Home Yellow Stone THR reports that Sheridan is returning to movies, with F.A.S.T. having now landed at Warner Bros. The film is on the fast track, with a theatrical release date already set for April 23, 2027. Brandon Sklenar, who stars as Spencer Dutton on 1923 has been tapped to play the lead, with frequent 1923 director Ben Richardson set to direct in his feature film debut. The synopsis for the movie is as follows: F.A.S.T. concerns a former special forces commando, down on his luck after he returns Stateside, who is tapped by the DEA to lead a black op strike team against CIA-protected drug dealers in his town. Sheridan wrote the script for F.A.S.T. back in the mid-2010s and was once attached to direct with Chris Pratt starring. The film was in development at Warners for a number of years, but its expected budget of $60 million to $70 million put it in an awkward space between the company’s theatrical and streaming goals for what was then HBO Max. After a stint at Amazon before the rights lapsed, it’s now back at Warner Bros. The THR report notes that F.A.S.T.‘s budget has not yet been set, but it will likely be less than $65 million. In addition to having written the script, Sheridan is also in talks to produce alongside Jenny Wood of Bosque Ranch Productions, with David Heyman and Jeffrey Clifford of Heyday Films also producing. Warner Bros. Motion Picture Group’s Michael De Luca and Pam Abdy shared a statement about F.A.S.T., which is included below: What This Means For Taylor Sheridan The Yellowstone Creator’s Movie History Explained Sheridan still remains immensely busy in the world of TV. Though Yellowstone ended last year and 1923 season 2 brought the prequel to a close last month, the world of the show is set to live on in the form of several new spinoffs, including The Madison, a 1944 prequel, and a series focused on Kayce Dutton (Luke Grimes). F.A.S.T., however, marks a return for Sheridan to an earlier era of his career, which was defined by work in the feature film space.

The star was also recently a highlight of Drop (2025), a Blumhouse thriller that earned positive reviews.

It remains to be seen how F.A.S.T. will compare to past Sheridan movies, but it has the makings of an exciting new project in the careers of all involved.

“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.
