Taylor Sheridan’s latest series, family drama The Madison starring Michelle Pfeiffer and Kurt Russell, will premiere March 14 on Paramount+, with the streamer also releasing first-look images. The first season of the series, which follows New York City’s the Clyburns in the Madison River valley of central Montana, consists of six episodes.
That is the smallest order to date for a Taylor Sheridan series whose seasons typically run for 10 episodes (Yellowstone, Landman, Tulsa King, Mayor of Kingstown) or 8 episodes (Lioness, 1923). But that comes with a nice bonus — a second season, I hear.
The Madison, a love story channeled through a family drama, is produced by Paramount Television Studios, David C. Glasser’s 101 Studios and Bosque Ranch Productions.
As Deadline reported in August, Glasser revealed at the time that The Madison Season 2 was slated to begin filming in September at the new 450,000 sf production campus in Fort Worth, Texas that is backed by him, Sheridan, Paramount and Perot. The second installment has now been completed, I hear. It is envisioned as a second season, with a small possibility for it running as Part 2 of Season 1, sources said.
Described as Sheridan’s most intimate work to date and a study of grief and human connection, The Madison unfolds across Montana and Manhattan as it examines family ties.
In addition to Pfeiffer and Russell, the series stars Beau Garrett, Elle Chapman, Patrick J. Adams, Amiah Miller, Alaina Pollack, Ben Schnetzer, Kevin Zegers, Rebecca Spence, Danielle Vasinova and Matthew Fox.
The Madison is executive produced by Sheridan, Glasser, John Linson, Art Linson, Ron Burkle, David Hutkin, Bob Yari, Christina Voros, Michael Friedman, Michelle Pfeiffer, Kurt Russell and Keith Cox.
