Paramount+ Orders More ‘1883’ & Announces the Next Chapter of the Duttons in ‘1932’
If you’re a fan of the Dutton family and Yellowstone origin stories, you’re in luck: There’s plenty more of them coming.
Paramount+ has not only ordered more of Taylor Sheridan‘s 1883, but it has also announced plans for a new series, 1932, following a new generation of the Duttons during the time of western expansion, Prohibition and the Great Depression. This news comes as 1883‘s record-breaking performance became the streaming service’s most-watched title ever globally.
“The incredible storytelling and stellar performances behind 1883 have fueled phenomenal new records for Paramount+,” said Tanya Giles, chief programming officer, ViacomCBS Streaming, in a statement. “Promoting the series through linear sampling on the Paramount Network during their latest record-breaking season of Yellowstone further enabled us to introduce Sheridan’s loyal audience to this fantastic new series. We look forward to bringing fans even more of the Duttons’ origin story.”
Added Chris McCarthy, president and CEO of ViacomCBS Media Networks and MTV Entertainment Studios, “While most shows franchise near the end of their run, we seized the opportunity to franchise in real time, to drive record growth for both streaming and linear properties, proving the power of ViacomCBS’ differentiated model. With the brilliant mind and gifted storytelling of Taylor Sheridan, we have created an entirely new world to explore with 1883 while expanding Yellowstone, and with 1932 we will open up a new chapter in this rapidly growing universe.”
Added executive producer David C. Glasser, “Taylor Sheridan has put roots down for the Dutton Family tree that stand strong and tall, with many branches that continue to engage record-breaking audiences. It is awe-inspiring to work with Taylor, ViacomCBS and the entire team on this universe.”
1883, created by Sheridan, serves as a prequel to Yellowstone (the hit Paramount Network series, which recently received its first SAG Awards nomination and has been renewed for a fifth season). Following the Duttons as they embark on a journey west through the Great Plains, it stars Sam Elliott, Tim McGraw, Faith Hill, Billy Bob Thornton, Isabel May, LaMonica Garrett, Marc Rissmann, Audie Rick, Eric Nelsen, and James Landry Hébert.
1883 is executive produced by Sheridan, John Linson, Art Linson, Glasser, Ron Burkle, and Bob Yari.
