Y: Marshals Premiere Date Set: Legacy, Loyalty & Bloodlines Return in Explosive New Chapter of Dutton Universe
Mark the Date: March 1, 2026 Changes Everything
The Yellowstone universe just got a whole lot bigger—and more dangerous. Y: Marshals, the long-awaited spin-off of Taylor Sheridan’s sweeping Western saga, has officially locked in its premiere date: March 1, 2026. With 13 gritty, emotionally-charged episodes, this mid-season CBS series is poised to carry the Dutton legacy into bold new territory.
Set against a backdrop of law enforcement, reservation politics, and the lingering echoes of frontier justice, Y: Marshals will bring together both returning icons and fresh faces for a showdown that promises legacy-level stakes.
The Originals Ride Again: Familiar Faces, Familiar Fire
Fans can rejoice—the heart of the Dutton story lives on. Gil Birmingham reprises his powerful role as Chief Thomas Rainwater, the visionary leader of the Broken Rock Reservation, a man who’s always walked the tightrope between tradition and political reality. Beside him stands the ever-loyal Mo, portrayed once again by Mo Brings Plenty, whose silent strength continues to define the soul of the land.
Meanwhile, Brecken Merrill returns as Tate Dutton, grounding the family’s future in bloodline and history. With Luke Grimes confirmed as Kayce Dutton, it’s clear that this spin-off isn’t just a branch—it’s the continuation of the main trunk.
New Blood, New Trouble
The series also welcomes several high-profile additions to the cast: Arielle Kebbel, Tatanka Means, Ash Santos, Brett Cullen, and Logan Marshall-Green bring a diverse, volatile energy that hints at internal conflict, federal overreach, and perhaps even betrayal.
But the biggest whispers are around Kelsey Asbille’s Monica, who’s reportedly in talks to return. If she does, her presence could reignite some of the most emotionally charged family drama from the original series—especially as Tate grows into his own and Kayce faces decisions no lawman or father should ever have to make.

What to Expect: Spirit of Yellowstone, Law of the Land
Sheridan has promised Y: Marshals will blend the mythic tension of Yellowstone with the procedural grit of modern justice, anchoring the drama in the sacred and the savage. Tribal sovereignty, generational trauma, and frontier loyalty are all expected to collide as Marshals navigate crimes that cross reservation lines, moral codes, and family allegiances.
