What The New Title Means For The Yellowstone Spinoff
Kayce Begins A New Chapter
Y: Marshals is the spinoff’s working title, which means that it could change moving forward. But the spinoff’s premise will see Kayce leave the Dutton family ranch and join the Navy SEALs. It’s a shift that is likewise reflected in the spinoff’s creative team. The series will see Spencer Hudnut, the executive producer of SEAL Team, serve as showrunner and also executive produce alongside franchise creator Taylor Sheridan, David C. Glasser for 101 Studios, John Linson, and Art Linson. Check out the official synopsis below:
With the Yellowstone Ranch behind him, Dutton joins an elite unit of U.S. Marshals, combining his skills as a cowboy and Navy SEAL to bring range justice to Montana, where he and his teammates must balance family, duty and the high psychological cost that comes with serving as the last line of defense in the region’s war on violence.
Our Take On Y: Marshals
A Lot Is Still TBD

To its credit, CBS is pretty good at launching a series and making sure that it finds an audience. That will likely be the case with Y: Marshals as well, which has a built-in audience. But there will still be questions about the cast and how, for example, Kayce’s family will factor into this new story. Based on the initial details, it doesn’t sound like the spinoff plans to be a neat continuation of what came before. It will tap into a side of Kayce that had only been glimpsed in Yellowstone.
