Michelle Pfeiffer is officially set to star in the next Yellowstone spinoff, Madison, formerly titled 2024. Paramount announced the series and its star on August 8, confirming that Madison and 2024 will not be two separate series as previously rumored.
Produced by MTV Entertainment Studios, 101 Studios and Bosque Ranch Productions, Madison is the next installment from the Yellowstone universe and Taylor Sheridan. Pfeiffer will star and executive produce. The Yellowstone spinoff set in the modern day.
Suits alum Patrick J. Adams and Kurt Russell are also names rumored to be attached to the series, though that casting still remains a rumor. Here’s the latest on the new series.
What is Yellowstone‘s Madison about?
Paramount describes Madison as a heartfelt study of grief and human connection following a New York City family in the Madison River valley of central Montana.
“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.”
Madison is executive produced by Sheridan, David C. Glasser, John Linson, Art Linson, Ron Burkle, Bob Yari, David Hutkin, Christina Voros, Michael Friedman, Pfeiffer, and Keith Cox. Previous reports about Pfeiffer’s reported character name were not confirmed with today’s announcement.

Yellowstone‘s Madison Cast
MTV Entertainment Studios, which produces Yellowstone with 101 Studios, has not confirmed any of the casting rumors. But TVLine previously reported that Pfeiffer had been in talks to star in Madison since February and Russell since June. Adams is also said to be part of the mix.
Madison reportedly centers Stacy Clyburn (presumably Pfeiffer’s role), who moves her family out to Montana from New York City after her husband and brother-in-law are killed in a plane crash. The Good Doctor‘s Beau Garrett is also rumored to be part of the cast.
Puck News, an industry newsletter that has long reported on Yellowstone updates as it pertained to the reported Kevin Costner and Taylor Sheridan feud and beyond, previously speculated that 2024 and Madison would be two separate spinoffs both set in the present day.
Yellowstone‘s Madison Premiere Date
Paramount did not announce a premiere date on August 8 nor did it give an update on when production will begin, but production on Madison is reportedly beginning in later in August 2024 in Montana, NYC, and Texas (1923 Season 2 is currently filming in Austin).
TVLine reports that it could premiere in 2025 after Yellowstone Season 5 Part 2, its final season, finishes airing on Paramount Network. Season 5 Part 2 is currently in production in Montana and will premiere Sunday, November 10 at 9/8c.
Will Yellowstone‘s Original Cast Be in Madison?
2024 got a series order in Fall 2023 from Paramount and was reportedly going to feature appearances from original Yellowstone cast members Kelly Reilly, Cole Hauser, and Luke Grimes. Matthew McConaughey was attached to star. There is no update on whether or not Reilly, Hauser, and Grimes will appear in 2024 or Madison.
