A new ad for Paramount+ seemingly confirms the release window for Yellowstone spinoff The Madison. After the events of Yellowstone season 5 and Kevin Costner’s high-profile exit, the story will continue with Kayce Dutton’s Marshals on CBS. There’s also Dutton Ranch, featuring the return of Beth and Rip, for Paramount+.

The Madison is an upcoming drama that’s connected to Yellowstone, though it is not focused on any characters from the main series. It’s led by three-time Oscar nominee Michelle Pfeiffer, centering on the McIntosh family, as the New York City clan lives in the Madison River valley of central Montana.

A new advertisement for Paramount+, shown in Deadline, puts the spotlight on the streamer’s upcoming titles for the coming year. The brief sizzle reel is narrated by MobLand star Helen Mirren, largely focusing on the UFC offerings on Paramount+. The ad does unveil a quick clip from The Madison, which highlights a serene landscape and seemingly confirms that the spinoff will release in 2026.

The advertisement likewise highlights that MobLand season 2 and Dutton Ranch are set to debut in 2026. There is a lot of interest in The Madison, with reports of the series going back to February 2024. The cast appearing alongside Pfeiffer includes Patrick J. Adams, Elle Chapman, Matthew Fox, Beau Garrett, Amiah Miller, Ben Schnetzer, Kevin Zegers, Rebecca Spence, Alaina Pollack, Danielle Vasinova, and Kurt Russell.

The Madison has gone through several iterations. At one point, coming after Costner’s Yellowstone exit, there were reports that Matthew McConaughey could lead the spinoff. However, the actor’s involvement fell through, and the Western drama ultimately went in a different direction.

The Madison has reportedly received an early renewal. Even though the cast is fully known and the story is set up for the future, specific story details remain under wraps. That will likely begin to shift, as the release window has grown narrower, and viewers get a better sense of whether the Pfeiffer-led saga has a chance to rank among the best Sheridan shows.
