Yellowstone has always had a passion for heritage, if not heritage itself. Yellowstone Ranch, on which the legendary Dutton family has lived since the late 1800s;
The first thing that comes to mind is John Dutton, played by Kevin Costner, who speaks in a stern voice like a shepherd past his prime.
He is often more interested in the good of the land than his children, perhaps simply because he is easier to understand.
If there's one thing to be said about legacy in the ever-expanding Yellowstone Cinema universe, it's that the legacy of the land is determined by its inhabitants.
The Dutton clan is only as much the father and son of this century-long epic as the boundaries of their estate. And so we turn to 1883 and 1923.
Taylor Sheridan's Yellowstone prequel spin-off, which follows John Dutton III and his upper-class family of four (almost) children.
Ended its first season in February 2022. It stars Tim McGrath and Faith Hill, who continue to stake their claim to the infamous forest area of Central Dutton.
Disease and drought and the Great Depression and post-war conditions and violence always haunt the family as depicted in the 1923 trailer.
