Taylor has brought to life a layered and poignant universe that is not only incredibly intriguing but also more relevant than ever.”with ViacomCBS. One of the shows already set up under the deal is a “Yellowstone” prequel series that will debut on Paramount Plus.

Prisons are a forgotten world to most of the population and yet represent a microcosm of society as a whole.”
