Michelle Pfeiffer, Kurt Russell to lead ‘Yellowstone’ spinoff ‘The Madison’
Paramount+ has announced a new spinoff to its hit Western series, Yellowstone, with Michelle Pfeiffer and Kurt Russell leading the project.
Recently sharing a first look at The Madison, the streamer highlighted the character names for both of the stars.
It was noted that Michelle will play Stacy Clyburn, described as “the heart of the family”, while Kurt will appear as Preston Clyburn.
“The new series premieres Saturday, March 14th, only on @paramountplus,” revealed the caption alongside both Michelle and Kurt’s stills.
Following the Clyburn family’s story, The Madison has been described as a “heartfelt study of grief and human connection following a New York City family in the Madison River valley of central Montana.”
Whereas its IMDb synopsis stated: “A New York family’s life unravels after a tragedy, as they process grief while vacationing in rural Montana, exploring human connection amidst profound sorrow.”
According to The Hollywood Reporter, while “the six-episode first season” of the series “will introduce the Clyburn family”, it is not yet known “if they are connected to the Duttons” — the protagonist clan from Yellowstone, led by Kevin Costner.
Meanwhile, The Madison cast additionally includes Beau Garrett, Elle Chapman, Patrick J. Adams, Amiah Miller, Alaina Pollack, Ben Schnetzer, Kevin Zegers, Rebecca Spence, Danielle Vasinova, and Matthew Fox.

Mickey Rourke considering new career path amid financial trouble
Mickey Rourke is quickly running out of time to finance his Hollywood lifestyle by paying the back rent on his current property and he may have found just the solution.
According to sources, the once admired actor is considering writing a tell-all about the “dirt” he has on those in the business.
The news came amid the reports about his eviction and the fact that one of his staff members initiated a GoFundMe in his name, something he categorically rebuked.
While on the verge of losing his Los Angeles home, the Oscar-nominated actor’s manager Kimberly Hines set up the online fundraiser for him.
Reaching a target of nearly $100,000 in 24 hours, Mickey took to his Instagram and refused any association with the financial scheme.
“Somebody set up some kind of foundation or fund for me to donate money, like in a charity, and that’s not me, OK? If I needed money, I wouldn’t ask for no f****** charity. I’d rather stick a gun up my a** and pull the trigger,” he said.
Now, an insider has told Globe that the Iron Man star may come out with a tell-all to raise money because he “can be a loose cannon.”
“Mickey can be a loose cannon,” the source claimed. “The temptation to dish real dirt will be hard to resist because the more dirt he spills, the more secrets he spills — the more money he’ll make.”
It was further reported that Mickey Rourke currently owes $60,000 in back rent payments while his manager has since “secured an apartment for her client and retrieved his belongings.” Though it was reiterated that the donations will be “returned” if the actor doesn’t want them, with Hines’ main “goal” being to get him work “and claims that he’s already received four movie offers.”

Princess Kate starts driving herself to events, ditches drivers
The Princess of Wales’ most eye-catching royal moments happen before the cameras are even properly rolling.
This week, Kate quietly arrived at her own engagement behind the wheel of her own car.
The 44-year-old hosted England’s World Cup-winning women’s rugby squad at Windsor Castle on Thursday, but it was her low-key arrival that caught attention online.
In a video circulating on social media, an eyewitness spotted Kate driving herself through the Castle gates, stepping out from the driver’s seat and striding across the gravel in a striking red Alexander McQueen trouser suit.
The Prince and Princess of Wales live at Adelaide Cottage in Windsor Great Park, just a short 3.6-mile drive from the King’s Berkshire residence, close enough for a quick spin rather than a full motorcade.
While royal engagements often come with a driver in tow, getting behind the wheel is hardly without precedent.
Queen Elizabeth II famously loved driving around her private estates, often at the wheel of a Range Rover, while Prince Philip once played chauffeur for former US President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama during their 2016 visit to Windsor.
The tradition continues today in slightly greener form. King Charles has developed a fondness for eco-friendly vehicles and has been spotted driving electric cars and even hydrogen-powered models reflecting his long-standing environmental interests.
