Yellowstone will be followed by an untitled sequel series in the works at Paramount.

"Yellowstone has been the cornerstone on which we have launched an entire universe of global hits," MTV Entertainment Studios CEO Chris McCarthy said in a statement. "I am confident our Yellowstone sequel will be another big hit."

"The Dutton story continues, picking up where Yellowstone leaves off in another epic tale," 101 Studios CEO David Glasser added.

Yellowstone premiered in 2018 and has since inspired the prequels 1883 and 1923.
