Spencer Hudnut, the showrunner for the upcoming Yellowstone spinoff Y: Marshals, shares new details about where one of the returning

Dutton family members’ story is headed next. Taylor Sheridan’s smash hit neo-Western series Yellowstone came to an end in December 2024, but the Yellowstone franchise is still growing with sequels and spinoffs in the works.

 

 

The franchise already includes the two series, 1883 and 1923, exploring different earlier generations of the Dutton family who settle in Montana. Following Yellowstone’s ending, the modern-day Duttons go off in different directions. Y: Marshals, which will premiere on March 1, 2026, at 8 p.m. Et/Pt on CBS, will follow Kayce Dutton (Luke Grimes) starting a career as a U.

Yellowstone continues to be hugely popular on the global Paramount+ charts, as do several of Sheridan’s other shows, such as Mayor of Kingstown and Tulsa King, not to mention the Yellowstone spin-offs 1923 and 1883. The First Christmas, on the other hand, found a spot for itself on the domestic Hulu charts with relative ease. It continues to hold on, even though it has surrendered its ranking to shows such as Percy Jackson and the Olympians, All’s Fair, and The Simpsons. The First Christmas doesn’t have an official Rotten Tomatoes score yet, but its IMDb rating is sitting at a solid 7.7. Faith-based projects tend to deliver impressive audience scores, as can be seen from recent titles such as House of David, Jesus Revolution, and The King of Kings.
