Fans of Yellowstone and 1883 are used to going back in time and revisiting origin tales, so they won’t mind that the new spin-off is shifting its location by nine years from its original idea. The planned Yellowstone-verse Paramount+ series, once known as 1932, now goes by the name 1923. The Dutton family experiences some difficult moments in the origin narrative as they work through one of America’s worst challenges. This December will see the start of the series.
The title change, according to Paramount+ and MTV Entertainment Studios, reflects several features that were incorporated into the primary story arcs during production. The two major historical occurrences that will be covered by the new series are the end of World War I (which occurred in 1918) and the beginning of Prohibition (which began in 1920). While these events undoubtedly had an impact on the plot, moving the setting closer to them will make those effects more noticeable in the storylines.
It’s not like 1923 wasn’t already a must-see movie. Two Hollywood A-listers were revealed to be joining the cast by Paramount+ last month: Academy Award nominee and living icon Harrison Ford and Academy Award winner Dame Helen Mirren (The Queen) (Indiana Jones, Star Wars). Although their roles have not yet been made public, it is safe to assume that they will play significant roles in the plot and that their talent will significantly improve the quality of the limited series.
The first Yellowstone spin-off series, 1883, created history in the streaming platform by becoming the most watched show in its history worldwide, thus 1923 has a great chance of being yet another success for Paramount+. The series will shortly continue to develop its plot. Season 5 of the hit television programme Yellowstone premieres in November.
The much awaited spin-off series continues a fruitful collaboration between Taylor Sheridan and Paramount+. The Academy Award-winning screenwriter has penned critically praised films like Sicario, Hell or High Water, and Wind River, but television is where he really came to life. The screenwriter and producer has produced a number of episodes for the streamer in addition to Yellowstone, 1883, and 1923, including Mayor of Kingstown and the upcoming Lioness, Tulsa King, Land Man, and 1883: The Bass Reeves Story.
1923 has its Paramount+ debut in December. A precise release window has not yet been disclosed.
Below is a the series’ official synopsis:
The focus of the limited series is on the Dutton family’s following two generations as they fight to survive a catastrophic drought, lawlessness, prohibition, and an upsurge in cattle rustling while dodging the shadow of Montana’s great depression, which began almost ten years before the rest of the country.
