From ‘Dutton Ranch' to ‘Y: Marshals' and beyond: Everything to know about the upcoming ‘Yellowstone' spinoffs
Yellowstone, the mega-hit neo-Western series from superproducer Taylor Sheridan, came to an end after five seasons in 2024, but the show's universe continues to expand. There are five publicly announced sequels, prequels, and spinoffs in various stages of development. They'll follow the prequels that have already aired, 1883 and 1923, as well as Sheridan's collection of non-Yellowstone shows on Paramount+, Mayor of Kingstown, Tulsa King, Lawmen, Lioness, and Landman. Here's everything we know so far about each of Sheridan's various Yellowstone expansions, from the forthcoming to the off in the distance. The most direct successor to Yellowstone is the sequel series focused on Beth Dutton (Kelly Reilly), John Dutton's (Kevin Costner) hell-raising daughter, and her husband, tough ranch foreman Rip Wheeler (Cole Hauser). While an official title has not been announced, Bloomberg reports that the project is tentatively titled Dutton Ranch, and is expected to premiere this fall on Paramount Network and stream on Paramount+. Paramount has not officially confirmed that the series is happening, so no plot details are available. Other characters from Yellowstone are expected to appear on the series, which Sheridan is developing. More from GoldDerby 'The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power' star Charlie Vickers breaks down Sauron's emotional reaction to killing Celebrimbor Netflix renews 'The Four Seasons,' 'The Diplomat,' and 'Bridgerton' for new seasons Jeremy Allen White and Austin Butler team up for 'Enemies,' Maya Hawke joins 'Hunger Games' prequel, 'Smurfs' trailer drops, and more top news In the Yellowstone series finale, Beth and Rip killed her adoptive brother, Jamie (Wes Bentley), for the crime of going against the family. With the ranch sold, they moved to Dillon, Mont., a town that tourists haven't discovered yet, to start their own ranch. Y: Marshals was officially announced in May 2025. It will likely be the spinoff that differs the most from Yellowstone. Luke Grimes will star as Kayce Dutton, John's youngest son, a Navy SEAL and a cowboy. He'll put all of his skills to work as he joins an elite unit of the U.S. Marshal Service tasked with 'bringing range justice to Montana, where he and his teammates must balance family, duty and the high psychological cost that comes with serving as the last line of defense in the region's war on violence.' Unlike the other shows in the franchise, which debut on Paramount Network or Paramount+, Y: Marshals will air on CBS on Sunday nights at 9 p.m. ET/PT in spring 2026, with episodes streaming on Paramount+ after that. And Sheridan is not the showrunner; that job will go to executive producer Spencer Hudnut, who developed the show. Hudnut previously worked as showrunner for CBS/Paramount+'s military drama SEAL Team. Sheridan's level of involvement in the series is to be determined. The budget will align with other broadcast series, not other Yellowstone shows, which can approach $20 million an episode. So far, Grimes is the only actor officially cast, and it remains to be seen if Kayce's family from Yellowstone, wife Monica (Kelsey Asbille), and son Tate (Brecken Merrill) will come with him. In the series finale of Yellowstone, Kayce engineered a deal to sell the Yellowstone Dutton Ranch to Thomas Rainwater (Gil Birmingham) and his tribe for $1.25 an acre, unwittingly fulfilling a promise his ancestor James Dutton (Tim McGraw) made to return the land to the tribe after seven generations when he bought it in 1883. As a condition of the deal, the land could never be developed, and Kayce and his family kept a small parcel of land to live on. The most enigmatic spinoff is The Madison. In 2023, during the standoff between producers and Costner that shut production on Yellowstone down for almost two years, Paramount greenlit a hazily defined present-day spinoff with Matthew McConaughey in talks to star. At one point the show was given the working title 2024, and McConaughey never signed on. Eventually, the idea evolved into The Madison, which was formally announced in 2024. The Madison is described as 'a heartfelt study of grief and human connection following a New York City family in the Madison River valley of central Montana.' Academy Award nominee Michelle Pfeiffer leads the cast as family matriarch Stacy Clyburn, and the show also features Patrick J. Adams, Matthew Fox, Elle Chapman, Beau Garrett, Amiah Miller, Ben Schnetzer, Kevin Zegers, Rebecca Spence, Alaina Pollack, and Danielle Vasinova. It's created by Sheridan and directed by Yellowstone's cinematographer-turned-director Christina Alexandra Voros. The season was filmed from September to December 2024 in Montana and Texas. Since then, news about The Madison has been scarce. A premiere date has not been set. The series will stream on Paramount+, but it's unclear if it will also air on Paramount Network. It's unknown how The Madison relates to Yellowstone, or if a connection to Yellowstone is still part of the show's concept. Sheridan tends to keep this information close to the vest, so we'll find out when he's ready to tell us. After 1883 and 1923 comes 1944. Like the other prequel series, Paramount+'s 1944 will tell the story of what happened in the Dutton family in the titular year. The series was ordered in 2023 and officially announced as the next prequel coming to air during the series finale of 1923. While no plot details for 1944 have been announced, the show will surely deal with the effects of World War II on the Yellowstone Dutton Ranch, and could potentially feature an older version of 1923's Spencer Dutton, who Brandon Sklenar played on that series. 6666 — pronounced 'four sixes' — is the longest-simmering spinoff. It was announced as being in development in February 2021, around the same time that 1883, the first spinoff, was announced. 6666 is to be set at the 6666 Ranch, a historic real-life ranch in Texas that Sheridan partially owns. Portions of Yellowstone Seasons 4 and 5 took place at the ranch. Ranch hand Jimmy Hurdstrom (Jefferson White) went there to work and learned that everything is bigger in Texas. Jimmy seemed to be the way into the spinoff, but nothing has panned out so far. It remains to be seen if 6666 ever comes to fruition. The official series description was released in 2021: 'Founded when Comanches still ruled West Texas, no ranch in America is more steeped in the history of the West than the 6666. Still operating as it did two centuries before, and encompassing an entire county, the 6666 is where the rule of law and the laws of nature merge in a place where the most dangerous thing one does is the next thing. … The 6666 is synonymous with the merciless endeavor to raise the finest horses and livestock in the world, and ultimately where world class cowboys are born and made.'

Jeremy Renner 'offered half salary' after snow plough accident
Jeremy Renner turned down an "insult" offer of "half" his salary to film a second series of 'Hawkeye' after his snow plough accident. The actor almost lost his life back in 2023 when he was crushed by a snow plough and he underwent multiple surgeries and months of rehabilitation in bid to get back on his feet - and he has now claimed bosses at Disney Plus offered him a dismal amount to return to the screen after the horrific accident so he turned it down. During an appearance on the 'High Performance' podcast, Renner explained: "They asked me to do season two, and they offered me half the money. "I'm like, wow, it's going to take me twice the amount of work for half the amount of money - eight months of my time, essentially, and you do it for half the amount? "I'm like, 'I'm sorry, why? Did you think I'm only half the Jeremy because I got ran over?' Is that why want to pay me half of what I made on the first season?" He went on to add: "And this is not Marvel. My juice is like this Disney - not even really Disney, it's just the penny pinchers, the accountants. "I told him to go fly a kite at the insult offer. And so we didn't see eye to eye on it, sadly. I still love the character, I would still love to do it, but I had to defend myself. "I didn't ask for any more money, mind you. Just pay me what you paid me the first season. So it's a little disheartening that didn't happen, but that's fine. "I'm happy to let that go, because my body's probably thanking me that I'm not doing that right now." The 'Mayor of Kingstown' actor broke 38 bones in his body after being crushed by the snowplough and though he still experiences lingering discomfort, he previously insisted he doesn't mind the pain because it is "awesome" just to be alive. He told People magazine: "My swollen ankles, my back that keeps going out or my jaw that just can't seem to bite down right, it's a great reminder of an attitude that got me to here in the first place. "It's awesome. This is why I can't have a bad day. I know what a bad day feels like."
