1923 season 2: Everything we know about the Yellowstone prequel | Digital Trends (1)

Yellowstone has only been around since 2018, but the show is so popular that series co-creator Taylor Sheridan keeps coming up with new spinoffs and prequel series for Paramount+. That was also a way for Paramount+ to have a part of the franchise since the streaming rights for Yellowstone currently belong to Peacock. To date, Sheridan has produced and released two prequel miniseries, 1923 and 1883, with more shows on the way. While 1883 was designed to run only a single season, a new season of 1923 is in the works.

Prew appeared on the fifth season of Prison Break, and he had a starring role on the CBS series Pure Genius. His other credits include About a Boy, The Secret of Moonacre, Charlie St. Cloud, and The Borgias.

Yes. Via CNN, Cole Brings Plenty was found dead on April 5, 2024 after going missing on March 31. He portrayed Pete Plenty Clouds, the teenage son of Hank Plenty Clouds (Michael Greyeyes), in 1923 season 1. The circumstances of Bring Plenty’s death are unclear, as his body was discovered a short distance away from his car. Brings Plenty had also been suspected of domestic violence when he went missing. He was the nephew of Yellowstone actor Mo Brings Plenty.

It’s currently unknown if Brings Plenty had been slated to return as Pete in 1923 season 2 or if the role will be recast.

As of September 2024, production of1923 season 2 is finally underway. At least a portion of the show will be filmed in downtown San Antonio, as per a report from Texas Public Radio. The production will only be present for the week of September 16 before moving on to another location.

Paramount+ hasn’t announced how long 1923 season 2 will be filming, but it seems to be on course for a 2025 premiere.

Have there been any hints about the story in 1923 season 2?

Not yet. But the first season ended with the Duttons facing a crisis. Donald Whitfield has paid the taxes that the Duttons owed for their land. And if they can’t pay him back by the end of the year, then everything they own will belong to him. That’s bound to be the primary plotline when the story continues.

Will Paramount+ order 1923 season 3?

No. Sheridan has indicated that he only has plans for eight more episodes of 1923, which would conclude this chapter of the Dutton family’s saga.

“This one is different than 1883, where I had the whole thing blocked out in my head,” said Sheridan during a 2022 interview with Deadline. “This one, I had no idea what I was going to do. I just went on a journey myself and I’m the one that made the call to the network, which is probably the greatest call they ever got. ‘Hey, I need to make more episodes to finish this story. I need to do this in two blocks. An eight-episode block and a second eight-episode block to wrap this up. I can’t wrap it up in two episodes and do the story justice. For them, it is great because they get more content. For me, I get more runway.”

Brandon Sklenar teases the 1923 series finale

Spencer Dutton actor Brandon Sklenar recently told Forbes that he’s had all of the scripts for six months, and he’s very excited about how the show comes to an end.

“The finale of the series is probably one of the best things I’ve read in my life,” said Sklenar. “I’ve kind of known how it was going to end since day one — Taylor [Sheridan] kind of told me. I knew the full arc of Spencer from day one, so in shooting part one, you’re mindful of where he needs to go. I’m really excited.”

“I can confidently say that it’s going to be absolutely incredible,” added Sklenar. “The tone shifts a lot and it’s definitely a bit darker. It’s very beautiful … and it’s going to be special.”

Will there be a 1923 sequel series?

Yes. The sequel miniseries, 1944, was announced in February 2023. It would set the show in the latter part of World War II, and presumably,the Dutton family fought in that conflict. Beyond that, no other details about the show are available.

When will 1923 season 2 be released?

1923 | Official Trailer | Paramount+

So far, neither Sheridan nor Paramount+ have given any hints about when 1923 will premiere. What we do know is that the final episodes of Yellowstone season 5 will be shooting this spring before the episodes run on Paramount Network in November.

If 1923 finishes production before Yellowstone season 5 part 2 does, it could conceivably come out earlier. It’s doubtful that Paramount+ would run 1923 season 2 at the same time that Yellowstone has new episodes. That could conceivably push back 1923 season 2 into 2025. Until Paramount+ provides us with more information, that’s all we know.
