Yellowstone fans probably have some mixed emotions right now. While Yellowstone season 5 is set to be the finale of the hit western series, the franchise is going to continue with a handful of spinoffs. One of which we now know is going to be titled The Madison.
Taylor Sheridan's next story in the Yellowstone universe is going to be a present-day story set in a different part of Montana and with new characters. It's not the only one in the works though, as another spinoff is in the works that is expected continue be a continuation of the main Yellowstone series (with possibly some characters continuing on) and another prequel, 1944, in the same vein as 1883 and 1923.
As the info on The Madison starts to come in, read on below to catch up on it all.
The Madison release date
There is no official release date for The Madison at this time, though according to The Hollywood Reporter it is expected to be the next new series to premiere in the Yellowstone universe.
It's also unclear if The Madison would air on Paramount Network like Yellowstone has throughout its run, or if it would become a Paramount Plus original series like other Sheridan-created shows in recent years, including Mayor of Kingstown, Tulsa King, the upcoming Landman and the Yellowstone prequels.
The Madison plot
The Madison looks to follow an entirely new story and characters, while presumably still occupying the same universe as the Duttons.
According to reports, the series is centered around a New York City family that moves to the Madison River valley of central Montana and is described as a "heartfelt study of grief an human connection."
The Madison cast
The lead of The Madison has been announced, and it is none other than three-time Oscar-nominated actress Michelle Pfeiffer.
"Michelle Pfeiffer is a remarkable talent who imbues every role with emotional depth, authenticity and grace," said Chris McCarthy, Paramount Global Co-CEO and President/CEO, Showtime & MTV Entertainment Studios. "She is the perfect anchor to the newest chapter of the Yellowstone universe, Madison, from the brilliant mind of Taylor Sheridan."
Pfeiffer's probably still best known for playing Catwoman in Tim Burton's Batman Returns, though she earned her Oscar nominations for performances in Dangerous Liasions, The Fabulous Baker Boys and Love Field. She is also known for starring in Scarface, Hairspray, Murder on the Orient Express and, most recently, Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania. She also recently starred in the TV series The First Lady.
A few other cast members have been announced for the sequel series: Suits star Patrick J. Adams is going to play Russell McIntosh, an investment banker who has always followed the life path set before him; Elle Chapman (A Man Called Otto) is playing Paige McIntosh, a "somewhat self-centered woman who indulges in a luxurious New York lifestyle provided by her parents and investment banker husband;" and Beau Garrett (Firefly Lane) as Abigail Reese, a "resilient and sardonic New Yorker, who is a recently divorced mother of two."
As of August 26, Deadline has confirmed another cast member joining The Madison: Lost star Matthew Fox, who will play the role of Paul, a self-reliant bachelor who loves the outdoors.
