1923 season 2 will be the end of the Yellowstone prequel, and here’s what it means for Taylor Sheridan’s Yellowstone franchise. Premiering February 23 on Paramount+, 1923 season 2 continues the saga of Jacob Dutton (Harrison Ford) and Cara Dutton (Helen Mirren) defending their Montana ranch from adversaries keen on taking their land. Meanwhile, Spencer Dutton (Brandon Sklenar) hurries home from Africa to help his family wage war, despite being separated from his new English bride, Alexandra (Julia Schlaepfer).

Yellowstone, Taylor Sheridan’s present-day-set neo-Western starring Kevin Costner as John Dutton III, became one of the biggest shows on television throughout its five seasons on the Paramount Network. Yellowstone’s success spawned a franchise detailing the history of the Dutton clan in Montana, starting with the prequel 1883, which streamed on Paramount+ for one season. 1923 picks up the Duttons’ story 40 years later. Yellowstone also sparked a growing franchise of TV shows on Paramount+ executive produced by Taylor Sheridan, including Mayor of Kingstown, Tulsa King, and Landman.

1923 season 2 is also the final season of Harrison Ford and Helen Mirren’s Yellowstone prequel. 1923 was designed by Taylor Sheridan to run for two seasons of eight episodes each. After 1923 season 1’s successful December 2022 premiere, Paramount+ renewed 1923 for season 2 on February 2023 with the actors returning to wrap up this chapter of the Yellowstone Dutton Ranch in Montana.
