After delays caused by the 2023 Hollywood strikes, the second season of 1923—Taylor Sheridan’s Yellowstone prequel—finally premieres tonight. Harrison Ford, Helen Mirren, and Brandon Sklenar are all back for the next installment, which picks up after the action-packed Season 1 cliffhanger.
Set a century before Kevin Costner’s era in Yellowstone and 40 years after the prequel series 1883, the show follows the next two generations of Duttons as they navigate new challenges during Montana’s Great Depression, including lawlessness, prohibition, and cattle theft. Ford and Mirren star as Jake and Cara Dutton, who are ancestors of Costner’s John Dutton III. (Jacob is also the brother to Tim McGraw’s James Dutton from 1883.)
In the second season, the Duttons find themselves on the brink of war, facing the added challenge of a brutal winter. “A cruel winter brings new challenges and unfinished business to Jacob and Cara back at Dutton ranch. With harsh conditions and adversaries threatening to end the Dutton legacy, Spencer embarks on an arduous journey home, racing against time to save his family in Montana,” the synopsis for Season 2 reads. “Meanwhile, Alexandra sets off on her own harrowing trans-Atlantic journey to find Spencer and reclaim their love.”
Season two’s returning cast also includes Julia Schlaepfer, Jerome Flynn, Darren Mann, Brian Geraghty, Aminah Nieves, Michelle Randolph, Sebastian Roché, and Timothy Dalton. Joining them this season are newcomers Jennifer Carpenter, Augustus Prew, Janet Montgomery, and more.
