You just can’t keep the Dutton family down: Paramount Network announced Thursday that two new Yellowstone spinoffs have been officially ordered with the working titles 1944 and 2024.
1944 is the latest in a run of prequels created by Yellowstone writer/director Taylor Sheridan. As for 2024, no plot details are currently available, other than it’s expected to begin following the conclusion of the flagship Yellowstone series. According to Variety, the contemporary spinoff will feature new cast members and locations, with crossover characters mixed in as well. As previously reported, Matthew McConaughey is set to saddle up for this modern-day rodeo.
“Within five years, we grew Yellowstone from a hit U.S. cable show with five million viewers into a global hit franchise with over 100 million fans around the world and multiple extensions – and, we’re just getting started,” said President/CEO, Showtime & MTV Entertainment Studios Chris McCarthy in a statement. “On the heels of 1883 and 1923’s success, our new planned spinoffs, 1944 and 2024, will take audiences on a thrilling, new and unexpected journey with the complex and compelling storytelling that has become a hallmark of the franchise and has helped turn it into a worldwide cultural phenomenon – thanks to the creative mastermind of Taylor Sheridan.”
Yellowstone chronicles the Dutton family who controls the largest contiguous cattle ranch in the United States. “Amid shifting alliances, unsolved murders, open wounds and hard-earned respect, the ranch is in constant conflict with those it borders — an expanding town, an Indian reservation and vicious business rivalries,” reads its official description.
1883, the franchise’s first spinoff, starred Sam Elliott, Tim McGraw and Faith Hill, and wrapped its limited series run on February 27, 2022. 1923 followed shortly after, starring Harrison Ford and Helen Mirren. Its eight-episode first season concluded February 26, 2003, and that same month, it was renewed for Season 2. Both prequels were released on Paramount+.
Excited to spend time with more Dutton family members? Shout your excitement in the comments!
Both 1993 and 1923 were outstanding. Dare I say, even better than Yellowstone in some ways.
Why call it 2024 & not leave it as Yellowstone?
Probably so they don’t have to pay a dime to Kevin Costner.
Probably so they don’t have to pay a dime to Kevin Costner in syndication. If it happens. That’s what I meant to say.
No, I believe it’s so that they don’t have to air it on Paramount but can air it only on Paramount+ and don’t have to air it on Peacock, which they have a deal for the original series.
Also so Paramount+ will have the streaming rights instead of Peacock. Peacock has the streaming rights to Yellowstone so if they keep that title Peacock continues having rights to the new episodes. If they make a spin-off that’s a new show which Peacock doesn’t have the rights to.
*1883 😝
I got hooked with 1883 while visiting family and had to get Paramount for a while to watch the last few episodes, also liked 1923 but I just can’t get into Yellowstone. Probable will get Paramount plus again for these new shows and seasons when they air.
All the spinoffs are great. We should get Yellowstone to continue with the cast minus J Dutton. One person does not make this show a hit – the entire cast is great together. Not happy we are going to lose all this for one person to leave the show.
They’d have to keep paying him his producer credit. 2024 will, essentially, be a continuation, just without him.
It’s also possible that this might be happening because of streaming rights. Unless I’m mistaken, At present, Peacock has rights to air Yellowstone due to a previous deal with Universal. Any new show that’s named something else (even with the same or similar characters) wouldn’t be bound to that agreement. These new shows can go exclusively to Paramount +. At least, that’s my understanding.
It’s 100% streaming rights, even if there wasn’t issues with writing and actors.
I understand why Yellowstone is ending, Paramount+ wants it. However calling it 2024 is a terrible idea. If it continues for several years will it be called 2025, 2026, 2027?
That’s probably just a pre-production title to help distinguish it from the other shows and the original until they come up with an actual title
“1923” ended season 1 on February 26, 2023.
I am very disappointed in the decision to cancel Joe
Pickett .
is the spinoff 6666 still coming out?
Extremely disappointed that it will be yet another year before we can watch the rest of season 5. I don’t think I will waste any more time waiting for the conclusion of
season 5,
” Yellowstone ”
Won’t be tuning in for this 😕
💖Definitely looking forward to all the new ones you have lined up. Just remember some of us are not getting younger…
Please don’t make us wait forever to see the new spin-offs…
Absolutely LOVED 1883 and 1923
💖💖💖💖💖
I need more 1923 stat!! That cliffhanger at the end of episode 8 still kills me every time I think about it.
They probably remane it to 2025 by the time it airs. Also looking forward to when we have spinoff for every decade ending with 2053
Like your Yellowstone notes. But where and when is 2023 playing? Did you give any heads up about it. Can ya dedicate a blurb on 2023 as you go thru all other prequels?
I really love this show and waiting for next chapter of seasen 5.
Thanks for this great news.
Very good news! Love the Dutton family.
What has happened to the story about the lion hunter? The last I knew was that he was trying to get back to Montana and was arrested on a cruise ship. Does anyone know if they will continue his story?
Yellowstone is such a great series, I HATE to see it come to an end especially with the “why” it’s having such an abrupt ending!! I truly believe that Kevin Costner is one of the best actors in our time, other than “Water World” (at least I think that’s what it was called, lol) was a flop. Yes, I understand the actors wanting to get paid more money per episode because I cannot imagine how grueling it must be shooting in the weather they have to shoot in, but come on!!
And I’m also SURE we do not know all the details on why Mr. Costner is leaving the show, but again…..come on!!! Even though I really love the spinoffs, Yellowstone and it’s cast is my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE!!!! Anyways, Mr. Costner PLEASE RECONSIDER AND STAY WITH THE YELLOWSTONE CAST A LITTLE LONGER!!!! Ok my “rant” is over and I can at least HOPE we’ll see Mr. Costner for a Season 6 and 7!!
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
a 2024 series without kevin costner. Im betting on his death in yellowstone 2023.
i also think some of the current cast could slide into 2024 show.
There’s nothing like it. Awesome all sequels. Love them
I really hate it and it’s taking so long to get a new episode of Yellowstone. I heard too many sources that it was Kevin Costner who is not ready to do another show. Unless it was a physical problem I don’t understand why he couldn’t be there. If it’s a disagreement with the writers so what, your fan should be more important Kevin. I will be so glad to see 2024 start as far as series goes because we have waited long enough! Thank you Taylor Sheridan for the wonderful storylines that you have put out! for us
Can’t you get a real actor for new yellowstone instead of Matthew McConaughey ?
