The Independent • • entertainment
Key Points:
- Taylor Sheridan has confirmed that the anticipated Yellowstone spin-off about the Four Sixes Ranch, titled 6666, has been shelved, despite earlier announcements by Paramount that it was in development.
- Sheridan explained he never intended to fictionalize the active Four Sixes Ranch in Texas, out of respect for the real people who work and live there, stating he did not want to invent drama at a functioning ranch.
- The Yellowstone franchise continues to thrive with multiple spin-offs; while the original series ended in 2024, prequels 1883 and 1923 have concluded, and sequels Marshals and Dutton Ranch are still airing.
- Dutton Ranch was recently renewed for a second season, but star Ed Harris expressed frustration over his limited role in the first season, even threatening to quit the show despite returning for the next season.
- Marshals, focusing on character Kayce Dutton, is set to return with its second season airing in October, maintaining the franchise’s presence on CBS and Paramount+.
