilly on Playing Beth Dutton

Kelly Reilly has done a fantastic job portraying Beth Dutton on Yellowstone. She takes her role as Beth seriously, always giving it her all.

“It was my biggest challenge. Every actor regardless of your own insecurity or whether you believe you can do it or not, feels that challenge. I responded so primally, so viscerally to the scripts. I really entered this character. I had a reaction, it wasn’t an intellectual one, it was in my body. I loved how Taylor wrote her. I knew immediately this was a storm of a woman who wasn’t just one thing. That resonated with me.”

She went on to say “I’m in my forties, I understand the complexities of myself, and to see that being enjoyed and leaned into, even though she’s so different from me in so many ways resonated with me,” Reilly told Awards Daily in regards to the challenge of playing Beth.

Does Kelly Reilly Change Her Voice for Beth Dutton?

Kelly Reilly is actually British, so when she plays Beth Dutton she talks in her American accent. In fact, in the beginning, she barely talked to the cast outside filming because she didn’t want to sound foolish talking with an American accent.

As a seasoned actress, Reilly is careful to never break from her American accent. She even worked with a dialect to perfect her accent as Beth.

Reilly joked in the interview with Jefferson White, who plays Jimmy, that people probably thought she was super unfriendly, even though it was just part of the process of becoming Beth.

“I hardly spoke to anybody. It’s not about breaking character. You hear those stories about actors staying in their dialect off-camera. I would admire them, but I’d feel like an idiot speaking [to the cast and crew] in my American accent. I couldn’t make peace with that, it’s just bananas. So it was easier to just not talk, and not let anyone know me for about two seasons,” Reilly said on The Official Yellowstone Podcast.
