Is ‘1923' returning for season 3? Everything we know so far
The Yellowstone prequel 1923, starring Harrison Ford and Helen Mirren, has captivated audiences with its gritty portrayal of the Dutton family's struggles in the early 20th century. After a dramatic Season 2 finale on April 6, 2025, fans are buzzing with questions: Will there be a 1923 Season 3? What's next for the Duttons? Here's everything we know so far about the future of 1923. The Current Status of 1923 Season 3
As of May 8, 2025, Paramount+ has not officially announced a third season for 1923 . Multiple reports indicate that the series was originally planned as a two-season limited series, a vision confirmed by creator Taylor Sheridan. In a 2022 interview with Deadline , Sheridan stated he needed 'two blocks' of eight episodes to tell the story, suggesting Season 2 was intended to wrap up the narrative. Actor Brandon Sklenar, who plays Spencer Dutton, further reinforced this in a 2023 Hollywood Reporter interview, describing Season 2 as the 'bookend' of the 1923 story. Why a Season 3 Seems Unlikely
The Season 2 finale, 'A Dream and a Memory,' provided significant closure for key characters. Spencer Dutton (Brandon Sklenar) and Alexandra Dutton (Julia Schlaepfer) faced tragic yet conclusive arcs, with a voice-over by Elsa Dutton (Isabel May) narrating Spencer's life up to 1969. This suggests the story was designed to end.
Paramount+ has confirmed the next Yellowstone prequel, 1944 , which will explore the Duttons during World War II. This shift in timeline indicates the franchise is moving forward rather than extending 1923 . Where to Watch 1923
Both seasons of 1923 are streaming exclusively on Paramount+. If you're catching up, Season 1 has eight episodes, while Season 2 has seven, culminating in the two-hour finale.

'The Fantastic Four: First Steps' holds its lead atop the box office
LOS ANGELES — Marvel's first family stumbled in theaters in its second weekend, but still held on to the top spot at the box office. 'The Fantastic Four: First Steps' earned $40 million from 4,125 North American theaters, a 66% drop from a healthy $117.6 million debut. The film was accompanied by comedies 'The Bad Guys 2' and 'The Naked Gun' in the top three box office rankings. The superhero movie dipped significantly more than Marvel's previous film, 'Thunderbolts,' which took a 55% dive in its second weekend. 'First Steps' is the last major blockbuster of the summer. It added nearly $40 million internationally in its second weekend, bringing thefilm's global total to $369 million. The movie's box office drop off was surprising given its strong reviews, said Paul Dergarabedian, senior media analyst for the data firm Comscore. Though the movie's debut weekend may have given box office results a strong push toward the $4 billion summer benchmark, August is off to a slow start, he said. 'It's a tough lift, but we might be able to get there. It really means that all the films are gonna have to stand on their own,' Dergarabedian said. 'It's gonna be about getting great reviews, having that staying power, that longevity in the marketplace.' Newcomer comedy 'The Bad Guys 2' earned second place at the box office this weekend, with $22 million from 3,852 North American theaters. That was on par with projections and also in line with the first movie in the series, which brought in $23 million in 2022. Paramount's slapstick comedy, 'The Naked Gun,' also in its debut weekend, snagged the third box office spot, earning $17 million from 3,344 locations. Jim Orr, president of domestic distribution for Universal Pictures, said the solid debut for 'The Bad Guys 2,' coupled with strong audience reaction scores, 'should point to a very long, very successful run through not only the rest of the summer, but really, I think into the fall.' James Gunn's 'Superman,' which opened four weekends ago and already crossed $550 million globally, earned $13.8 million domestically this weekend, taking the fourth spot. 'Jurassic World Rebirth' followed with $8.7 million. The horror movie 'Together' had a strong debut weekend, coming in at sixth place and earning $6.8 million domestically, proof that August is a month for edgier and off-beat films, Dergarabedian said. 'That's what this month is about. It's not just about box office,' Dergarabedian said. 'It's also about providing really interesting, rewarding movie-going experiences for audiences.' Dergarabedian said he expects highly-anticipated movies hitting theaters in the next few weeks — including 'Freakier Friday,' and Zach Cregger's horror movie 'Weapons' — to give August a needed boost. The box office is currently up 9.5% from last year. With final domestic figures being released Monday, this list factors in the estimated ticket sales for Friday through Sunday at U.S. and Canadian theaters, according to Comscore: 1. 'The Fantastic Four: First Steps,' $40 million. 2. 'The Bad Guys 2,' $22.2 million. 3. 'The Naked Gun,' $17 million. 4. 'Superman,' $13.8 million. 5. 'Jurassic World Rebirth,' $8.7 million. 6. 'Together,' $6.8 million. 7. 'F1: The Movie,' $4.1 million. 8. 'I Know What You Did Last Summer,' $2.7 million. 9. 'Smurfs,' $1.8 million. 10. 'How to Train Your Dragon,' $1.4 million.

Billy Joel Reveals His Jewish Family's Harrowing Escape from Germany During World War II: ‘They Were Hunted'
"If my grandparents had been found on the train with the documents that said Jew, they would've been sent immediately to a concentration camp. They got out. A miracle," the musician saidNEED TO KNOW Billy Joel detailed his father's family's harrowing escape from Germany during World War II in the two-part HBO documentary Billy Joel: And So It Goes "If my grandparents had been found on the train with the documents that said Jew, they would've been sent immediately to a concentration camp. They got out. A miracle," the singer said Billy said learning about his family's painful history during the war inspired him to wear a yellow star while performing onstage in 2017, to protest Donald Trump's comment about the violence that erupted at the Unite the Right white supremacist rallyBilly Joel is opening up about a painful piece of his family history. In the two-part HBO documentary Billy Joel: And So It Goes, the 76-year-old musician detailed his Jewish paternal family's harrowing journey out of Germany during World War II. Billy described how his father, Howard (born Helmut) Joel, grew up in a "well-to-do" family who were "very proud to be German" and not "practicing Jews." His grandfather, Karl Joel, meanwhile, operated a successful factory in Nuremberg that made textiles and clothing. "His business was doing very, very well, until the Nazis came to power," Billy said, explaining that his father was 10 when Adolf Hitler became chancellor of Germany and "things got nasty." "My dad would look over the fence while they were doing all these anti-Semitic speeches. I can't imagine the trauma of watching the SS parade espousing these principles," he continued. "Eventually, he couldn't even go to school." Billy's grandfather Karl soon "realized, 'This is it, I better leave while I can,' " and sold his factory "for pennies on the dollar." The family managed to cross the border into Switzerland without incident. "He was lucky," Billy said. "If my grandparents had been found on the train with the documents that said Jew, they would've been sent immediately to a concentration camp. They got out. A miracle." His family eventually made their way to Cuba in 1939, and then to the United States. Billy recalled learning the disturbing detail that the man who took over his grandfather's Nuremberg factory began using it to produce the uniforms the Nazi prisoners wore. "I didn't know any of that until I was in my mid-20s. There's still a lot I don't know," the singer said. "I didn't know my father at all, from the time I was about 8 years old until I was in my mid-20s. Tried to figure out where he was, how I could contact him, but nobody knew." Billy's parents divorced when he was 8, and his father subsequently moved to Europe. Billy, who was born in the Bronx, N.Y., and grew up on Long Island, said he played in lots of European clubs early in his career in the hopes of tracking down his father. Eventually, Billy learned that his father was living in Vienna and went to visit him at his apartment. There, he found out he had a half-brother. Billy tried to get his father to talk about his past, but he was reluctant. "He had a very strange life. He fought in the U.S. Army under General Patton. They liberated Dachau," he recounted in the documentary. "I tried to get him to talk about it, but he didn't really want to talk about his past, and I heard most of it from my brother." Billy then found out about his father's family, who did not leave Germany during the war. "They were hunted. I visited the graveyard where the Joel family is buried. And I didn't even know I had that many relatives," he said. "They wiped out my family," Billy continued. "I would've liked to have known some of these people."

Uncovering his family's experience during the war moved Billy to make a rare political statement. In August 2017, following the Unite the Right white supremacist rally in Charlottesville, Va., the "Piano Man" singer wore a yellow star on his jacket during a concert at New York City's Madison Square Garden. Billy explained in the documentary that wearing the star was his way of hitting back against President Donald Trump's response to the violent clashes that erupted at the rally. During a press conference, Trump, 79, said, "You also had people that were very fine people, on both sides." "I was angry. And I had to do something," Billy recalled. "But I didn't want to get up on a soapbox onstage and say this is wrong, so I wore the star, basically, to say, no matter what, I will always be a Jew. I am a Jew." Billy Joel: And So It Goes is available to stream on HBO Max. Read the original article on People
