While it is clear that Randall and Kevin will be with each other at the beginning of the order This is us Season 5, it’s possible that the brothers will eventually reconcile. At the end of the fourth season finale, there was a brief flash-forward to the distant future. Older versions of Randall and Kevin visited Rebecca on her deathbed. Then, at one point, Kevin placed his hand on his brother’s shoulder.
Well, we know This is us has two more seasons left since the NBC series was renewed until season six. So even if Randall and Kevin reconcile with the flash-forward sequence, what does that mean for their relationship in the short term? In August 2020, Brown – who received an Emmy nomination for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series – appeared on Deadline’s Contenders Television: The Nominees event, and he replied Randall and Kevin would not dislike each other.
“The relationship has been complicated from the beginning,” Brown said. “They will continue as a yo-yo – will come apart and together, separately and together.”

The actor also speculated Randall and Kevin will have other things to worry about when This is us reaches the farthest future line.
“I think by the time we reach that point in the future, there are other things on their minds that they are able to focus on in order to put the differences aside,” Brown said. “But the next two or so many seasons that we are, I think you will keep watching these brothers and then resolve, fury and resolve.”
Meanwhile, Hartley also has hopes for Randall and Kevin as the NBC drama progresses. Although it will be something “big” for the brothers to make changes.
“Hopefully, something happens that brings them back together,” Hartley told the Daily News in June 2020. “It should be pretty big. Maybe that’s what we’re looking for.”
