Every Upcoming Yellowstone Series & Spin-Off From Taylor Sheridan

“Yellowstone” might be over, but Taylor Sheridan and Paramount’s hit franchise is a constantly growing juggernaut that shows no signs of slowing down. With “1883” and “1923” officially done and dusted, Sheridan and his trusty colleagues are working on even more spin-offs of the hit neo-Western series, which will continue exploring the Dutton family’s present, history, and future.

As of this writing, there are five “Yellowstone” spin-offs in various stages of development. If they all go ahead as planned, we will be treated to stories set against the backdrop of historic real-world conflicts and be re-introduced to some fan-favorite characters following the events of “Yellowstone.”

One show doesn’t even feature the Duttons, which opens the door for the franchise to keep expanding after the main family’s history has been milked harder than the cows that populate their ranch. So, without further ado, here is a list of every “Yellowstone” spin-off that fans can look forward to.

Beth and Rip’s spin-off

The “Yellowstone” season 5 finale sets up Beth Dutton (Kelly Reilly) and Rip Wheeler’s (Cole Hauser) spin-off. The episode sees Beth purchase a 27,000-acre stretch of land that will allow them to make a living as ranchers moving forward. However, we all know that this pair of rascals will get into trouble again, as nothing about their lifestyle indicates that they will ever live peacefully.

Despite the potential violence that lies ahead, Beth and Rip’s spin-off — currently called “Dutton Ranch” and slated for a fall release — will presumably see the titular lovers continue their journey as parents. Toward the end of “Yellowstone,” they adopted a foul-mouthed teenager called Carter (Finn Little) and taught him how to be a cowboy. The storyline has yet to reach its full potential, however, with Carter more or less serving as a side character. In fact, his most memorable moment in “Yellowstone” season 5 is being present when Colby (Denim Richards) gets killed by a horse — an unpopular death that was truly pointless.

Beth and Rip’s spin-off also has the potential to be the “Yellowstone” franchise’s most romantic installment to date. Taylor Sheridan’s shows have their mushy moments, and this couple have yet to meet their tragic end. Granted, that could happen in the upcoming series, but maybe this will be the “Yellowstone” saga that gives its lovers a happy ending?

1944

With “1923” seemingly over following season 2’s heartbreaking finale, “1944” looks set to mark the Dutton family’s next adventure through the 20th century. Little is known about the story at this point, but the title indicates that it will be set against the backdrop of World War II.

Given that war will probably factor into the show, it’s also safe to assume that Spencer Dutton (Brandon Sklenar) will return for the spin-off. “1923” establishes him as a decorated war hero, but his battles aren’t over yet, as “Yellowstone” reveals that John Dutton’s (Kevin Costner) grandfather lost his leg while he was on duty. His limbs remain intact in “1923,” and unless Taylor Sheridan throws a surprise at us, World War II will be the cause of his grisly injury.

Thanks to the “1923” finale, we now know that Spencer is John’s grandfather, which lends weight to the theory that he’ll lose a leg in “1944.” What’s more, “1944” will likely center around him working alongside his now-adult son, John Dutton II, as they protect their land from more threats. The second-generation John will be in his early 20s during this time period, so he’s more than old enough to pick up a gun.

The Madison

“The Madison” is another spin-off whose story is shrouded in mystery. That said, we know that it will follow the McIntosh family as they cope with life in Montana after moving to the West from New York City. The story will also be set in the present day, but it remains to be seen how — or if — the main characters are connected to the Duttons. A new family also opens the door to the franchise chronicling a different bloodline throughout the centuries, but let’s not get ahead of ourselves just yet.

As is always the case with Sheridan’s shows, “The Madison” boasts an all-star cast, led by Michelle Pfeiffer. She is joined by Matthew Fox, Patrick J. Adams, Beau Garrett, Amiah Miller, and Elle Chapman, among other names. This project was also rumored to mark Matthew McConaughey’s introduction to the “Yellowstone” universe, but those plans appear to have fallen through.

However, the current ensemble is strong enough to create some compelling drama, and it will be interesting to see a “Yellowstone” show that doesn’t appear to feature any members of the Dutton family tree on board. The New York connection also implies that “The Madison” could explore the conflict between city slickers and cowboys — a theme that defines Taylor Sheridan’s Western saga.

CBS’ Kayce Dutton Spin-off

With Rip and Beth getting their own show, it was only a matter of time until Kayce Dutton (Luke Grimes) got a piece of the action as well. This “Yellowstone” spin-off about the Dutton family’s modern-day soldier is being spearheaded by Spencer Hudnut for CBS, with early reports indicating that it will be a procedural that explores the character’s Navy SEAL background.

While details about the project are being kept close to the vest, the synopsis suggests Kayce’s solo outing could be a prequel series. “Yellowstone” season 5 ends on a happy note for Kayce, with the cowboy living a peaceful ranch life alongside his wife and kid. It’s a fitting send-off for the character and his family, so unless he gets pulled back into action as a livestock agent and the show features flashbacks to his soldier days, it makes sense for the procedural element to chronicle his past.

This one is expected to arrive on CBS next year. As such, we won’t have long to wait to find out what will happen in Kayce’s next adventure.

6666

“Yellowstone” season 5 sets up the long-gestating “6666” spin-off, with the story looking set to continue the adventures of Jimmy Hudstrom (Jefferson White) on the Four Sixes Ranch in Texas. Season 5 also concludes with Teeter (Jennifer Landon) leaving Montana to graze some cattle alongside Jimmy in the Lone Star State, so viewers can expect her to be part of the festivities — if the spin-off ever happens.

As of this writing, “6666” is still on Taylor Sheridan’s agenda, but the project has been delayed due to production complications. The plan is to film the series on the real Four Sixes ranch (which Sheridan owns), but that is a tricky endeavor as it risks disrupting the property’s day-to-day real-life work. As he told The Hollywood Reporter:

“That, for a number of reasons, needs a unique level of special care because this is a real place with real families working here. You have to respect the lineage. I’ve told [the studio] to be patient.”

One downside of this series is that it will likely feature more of Sheridan’s Travis Wheatley character, who almost derailed “Yellowstone” season 5. However, Wheatley owns this ranch, and there is no way that he won’t show up to hurl more insults at Jimmy.

“I wish it was sexier than that”: Taylor Sheridan Learned a Valuable Lesson in His Most Challenging Movie Before Yellowstone.. Taylor Sheridan has become a household name thanks to the enormous success of Yellowstone and its ever-expanding universe of spin-offs, but before he was redefining the television Western, he was grinding his way through some of Hollywood’s toughest lessons. Recently, Sheridan admitted that one of his most challenging movie experiences, long before Yellowstone existed, provided him with wisdom that shaped him into the storyteller he is today. With his trademark blunt humor, he confessed, “I wish it was sexier than that,” making clear that the road to success was paved with missteps, frustrations, and a lot of trial-and-error. Sheridan’s journey is a testament to persistence. Before his name became synonymous with hit series, he was best known to audiences as an actor. Many remember his role as David Hale on Sons of Anarchy, but Sheridan often recalls the difficulty of being an actor-for-hire, constantly at the mercy of casting decisions and executives. That frustration eventually pushed him to transition into writing and directing, though the early years of that career shift were anything but glamorous. The movie in question—his so-called “most challenging project”—was not the type of Hollywood breakthrough most writers dream about. It wasn’t a high-profile studio film, nor was it an indie darling that won accolades at Sundance. Instead, it was a grueling, underfunded project that Sheridan now looks back on with a mix of humility and appreciation. What made it challenging was not just the lack of resources, but the disconnect between his creative vision and the machinery of filmmaking that often stripped away authenticity. For Sheridan, who would later build Yellowstone around authenticity to ranch life and cowboy culture, that clash was a painful but essential lesson. In his own words, Sheridan noted that the experience taught him “what not to do” more than anything else. As he attempted to find his voice as a writer and storyteller, he was confronted with the realities of production—the compromises, the meddling, and the dilution of themes he cared about. It was, by his account, deeply frustrating. And yet, it hardened him. It forced him to recognize that if he wanted to tell the kinds of stories that mattered to him, he would need to do it his own way, on his own terms. That mindset is what would later lead him to insist on creative control when developing Yellowstone for Paramount. Sheridan’s quip—“I wish it was sexier than that”—speaks to his no-nonsense personality. Fans may imagine a dramatic, cinematic origin story for a man who now commands Hollywood power, but Sheridan is quick to undercut that fantasy. His truth is less glamorous: long days, tight budgets, difficult compromises, and a lingering sense of dissatisfaction. But embedded in that struggle was the foundation for the empire he would later build. The experience shaped his philosophy about storytelling. Sheridan realized that authenticity mattered more than spectacle. His later works—Sicario, Hell or High Water, and Wind River—reflect that commitment to grounded realism, unflinching grit, and morally complex characters. Without the sting of that difficult film, he may not have pursued the stripped-down, emotionally raw style that has now become his trademark. More importantly, it taught Sheridan about resilience. In Hollywood, many careers die after a bad experience. Scripts get shelved, directors burn out, and writers compromise until their voices are unrecognizable. Sheridan chose the opposite path. Instead of giving up or bowing to pressure, he doubled down on the importance of staying true to himself. That resilience echoes in the stories he writes—characters who endure pain, fight against impossible odds, and cling to their values even when the world tells them otherwise. Yellowstone is the ultimate culmination of those lessons. The series embodies Sheridan’s belief in authenticity, from its rugged depiction of ranch life to its refusal to water down the brutality of the West. Beth Dutton’s razor-sharp wit, Rip Wheeler’s unwavering loyalty, and John Dutton’s fight to protect his land are all born of Sheridan’s insistence on telling stories with emotional truth. The massive success of Yellowstone is proof that the lessons he learned in that difficult early film were not wasted but instead transformed into a philosophy that resonates with millions of viewers. Sheridan himself acknowledges that Yellowstone would not exist without those early struggles. His “non-sexy” lesson from a failed or difficult project became the fire that fueled his drive. Every frustration became a reminder of what he never wanted to compromise again. Every disappointing choice made by others on that project reinforced his determination to be the one in charge of his own stories. By the time Paramount came knocking, Sheridan had sharpened his voice into something powerful, uncompromising, and distinctly his own. Fans often look at Sheridan now—commanding one of the most powerful storytelling empires on television—and imagine that he has always been destined for greatness. But Sheridan himself resists that narrative. He wants people to understand that failure, difficulty, and humility are part of success. His career is proof that the most important lessons often come not from triumphs but from challenges that break you down and force you to rebuild stronger.
