Michelle Pfeiffer‘s Yellowstone spinoff, The Madison, formerly titled 2024, has added Lost alum Matthew Fox in a lead role. He joins previously announced stars Patrick J. Adams, Firefly Lane alum Beau Garrett, Amiah Miller, and newcomer Elle Chapman.
Paramount previously confirmed that The Madison and 2024 will not be two separate series as had been rumored.
Produced by MTV Entertainment Studios, 101 Studios and Bosque Ranch Productions, The Madison is the next installment from the Yellowstone universe and Taylor Sheridan. Pfeiffer will star and executive produce. The series is set in the modern day.
Kurt Russell has also been rumored to be attached to the series, though that casting still remains speculation. Here’s the latest on the new series.
What is Yellowstone‘s The Madison about?
Paramount describes The 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 when her casting was announced. “She is the perfect anchor to the newest chapter of the Yellowstone universe, Madison, from the brilliant mind of Taylor Sheridan.”
The 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 The Madison Cast
The Madison centers on Pfeiffer as far Stacy Clyburn, a wealthy matriarch who moves her family from New York City to Montana in the wake of a life-changing event.
Chapman and Garrett play Pfeiffer’s two daughters, Paige McIntosh and Abigail Reese. Adams plays Russell McIntosh, Paige’s husband. Fox will star opposite Pfeiffer as Paul, “a self-reliant bachelor who loves the outdoors,” according to Deadline.
Here are the official character descriptions provided by Paramount:
Adams will play Russell McIntosh, a young investment banker who has followed the life path set before him from the start.
Chapman will play Paige McIntosh, a somewhat self-centered woman who indulges in a luxurious New York lifestyle provided by her parents and investment banker husband.
Garrett will play Abigail Reese, a resilient and sardonic New Yorker, who is a recently divorced mother of two.
Miller will play Bridgette, Abigail’s eldest daughter.
The Madison is Chapman’s TV debut. Her film debut was in a scene in A Man Called Otto opposite Tom Hanks. Miller recently starred in War for the Planet of the Apes.

Paramount did not announce a premiere date on August 8 nor did it give an update on when production will begin, but production on The 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.
