The Yellowstone universe continues to expand at a rapid rate. It began with 1883, followed by 1923, and other future spinoffs are in the works. 1883: The Bass Reeves Story is next up on the docket and has been in production since October 2022.

Here's everything we know so far:

What's the story about? The series will focus on Bass Reeves, one of the most famous heroes of the American frontier. Believed to be the inspiration of The Lone Ranger, he captured over 3,000 outlaws without getting injured during his days in the Wild West. He was a lawman in the Indian Territory, so endless opportunity for dramatic stories, but no further information is available at this point about the actual plot.

The Cast – In May 2022, it was announced that David Oyelowo would star as Reeves. Dennis Quaid and Garrett Hedlund were later confirmed as cast members. Cole Hauser, aka Rip Wheeler on Yellowstone, teased a role in the upcoming spinoff as well.

Filming Location – The small town of Strawn, Texas, has travelled back in time to the 1800s. Earlier in the month, crews were working to transform Downtown Strawn, and now that all the construction is done and the shooting has started, production crews shut down several streets around the sets.

Release Date – Based on the production timeline, we're expecting a premiere in late 2023 or possibly in 2024.
