Yellowstone has been developed into a fully-fledged franchise, with several spin-offs focusing on different eras of the Dutton dynasty and key locations connected to the main show.

Aside from 1923, the other shows are:

Yellowstone launched in 2018 and follows the Dutton family—a powerful dynasty and owner of the largest ranch in Montana. The series explores their personal issues, interpersonal conflicts, and their struggles against developers, the Broken Rock Indian Reservation, and the National Park bordering their homestead. Kevin Costner leads the cast as the family patriarch, with Kelly Reilly, Luke Grimes, Cole Hauser, and Wes Bentley completing the central family unit. The show will end with part two of its fifth season in November 2024.

A prequel to 1923, 1883: A Yellowstone Origin Story follows the birth of the Dutton dynasty. It depicts the Dutton family's journey from Tennessee to Fort Worth, Texas, and through Oregon to Montana, establishing what fans now know as the Yellowstone Ranch.

The Madison is another all-star cast spin-off led by Michelle Pfeiffer as wealthy matriarch Stacy Clyburn. After a family tragedy, the Clyburns move to Montana from New York. Filming was believed to begin in August 2024, with a planned release in 2025.

The Four Sixes Ranch is a significant location in the main Yellowstone series. This spin-off is expected to follow the present-day happenings at the ranch. Announced in 2021, its development has faced delays due to the pushback of the final Yellowstone season and the 2023 SAG/WGA strikes.

1944 was announced in February 2023 and is expected to touch on the US’s involvement in World War II, with D-Day occurring in June of that year. Further details on release or plot are not yet available.
