After 1923's Finale, Brandon Sklenar And Taylor Sheridan Are Set To Collaborate Again
When 1923 aired its Season 2 finale, it was clear that that chapter of Spencer Dutton's story had come to a close, and to this day, it's unclear if Brandon Sklenar will play the cowboy again in an upcoming Yellowstone project. However, while his future in that world is uncertain right now, what is certain is the fact that Sklenar is set to collaborate with Yellowstone's mastermind, Taylor Sheridan, again on a new project.

Not long after 1923 came to a close on the 2025 TV schedule (you can watch it with a Paramount+ subscription, by the way), it was announced that the show's star and creator would collaborate again. According to THR, Sklenar will star in Sheridan's film F.A.S.T., which is an action thriller that's been in the works for quite some time.
Reportedly, talks are happening right now between Warner Bros Discovery and Paramount to make this movie happen. Also, it was reported that the feature package will include 1923's star, Sklenar, as well as its primary director and cinematographer Ben Richardson, who has worked with Sheridan on the aforementioned prequel as well as 1883, Mayor of Kingstown and Yellowstone.
In a statement about F.A.S.T. and the team set to work on it with Sheridan, Warn Bros. Motion Picture Group's Michael De Luca and Pam Abdy made their enthusiasm for the project very known, explaining:
The breadth of Taylor Sheridan's body of work is simply astounding and unparalleled in sheer excellence and consistent quality and we could not be more honored to be making this film with him. With the hugely talent director Ben Richardson behind the camera and the exceptional producing talents of Heyday Films and Bosque Ranch, we are thrilled to have such an incredible creative team bringing F.A.S.T. to the big screen.
Based on the creative team and star alone, I'm also 'thrilled' about F.A.S.T.
This film, which Sheridan has written and is reportedly producing, will be his first movie since 2021's Those Who Wish Me Dead. Before creating Yellowstone, his best-known works were movies like Sicario, Hell or High Water and Wind River. So, this new project marks an exciting return to the medium that got him started as the writer we know today.
Paramount Plus: from $7.99 a month/$79.99 a yearIf you want access to almost the full Sheridan-verse, you'll need a Paramount+ subscription. Luckily, plans start at $7.99 per month, and you can upgrade to Premium for $12.99 per month to get Showtime and no ads. View Deal
Also, this movie fits right in the super producer's wheelhouse. According to the report, F.A.S.T. will follow a former special forces commando who is hired by the DEA to head a black ops strike team against drug dealers. The catch is, these dealers are protected by the CIA. So, if you like Sicario or Lioness, this sounds like the film for you.
Overall, this sounds like a fun project that fits within the writer's catalog of work, and it seems like a great vehicle for Brandon Sklenar to continue his growing movie career. In the world of film, he's had breakout moments in films like It Ends With Us and Drop. He's also set to star in the book-to-screen adaptation of The Housemaid on the 2025 movie schedule, further solidifying himself as a star both in and outside of the Yellowstone world.
F.A.S.T. seems like a great next step for this actor who proved he's fit to be a leading man on 1923.
At the moment, Warner Bros is planning to release this film theatrically on April 23, 2027. Notably, this is a big update, because Sheridan wrote F.A.S.T.'s script in the mid-2010s, and since then it's been passed from Warner Bros to Amazon and back to Warner Bros with potential for releases both theatrically and on streaming. Additionally, the producer has a 'strict exclusive deal with Paramount,' which is where all his shows live, and that's led to a need to make a deal between both studios.
However, it seems like things are working out, and eventually, we'll get to see Taylor Sheridan and Brandon Sklenar reunite on the big screen for F.A.S.T. in 2027.

James Cameron has no plans to step away from directing Avatar 4 and 5, but he's not ruling it out: "I might not be able to do that"
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. Legendary director James Cameron has every intention in the world to helm the next two films in the Avatar franchise, the fourth and fifth. With the series' third film, Avatar: Fire and Ash, on the immediate horizon, Cameron is assuring fans he's planning to ride it out till the end. That said, he's also offered the caveat that he might not have the energy to spend years making them. "I mean, there's no reason not to. I'm healthy, I'm good to go," Cameron tells Empire, before qualifying his answer. "I'm not going to rule it out. I mean, I've got to make it in a vigorous way, to handle the kind of volume and energy of the work for another six or seven years. You know what I mean? I might not be able to do that." Cameron is 70, and it seems he has no plans to slow down whatsoever, with an Avatar animated anthology series on the way alongside the pair of sequels. Meanwhile, Fire and Ash is being hailed as "pure James Cameron wow." And with both films so far reaching the absolute pinnacle of box office receipts - in the billions - it's incredibly likely that all three of the next films will rake in piles and piles of cash. But if Cameron does wind up having to step back from directing Avatar 4 or 5, he's already got a model in mind for the kind of relationship he'd like to have with whichever filmmaker might replace him. "I had a great working relationship – and I'm using this as an example, not as an answer - with Robert Rodriguez on [Battle Angel Alita]," Cameron states, making it clear he's not naming Rodriguez as his potential Avatar successor. "He honoured what I had written. We worked very collaboratively. If I can, I'll just do it." Avatar: Fire and Ash arrives in theaters on December 19.

Landman Season 2: Release date, cast and plot details
By Aman Shukla Published on August 5, 2025, 19:54 IST After a buzzworthy debut that lit up Paramount+, Landman is gearing up for a high-octane return. Season 2 is officially happening, and fans are already counting the days. With filming wrapped in Texas and a stacked cast—including some exciting new faces—there's a lot to unpack about what's coming next. So, if you've been dying to know when Billy Bob's back in boots or how the oil drama heats up, here's the full scoop on Landman Season 2. When Is Landman Season 2 Coming Out? Mark the date: Landman Season 2 premieres November 17, 2025, only on Paramount+. Shooting kicked off in April 2025 down in Texas, and they've moved fast—just like Season 1's production. Expect weekly drops, not a binge-style dump, so get ready to settle in for another slow-burn season of oil-soaked chaos and high-stakes drama. Some earlier rumors hinted at a 2026 release, but Paramount+ has confirmed the fall 2025 date. So, no need to wait too long to dive back into the drama-filled world of derricks, deals, and danger. Who's In and Who's Out? The Cast of Season 2 Landman Season 2 brings back the heavy hitters and adds some fresh energy to the mix. Here's who you'll see: Billy Bob Thornton returns as Tommy Norris, the smooth-talking crisis fixer caught between the oil game and his messy personal life. His role? Still the heartbeat of the show. Demi Moore is back as Cami Miller, now stepping up big-time after her husband Monty's death. With Tommy's help, she's about to learn just how brutal the business of oil can be. Andy Garcia is also returning as cartel boss Galino—his presence adds serious edge to the show. Joining him is Stefania Spampinato , playing his wife, which should deepen the cartel drama even more. Ali Larter reprises her role as Angela Norris, Tommy's unpredictable ex-wife. Expect more emotional fireworks there. Familiar faces like Jacob Lofland, Michelle Randolph, Paulina Chávez, Kayla Wallace, James Jordan, Mark Collie, and Colm Feore are all sticking around too, keeping the ensemble strong and consistent. New this season: Sam Elliott joins the main cast, though his role's still under wraps. Thornton's called him a mentor, so expect something impactful. Also joining: J. Smith-Cameron ( Succession ), Guy Burnet, and Miriam Silverman—bringing new characters, new tension, and more conflict to the oil patch. One person you won't see? Jon Hamm. His character, Monty Miller, met a dramatic end in the Season 1 finale, so his time in West Texas is officially over. What's the Story in Season 2? While Paramount+ hasn't dropped an official synopsis yet, we've got a pretty good idea of what's coming—thanks to the explosive Season 1 finale and a few behind-the-scenes teases. Tommy's Juggling Act: He's still trying to balance shady oil deals, cartel ties, and family drama. His dynamic with Cami deepens as he helps her navigate the industry Monty left behind. Cami Steps Up: After losing her husband, Cami finds herself thrown into the deep end at M-Tex Oil. With no real experience, she leans on Tommy—but expect her to carve out her own path, too. Cartel Trouble: Tommy's alliance with Galino is only going to get messier. With Andy Garcia's cool, calculating presence and Stefania Spampinato's new character adding to the intrigue, there's bound to be danger on both sides of the law. Fresh Faces, New Fights: The new characters aren't just background noise. J. Smith-Cameron's role could tie into corporate or legal drama, while Guy Burnet's engineer character might stir things up on the ground level. Family Fallout: Tommy's family life remains a mess. His ex-wife Angela is still around, and his daughter Ainsley (Michelle Randolph) continues to be a crucial emotional anchor—or perhaps a breaking point. And as with all Taylor Sheridan shows, don't expect this to stay on the surface. Season 2 will likely dive even deeper into themes like power, greed, loyalty, and the environmental price of all that black gold beneath the dirt.
