On Sunday, Elliott addressed the controversy at a panel hosted by Deadline to promote"Yellowstone" prequel series"1883," saying he felt"terrible" about how his comments were received, and apologized to the director and cast.

— Deadline Hollywood April 10, 2022 "You want to talk about that piece of s**t?" he said."That's what all these f**king cowboys in that movie looked like. They're all running around in chaps and no shirts, there's all these allusions to homosexuality throughout the f**king movie." Elliott's comments drew scrutiny after the"WTF" episode was released, with Cumberbatch branding the criticism as"very odd.
