The second season premiere of 1923 paid tribute to the late Cole Brings Plenty, who was found dead last April in Kansas. He was 27.
The season 2 premiere begins with an In Memoriam photo of Brings Plenty, the nephew of Yellowstone star Mo Brings Plenty who played Pete Plenty Clouds for two episodes in the drama’s freshman season. Brings Plenty also appeared in docudrama Into the Wild Frontier and The Tall Tales of Jim Bridger.
Before his death, Brings Plenty had gone missing after he was declared wanted by the Lawrence Police Department on allegations of domestic violence. Mo Brings Plenty and fellow Yellowstone star Cole Hauser asked for help finding him via social media.
The Johnson County Sheriff’s Office in Kansas released this statement last spring: “On April 5, 2024, at approximately 11:45 a.m., deputies were dispatched to the area of the 200th and Homestead Lane in reference to an unoccupied vehicle. Deputies checked the area and discovered a deceased male in a wooded area away from the vehicle. The deceased male has been identified as Cole Brings Plenty, 27. Investigations, Crime Scene Investigators and the Medical Examiner are on scene.”
No cause of death was revealed.
In the new season, Jeremy Gauna (American Primeval) is playing Pete Plenty Clouds. He makes his debut in the season 2 premiere.
