Taylor Sheridan’s second Yellowstone prequel is changing its name from 1932 to 1923. The official announcement cites the reason as due to wanting to move the timeframe to include the end of World War I in 1918 as well as the start of Prohibition in 1920. Both topics will be addressed in the Yellowstone origin story.
Paramount+ previously announced Oscar-winner Helen Mirren (The Queen) and Oscar nominee Harrison Ford (the Star Wars and Indiana Jones franchises) will star in 1923. The streaming service’s update didn’t include any details on who either big-name actor will be playing.
The official synopsis: “1923 focuses on the Dutton family’s next two generations as they struggle to survive historic drought, lawlessness and prohibition, and an epidemic of cattle theft; all battled beneath the cloud of Montana’s great depression, which preceded the nation by almost a decade.”
Taylor Sheridan, John Linson, Art Linson, David C. Glasser, Ron Burkle, Bob Yari, and Ben Richardson will executive produce. MTV Entertainment Studios, 101 Studios and Bosque Ranch Productions are producing.
1923 is expected to premiere in December 2022.
The first Yellowstone prequel, 1883 starring real-life spouses Tim McGraw and Faith Hill, is Paramount+’s most-watched title. The prequel has been greenlit for a second season, however the streaming service hasn’t announced a targeted premiere date.
