About the series
'1883' is a prequel to Paramount's flagship hit, the neo-Western 'Yellowstone', created by the same acclaimed master of the genre, Taylor Sheridan. The new project will appeal not only to fans of the original, but also to viewers who value series with eventful plots, realistic historical context, carefully crafted characters and concise dialogue. All this can be found in '1883', which addresses the theme of the conquest of the last stronghold of the wild American frontier — Montana. Lack of conditions for a comfortable life, illness and injury, and numerous bandits on the road are just some of the hardships that people striving toward their dream will have to face. The show's cast includes the famous country music family duo Faith Hill and Tim McGraw, film legend Sam Elliott, and, in supporting roles, Billy Bob Thornton and Tom Hanks.
