To say Octavia Spencer is a superfan might be understating the matter a bit. In fact, ET describes her as a “hardcore superfan.” It also appears that she isn’t embarrassed to, shall we say, shout it from the rooftops.

Yellowstone Spoilers – Octavia Spencer Calls ‘Yellowstone’ ‘Amazing’

The producer of the 2021 HIV documentary spoke with Matt Cohen of ET on Tuesday, November 30, about her love for the Keven Costner-led series. While at the Los Angeles premiere of her new sci-fi movie Encounter, Spencer was asked if she was a fan of the beloved series to which she responded, “Oh my gosh! Who’s not?”

“It’s amazing,” the Dinner for Schmucks star said when asked of comments she’s made of Yellowstone.

When season 4 of Yellowstone premiered, on November 7, the first two episodes were run back to back and Spencer had something to say about it. Since they kicked it off with two episodes, she said, “Does that mean you guys made 11 episodes for this season, or are we really counting down?”

Yellowstone Spoilers – Kevin Costner And Octavia Spencer Have Worked Together Before

Though it doesn’t appear, at least to ET, that she wants to get cast on Yellowstone, she does want to see where it all takes place, saying, “I’m just gonna find myself out there on their set one day.” She made sure to let everyone know, though, that she would be “masked up,” adding, “but I’m coming to visit.”

Keven Costner, who plays John Dutton on the Yellowstone series, has worked with Spencer on numerous occasions, including the 2016 drama Hidden Figures, and the 2014 family-oriented drama, Black and White. With such history, it would be surprising were she not welcomed onto the Yellowstone set with open arms – especially from Costner.

As for Spencer, she has plenty on her plate, with her new movie Encounter premiering on November 30. The new sci-fi film casts Spencer as Hattie, a parole officer, and Riz Ahmed as war veteran Malik Kahn who believes that earth is invaded by an extraterrestrial threat.
