Taylor Sheridan’s latest Yellowstone iteration is coming into focus, with Michelle Pfeiffer, Kurt Russell and Suits vet Patrick J. Adams nearing deals to star, TVLine has learned exclusively.
The offshoot, formerly known as 2024 but now tentatively titled The Madison, is rumored to follow wealthy matriarch Stacy Clyburn and her family as they leave New York City and head to Montana in the wake of her husband and brother-in-law’s tragic deaths in a plane crash.
The series’ ensemble, which is still being finalized, is also poised to include Beau Garrett (The Good Doctor, Firefly Lane). Casting for a number of supporting roles is ongoing.
Production on the spinoff is slated to begin later this month in Montana, New York and Texas. It’s expected to premiere sometime in 2025 following the conclusion of the mothership’s Season 5B, which kicks off on Sunday, Nov. 10.
Last fall, Paramount Network ordered to series the then-titled 2024, a Yellowstone sequel that was to star Matthew McConaughey and possibly feature Kelly Reilly, Cole Hauser and Luke Grimes reprising their roles of Beth Dutton, Rip Wheeler and Kayce Dutton. It’s unclear whether Russell will be assuming the role that McConaughey was supposed to play or taking on a new character entirely.
A Paramount Network rep declined to comment for this story.
