Luke Grimes Explains Why Kayce Spinoff Is Now Titled 'Marshals'

The rename signals Yellowstone roots without overreliance on franchise branding.

Overview

CBS confirmed the project dropped its working title, Y: Marshals, with the Yellowstone “Y” remaining in the logo but not in the official name.
Grimes said the change reflects confidence that viewers will recognize the show’s world once they see Kayce Dutton.
Marshals premieres Sunday, March 1, 2026, at 8 p.m. ET on CBS, with episodes available on Paramount+ after broadcast.
The series follows Kayce leaving the Dutton Ranch to serve as a U.S. Marshal in Montana, drawing on his cowboy and Navy SEAL background.
Spencer Hudnut leads as creator/showrunner; returning cast includes Brecken Merrill, Gil Birmingham, and Mo Brings Plenty, with Kelsey Asbille’s status unclear and newcomers Logan Marshall-Green, Arielle Kebbel, Ash Santos, Tatanka Means, and Brett Cullen joining.
