Taylor Sheridan is now a big-name filmmaker creating some of the most acclaimed projects for Paramount. The multi-talented writer/director is responsible for the creation of the network’s most successful show Yellowstone. He has also created various spinoffs and other intriguing shows that have become hits for the streamer.
In addition to being the writer of Hell or High Water, Taylor Sheridan played an anonymous cowboy in the film
Before Yellowstone, Sheridan was relatively unknown in the industry and was trying to make a name in the industry. His first script Sicario directed by Denis Villeneuve turned out to be a hit and he had another script for another crime drama Hell or High Water. The Texas-based story had to be rooted in the state’s history and the problems plaguing people, with one city’s environment becoming the film’s inspiration.

As one of the biggest TV show sensations, Yellowstone took a serious hit when its lead star Kevin Costner left. For over a year, we were led to believe that Costner stepped over his contract and put his upcoming Horizon movies over the hit series — but now, the Western star shares his side of the story… And it’s wildly different from what we’ve been getting from the other side all these months.
Costner Didn’t Drop Yellowstone for Horizon
Recently, Kevin Costner sat down with Deadline at the Cannes Film Festival and talked about Horizon and Yellowstone. For the first time in many months, the actor commented on the drama surrounding his hit series, and according to him, he didn’t deserve the backlash he’d got. Costner didn’t sacrifice Yellowstone at any point.
“I fit [Horizon] into the [Yellowstone production] gaps. They just kept moving their gaps.

Yellowstone director Taylor Sheridan is slated to work on a new project that would adapt S.C. Gwynne’s book to the screen. Empire of the Summer Moon: Quanah Parker and the Rise and Fall of the Comanches, the Most Powerful Indian Tribe in American History was published in 2010.

Sheridan won after a rigorous bidding. As one of his so-called passion projects, the filmmaker has been eyeing to work on this since Warner Bros. gained the rights to it.
Native American Actress Doesn’t Support Taylor Sheridan’s Upcoming Project
While others expressed excitement, Native American and Echo actress Jana Schmieding was doubtful and unimpressed. She told Yahoo Entertainment:
“I rolled my eyes so hard, they almost popped out of my face. It’s laughable that he continues to think that he’s the right person for this job. He shoots on his own ranch.

Kevin Costner, 69, has broken his silence about the speculation around his rumored feud with Yellowstone creator Taylor Sheridan and his departure from the hit show in its fifth and final season. Sheridan publicly stated that he was “disappointed” with Costner’s exit.
Costner addressed the behind-the-scenes conflicts on the Paramount ranch drama and set the record straight in a new interview.
Costner emphasized that Yellowstone was of utmost importance to him. “If you know me well enough, I made Yellowstone the first priority, and to insinuate anything else would be wrong,” he told Deadline. “I did not initiate any of those things. They did.”
“I have taken a beating from those guys,” Costner said of the show’s producers.

Even prolific creators like Taylor Sheridan have to answer to their studios, and sometimes, a small miscommunication can lead to massive problems. Once upon a time, this happened with 1883, the famous Yellowstone prequel: Sheridan intended it to be a one-season gig but the studio didn’t, so the creator was forced to “somehow find a way” to make Season 2 possible.
Sheridan Was Forced to Make 1883 Season 2
The thing about communication is that both sides need to clearly signal their intentions. This clearly didn’t happen when Sheridan was working on 1883: he intended it to be a one-off mini-series, and the studio wanted several seasons. Imagine their surprise when nearly everyone died in the Season 1 finale!
“I know they read the scripts, but they don’t read [into] scripts… [Paramount CEO] Bob Bakish watched [1883 S1 finale] and said, ‘Wait a minute, she dies! They all die? What do we do in Season 2?’ I said,...

Kevin Costner’s exit from Yellowstone last year proved to be a huge shocker for everyone as the series was going great up to that point. Since 2018, the show has become one of the best TV shows, and everyone tuned in to the Paramount network to see what’s next for John Dutton and his Yellowstone ranch.

However, all intended plans were scrapped and the series is now ending with season 5 part 2. The reported reason for the mess was alleged creative differences between Costner and Sheridan, plus financial disputes. Now, Costner is coming out of the gate and telling the truth about how the studio is the main culprit behind his exit and not Sheridan.

Kevin Costner’s career arc has led him from the dredges of the ’80s to the highest peak in the present. His journey from Malibu Hot Summer (1981) to becoming the star of the biggest television show, Yellowstone, to breaking the internet with his self-financed American Western, Horizon: An American Saga, it has simply been one news-making moment after another for Costner.
However, the movie star-turned-director’s passion project would have meant nothing if not for Taylor Sheridan’s mega-successful Paramount show. Costner investing a portion of Yellowstone’s salary alongside putting his Napa Valley property up as collateral puts him at a similar mad-genius spectrum as Francis Ford Coppola when it comes to making one’s passion projects come true.

But his Yellowstone experience quickly turned sour that left Costner with one big question for Sheridan: “Why don’t you stick up for me?...

After years of starring as the iconic head of the Dutton family, i.e. John Dutton in Yellowstone, Kevin Costner has left the fan-favorite show, though it wasn’t without much drama intervening in between. However, this twisted tale is even more complex than Taylor Sheridan’s saga, considering how it has taken yet another surprising turn about whom to blame for his exit.

Stunningly enough, as compared to all the other reasons that stated that a feud ensuing between him and Sheridan was the real reason why he left, this time, Costner has set the record straight through one statement that has inevitably implied that the mastermind showrunner Sheridan is actually not the one to blame for his exit, but rather the studios are.

As Yellowstone trots towards its final episodes, there is still a ranch full of unanswered questions. Near the top of that list is, Will Kevin Costner be returning? In a (terrific) interview with Deadline in the lead-up to the premiere of his passion project, Horizon, at Cannes, Costner seemed to put a definitive answer to speculation. He says, “Well, I haven’t felt good about it the last year, what with the way they’ve talked about it. It wasn’t truthful. So now I’m talking about a little bit about what the real truth of it was. I made a contract for seasons five, six and seven. In February, after a two- or three-month negotiation, they made another contract. They wanted to redo that one, and instead of seasons six and seven, it was 5A and 5B, and maybe we’ll do six. They weren’t able to make those.

Taylor Sheridan’s dedication to authenticity is unmatched, and he proved just how far he was willing to go for his art during the filming of a scene for his Yellowstone prequel series titled 1883. He actually risked a lot for this 2021 miniseries starring Sam Elliott & Tim McGraw to capture a pivotal scene, adding an unparalleled layer of authenticity to the gripping tale.

The genius behind the cultural phenomenon of Yellowstone has not only given us a riveting portrayal of the Dutton family’s legacy, with coming attractions like the sequel show tentatively named 2024 but also two enthralling prequels—1883 and 1923.
Earlier this year, in an appearance on the Joe Rogan Experience, Sheridan shared some fascinating insights into the real history of the Wild West in the late 1800s that served as the inspiration for 1883.

After years of enticing viewers with its impeccable storyline set in the Wild West, Taylor Sheridan’s Yellowstone is in its last lag. With the release of the second half of season 5, fans will be bidding farewell to the original Dutton family. As heartbreaking as it is going to be to witness the end of the popular Paramount show, it is even more horrifying to think that, perhaps, Kevin Costner will not be returning as John Dutton.

Kevin Costner’s falling-out with Taylor Sheridan and leaving Yellowstone might prove to be one of the biggest turning points of his entire career. An iconic Western actor, Costner put everything on making his own movies instead of finishing Sheridan’s saga, and since that decision, fans have been wondering whether it was worth the price he paid himself and made everyone else pay as well.
Kevin Costner Risked It All for Horizon
Costner is one of the most — if not simply the most — well-established actors in the Western genre. In the past years, Taylor Sheridan’s Yellowstone was his biggest project, having him play the lead role of John Dutton, the show’s ultimate patriarch. But being the lead star in someone else’s series didn’t seem good enough for him.

Nicole Kidman is not one of the highest-paid actresses in the world for no reason. With her consistently incredible work in film and television, the actress has time and again proved that she can do anything and everything, no matter the genre. Whether it’s a thriller like Destroyer or a rom-com like Just Go with It, Nicole Kidman knows just how to do justice to her roles.

She has also worked as a producer on many projects including Taylor Sheridan’s spy thriller, Special Ops: Lioness. The television series stars Zoe Saldaña in the lead role as Joe, a CIA officer in charge of the Lioness program. Nicole Kidman also has a supporting, yet pivotal role in the series, which was custom-made by Taylor Sheridan himself just so he could get the actress to come in front of the cameras for the show.

Taylor Sheridan brought anyone with an experience on the ranch into his show Yellowstone. This included the acclaimed country musician Ryan Bingham. Bingham plays the guest role of a ranch hand, Walker, in the series. Interestingly, Sheridan is a big fan of the singer’s music and listened to one of his songs on a loop while writing the script for his pre-Yellowstone film, Wind River.

Taylor Sheridan has become the talk of the town ever since the release of Yellowstone, a neo-Western drama series that follows the conflicts around the borders of Yellowstone Ranch. The series is currently in its final season with part one already out. The second part is all set to premiere towards the end of the year. Apart from Yellowstone, Taylor Sheridan has created two prequel series for his show, 1883 and 1923. Two more spin-offs will also be released in the future.

When it comes to 1883, Taylor Sheridan has been praised for the show’s historical accuracy, something which he hired a team of historians for. There is no doubt to the fact that the director’s attention to detail was mind-blowing.

Taylor Sheridan’s one Yellowstone spinoff is yet to start production after being greenlit in 2021. The series titled 6666 was set up in one of the episodes of Season 4 of Yellowstone when Jimmy Hurdstrom, played by Jefferson White, left the Montana ranch to work in the 6666 ranch in Texas.
Sheridan himself revealed the reason why 6666 is taking time to reach the small screen, and the reason suggests that the series may take even more time to get made.

Taylor Sheridan is now an in-demand filmmaker who has created his own TV empire at Paramount. He is the creator of the network’s flagship show Yellowstone and its spinoffs 1883 and 1923. He also created other successful shows for the network including Tulsa King, Mayor of Kingstown, and Special Ops: Lioness.
In addition to being the creator of Yellowstone, Taylor Sheridan also starred as Travis Wheatley in the show
Before Yellowstone, he directed the neo-Western crime drama Wind River starring Jeremy Renner and Elizabeth Olsen. While Yellowstone has a much bigger scope and narrative than the film, Sheridan found making the film far more challenging than the series as he had no financial support and limited time to make it.

Oh Yellowstone… All the drama surrounding the iconic Western series in the past year began with its lead star Kevin Costner having a falling-out with Yellowstone creator Taylor Sheridan and leaving the cast. Since then, Sheridan has spent a lot of time and resources to reroute the finale of his TV show and make it happen without Kevin Costner’s John Dutton, which must have been quite the hassle.
Seeing how Yellowstone starts shooting its finale next week, you’d guess that everything is done and dusted — but then, Kevin Costner gives an interview.

Taylor Sheridan’s Yellowstone has been a ginormous hit for Paramount, that hooked millions of viewers to the screen, with Kevin Costner’s phenomenal performance and the show’s gripping storyline.

Exclusive: A little over a month after Season 3 of Resident Alien wrapped its run on Syfy, the future of the quirky sci-fi comedy-drama is up in the air. And there is some intrigue over where the series starring Alan Tudyk would continue should it get a fourth season.
I hear there are talks about Resident Alien moving from Syfy to NBCU cable sibling USA Network, which currently doesn’t have scripted originals besides Chucky, which it shares with Syfy. According to sources, a return to Syfy appears unlikely, so USA is Resident Alien‘s only feasible destination within NBCU, whose UCP division produces the adaptation of the comic book by Peter Hogan and Steve Parkhouse.
But a potential Season 4 pickup by USA would come with a major budget reduction, as much as $500,000 an episode, which will be challenging, I hear.

Taylor Sheridan sparked outrage when he stated that his 2017 film Wind River played a major part in the Reauthorization of the Violence Against Women Act that President Joe Biden signed into law in 2022. This reauthorization played a huge part in strengthening its reach to the Native communities. Needless to say, Native groups were and still are quite furious at Taylor Sheridan for trying to take credit for the decades of advocacy behind the act.

Still, many Native American actors work in Taylor Sheridan’s projects despite the community’s displeasure with the director.

Taylor Sheridan has been deeply instrumental to the entertainment industry as far as the Western genre is concerned. The creator of Yellowstone and its various spinoffs, the director-write-actor, is a one-man army who has single-handedly created one of the most prolific TV shows of our times.

Whatever fate befalls Paramount Global after the smoke clears, one of the Hollywood Trivial Pursuit questions someday will be which heavy hitters have issued statements of support for Skydance’s proposed acquisition of Paramount’s holding company, National Amusements Inc. — and which didn’t.
Even as the Paramount special committee passed on the offer from David Ellison’s company May 4, sources say the Skydance-RedBird alliance has not given up. The premise, a source with knowledge of the situation tells The Hollywood Reporter, is that the rival Apollo/Sony Pictures offer now up for Paramount’s consideration will fail for multiple reasons, with Skydance still waiting in the wings.
So despite much Wall Street skepticism over a proposed deal that favors controlling shareholder Shari Redstone over other investors, “Skydance has been on an extremely aggressive PR campaign in the last month to convince everyone how legitimate they are,” says a prominent media mogul.

The romance of fan favorites Beth and Rip could continue beyond Yellowstone, actor Cole Hauser hints.
The final episodes of the Paramount Network hit are set to begin production sometime this year. But Hauser suggests the characters played by himself and Kelly Reilly might have a future beyond the show’s fifth season closer — presumably, in Paramount+’s planned Yellowstone spinoff 2024 (working title).
“I’m so focused on finishing Yellowstone the way it needs to be finished right now — well, just the show itself,” Hauser recently told Country Living. “We’ll see where that leads. But I know that there’s some stuff on the horizon when it comes to Taylor’s ideas for Kelly Reilly and myself, and some of the other cast. I’m excited to see where he goes creatively with that. But right now it’s just: Let’s finish strong; let’s do the best we can.

After the incredible success of Yellowstone, Taylor Sheridan roped in Helen Mirren and Harrison Ford for the prequel series 1923. It follows the story of the Dutton family in 1923, where Mirren played Cara Dutton and Ford played her husband Jacob Dutton. Mirren is not an actress to walk into a television show without reading a script. On top of that, she hated most of the “normal” Western films. However, she signed on to the Yellowstone spin-off without a script.

Created by Taylor Sheridan and starring Kevin Costner, the Western drama Yellowstone has become one of the biggest shows on modern television. The series’ success is evidenced by its colossal viewership figures and expansion into multiple spin-offs such as 1883 and 1923 along with several upcoming shows.

Take in the dramatic conflicts and rolling pastures of Yellowstone, and you’ll understand why its visionary creator, Taylor Sheridan, is so intolerant of any criticism that he vehemently maintains is unfounded. How often do we stumble upon a show that ricochets between the resonant truths of culture and the rugged beauty of storytelling, only to find its essence misconstrued?
Sheridan, the maestro behind the curtain, was quick to demolish the notion that his beloved series is merely a “conservative” or “Republican show”—a label he challenged in an eye-opening conversation with The Atlantic in 2022.

The narrative landscape of Yellowstone is so firmly anchored in tackling themes like Native American historical displacement that one must ask: Can the interpretation of such a complex production truly be painted with a single color of the political spectrum?

It’s not over ’til it’s over. And Kevin Costner insists that he’s not necessarily done with creator Taylor Sheridan or Yellowstone.
The fifth season of Yellowstone has been set to be the show’s last, with alleged scheduling conflicts that have star Kevin Costner leaving the show. Right now, Yellowstone is planning to air its final episodes in November before launching a new, Costner-free spinoff series, 2024, in December.
