Taylor Sheridan Rules Out Yellowstone Spinoff '6666'

He says owning the real Four Sixes ranch makes it wrong to invent fictional lives for the people who work there.

Overview

  • Sheridan told the Rodeo Time podcast that the long‑announced '6666' series will not be made and that he "would never fictionalize" the Four Sixes ranch.
  • Paramount publicly listed a 6666 project in 2021 and referenced it again at its 2022 Upfront presentation with executive producers and studios attached.
  • Sheridan and an investor group purchased the working Four Sixes ranch, and he says that responsibility to the ranch’s workers and families is the reason he will not create a scripted drama set there.
  • He has pulled together Jefferson White’s Jimmy Hurdstrom scenes from Yellowstone into a single sequence, saying that Jimmy’s arc works as a self‑contained story rather than an ongoing series.
  • Fans have accused Sheridan of reversing earlier signals after the studio announcements, but the wider Yellowstone universe continues with other spinoffs and Sheridan’s ongoing TV projects.
