Yellowstone Spinoff The Madison Adds 4 New Casts (Including One From 1923)

what happened to John Dutton after Kevin Costner's exit from the series. Voros will also be stepping behind the camera for The Madison, which stars three-time Oscar nominee Michelle Pfeiffer.

In an interview with Variety, Voros explained the connection between Yellowstone and The Madison, noting the key common thread is the landscape since both series take place in Montana. Still, in the quote below, the director notes that the spinoff is a new story told through a different lens. Read Voros' full comments below:

It’s such a different story. The common ground is the landscape. We are in Montana, but it is seen through a completely different lens, so it feels like another facet of this cut stone that has been polished. There are parallels in the scope of landscape and a human being’s place in that space, but it’s coming at it from a completely different point of view.

What The Madison Spinoff Means For Yellowstone

It's Another Big Cast For The Taylor Sheridan Franchise

Official reports describe The Madison as “a heartfelt study of grief and human connection.” The story focuses on a New York family in the Madison River valley of central Montana, but little else is confirmed outside that general logline. The Madison also stars Lost alum Matthew Fox, Suits star Patrick J. Adams, Beau Garrett, Amiah Miller, and Elle Chapman. There are also reports that veteran actor Kurt Russell is ing the project, though that has not yet been officially announced.

Though it may be loosely connected by story or theme, early reports indicate viewers won't have to follow Yellowstone to enjoy The Madison.

The spinoff is aiming for a 2025 release date, with franchise creator Taylor Sheridan, Voros, and Pfeiffer among the executive producers. The project, which hails from MTV Entertainment Studios, 101 Studios, and Bosque Ranch Productions, looks to be in the vein of Sheridan's various spinoffs. Though it may be loosely connected by story or theme, early reports indicate viewers won't have to follow Yellowstone to enjoy The Madison.

The main Western series is in a bit of an uncertain state, with Yellowstone season 6 rumored but so far unconfirmed.
