The Matthew McConaughey Yellowstone spinoff sounds like it’s moving ahead, and a Hollywood icon is in talks to costar.
But for months, rumors have circulated that Matthew McConaughey would top-line another Yellowstone spinoff. And thanks to a new report, we now know who his costar might be.
Yellowstone: Hollywood legend “in talks” for Matthew McConaughey spinoff
Michelle Pfeiffer is in talks to co-star with Matthew McConaughey in the as-yet-untitled Yellowstone spinoff. According to thePuck newsletter, Pfeiffer is actually closer to a deal than the actor.
The same report also suggests that three Yellowstone stars might reprise their roles in the sequel series – Cole Hauser, Kelly Reilly, and Scott Grimes. Though the actors are asking for big per-episode salaries, which is giving Sheridan and Paramount headaches.
Puck states: “Reilly, in particular, initially asked for a whopping $1.5 million an episode, according to two sources, at or above the very top tier of TV stars, though in recent communications that number has come down to $1.2 million an episode… Hauser, I’m told, had asked for $1.25 million an episode, up from the $700,000 an episode he currently makes.”
