📰 Stop the presses! Get ready for explosive drama in the Yellowstone prequel series, 1944! 🎬💥 Paramount Network has greenlit the spinoff, which will delve into the Dutton family's experiences during World War II. Following the success of the Depression-era drama 1923, this new series will explore the impact of the war on the iconic Yellowstone Ranch. While plot details are scarce, we can expect intense action sequences and the possibility of Duttons joining the war effort. With the Yellowstone universe known for its audacious set pieces, 1944 promises to deliver thrilling moments against the backdrop of a changing world.
As for the cast, no official announcements have been made.However, given the caliber of talent in 1923 with Harrison Ford and Helen Mirren, it wouldn't be surprising if Paramount seeks another big-name star to lead the cast of 1944. Matthew McConaughey's involvement in a Yellowstone sequel series also adds to the excitement, although details about his role are under wraps. Filming is expected to take place in Montana, specifically at the Yellowstone Ranch location, providing stunning visuals of the Bitterroot Valley. If the WWII theories hold true, we might even see some on-location shoots in Europe, adding to the authenticity and grandeur of the series.
While 1944 is still in development, it likely won't debut until either 2024 or 2025, considering the recent writer strike in Hollywood and the ongoing actor strike. But rest assured, fans of Yellowstone will have more thrills and gripping storytelling to look forward to in this prequel series. Get ready to dive into the wartime Montana of the Duttons and join them on their journey through history in 1944! 🌄🎥🌟
