- Paramount+ has officially set a release date for 1923 season 2: February 23rd, 2025.
- Ahead of its highly-anticipated premiere, the streamer has also dropped a trio of teaser trailers and first-look images.
- The hit Yellowstone prequel series starring Harrison Ford and Helen Mirren — which reportedly cost $30-35 million per episode — concluded its first season almost two years ago.
In case you haven’t heard, it’s Taylor Sheridan season.
Over the past month and a half, not only has the busiest man in television delivered the long-delayed second half of Yellowstone season 5; but also a sophomore instalment of Special Ops: Lioness and his latest well-received drama Landman (led by Billy Bob Thornton, Ali Larter, Jon Hamm, and Demi Moore).

Today, we’re pleased to report that come February 23rd, 2025, Sheridan fans will finally get a chance to lap up 1923 season 2.
The Yellowstone prequel follows a generation of the Dutton family during the titular year — a time of great hardships ranging from Prohibition, drought, and the early days of the Great Depression, which impacted Montana long before the Wall Street Crash of 1929.
The first season closed with several unresolved loose ends.
Spencer Dutton (Brandon Sklenar) was jettisoned from the ship taking him back to Dutton Ranch, where he’s desperately needed to fight off those who would take it from his family, after acting in self-defence against the former fiancée of his wife Alexandra (Julia Schlaepfer); the newlyweds now forcibly separated.
Back on the home front, it was revealed that villainous tycoon Donald Whitfield (Timothy Dalton) had taken advantage of the law to assume control of Dutton Ranch by paying the outstanding property tax; should Cara (Helen Mirren) and Jacob Dutton (Harrison Ford) fail to repay him within the year, the deed for the coveted land will default into Mr Whitfield’s possession.
At the same time, Teonna Rainwater (Aminah Nieves) is on the run both the sadistic Catholic church and US Marshal Kent (Jamie McShane) with a trail of bodies in her wake.
February cannot come soon enough.
Given the gamechanging success of Yellowstone, and how much of a golden goose Mr Sheridan (alongside co-creator Art Linson) has proven to be for Paramount, the franchise will continue through even more spin-offs and another flagship series.
The latter, dubbed The Madison, reportedly stars Michelle Pfeiffer as wealthy matriarch Stacy Clyburn, who moves her family from NYC to Montana “in the wake of her husband and brother-in-law’s tragic deaths in a plane crash.” Suits alum Patrick J. Adams to Beau Garrett are also set to appear.
This spiritual sequel was initially in talks to be led by Matthew McConaughey, and at one point, Kurt Russell was also in the conversation; though that’s obviously since fallen through. Cameras officially began rolling back in August 2024 in Montana, New York, and Texas with the expectation of premiering in 2025.

As for those other spin-offs, there’s another prequel in 1943 (continuing where 1923 and the concluded 1883 closes the book); and 6666 set in the present day on Texas’ iconic Four Sixes Ranch (the one Taylor Sheridan actually owns) where are few key players are canonically hunkered down.
In other words, there certainly won’t be any shortage of Yellowstone universe content.
Once again, the 1923 season 2 release date has been set for February 23rd, 2025 — keep an eye out for it on Paramount+ and check out the teaser trailers above.
