The Yellowstone sequel has a new title and its first star. Michelle Pfeiffer has been signed to star in the spin-off series The Madison, which was previously titled 2024. Matthew McConaughey was initially in talks to star in the Paramount Network project, but a deal was never officially announced. It’s unclear how many, if any, characters from Yellowstone will appear on the new show.
Paramount Network revealed more about the upcoming series in a press release.
MTV Entertainment Studios and 101 Studios today announced that Oscar(R) nominee Michelle Pfeiffer will executive produce and star in The Madison (previously announced as 2024), a new original series from Academy Award nominee Taylor Sheridan.
