The Yellowstone universe continues to grow. Taylor Sheridan’s latest Yellowstone spinoff, tentatively titled The Madison, is starting to take shape, with a few big names set to join the cast. But what’s the newest spinoff about and who is starring in The Madison?
Yellowstone Spinoff Cast: Who’s Starring in The Madison?
TVLine is reporting that Michelle Pfeiffer, Kurt Russell, and Patrick J. Adams are all closing on deals to star in the latest show in the Yellowstone universe. The show is rumored to follow wealthy matriarch Stacy Clyburn and her family after they leave New York and head to Montana after her husband and brother-in-law tragically die in a plane crash.
More people are expected to join the ensemble cast, but one of the names expected to start in the show is Beau Garret. Production is set to start as soon as late August, in Montana, New York, and Texas, with the show set to premiere sometime in 2025 after the mothership concludes Season 5B. That is set to premiere on Sunday, November 10.
Paramount ordered The Madison to series last fall, though it was then called 2024. Matthew McConaughey was attached to star when the series was first announced, and Kelly Reilly, Cole Hauser, and Luke Grimes were expected to reprise their roles of Beth Dutton, Rip Wheeler, and Kayce Dutton. It is unclear yet if Russell will be taking over the role McConaughey was going to play, or if the show has been retooled completely with a new cast. It is also unclear if the characters from Yellowstone who were originally rumored to appear in the show will still do so.
“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,” President/CEO, Showtime & MTV Entertainment Studios Chris McCarthy said in a statement last fall. “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 is Paramount Network’s drama series following the Dutton family, the owners of the Yellowstone Dutton Ranch, also known as “The Yellowstone,” aka the largest ranch in Montana. The series premiered in 2018 and stars Kevin Costner as patriarch John Dutton III. The series Yellowstone is basically a family drama about the issues at the ranch with the nearby Broken Rock Indian Reservation, wealthy land developers, and more. Yellowstone will end with Season 5, and the show will somehow wrap up without Kevin Costner’s John Dutton III. The actor announced he was leaving the series earlier this year.
Season 5 Part 2 of Yellowstone will premiere in November 2024 and all episodes can be streamed on Peacock.
