Will there be a Season 2 of 1883?
Technically, 1883 will be followed by the sequel 1923, which similarly takes place before the events of Yellowstone. The famous lawman’s life will be chronicled in 1883: The Bass Reeves Story, which will continue to air.
With the addition of 6666, a new offshoot based on the Four Sixes Ranch in West Texas, the Yellowstone world is about to expand even more. Sheridan stated that he “wanted to produce a ten-hour movie, and that’s what we accomplished” regarding a direct sequel to 1883, not anticipating one just now.
Sheridan added he made this trip down memory lane to show you this journey. He doesn’t like to wrap things up neatly and describe how everyone succeeded or failed in their endeavors.
He said he also wanted to make something that, even if you’d never been to Yellowstone, you could watch and be utterly thrilled and satisfied. Let it live depending on its own merits. That feels closed-ended to him as a storyteller. He will look out a window into another time period to see what he can see there.
