Yellowstone Prequel 1944: Release Date & Everything We Know So Far

The Yellowstone universe is expanding again, and this time it’s diving into one of America’s most turbulent eras—1944. While World War II rages overseas, another battle brews back home in Montana. The Dutton family faces new threats that could change the fate of the Yellowstone Ranch forever. With rivalries spanning generations, hidden secrets, and a fight to protect their land, Yellowstone 1944 promises to deliver intense drama and shocking revelations.

At this point in the timeline, Jacob Dutton—last seen in 1923—would be elderly, if he’s still alive. If not, a new Dutton must rise to lead the family. Could it be Spencer Dutton, the war-hardened soldier from 1923, if he survived and returned? Or perhaps Jack Dutton, who would be in his early 40s, could step into the leadership role—unless World War II has pulled him away to fight. Another intriguing possibility is Elizabeth Dutton, who could take charge while the men are at war, defying the norms of the time.

The ranch faces not only external threats but also internal turmoil. Family betrayals and power struggles could rip the Duttons apart. The U.S. government looms as a significant danger—during World War II, the federal government seized large amounts of land for military use. With Yellowstone’s vast resources and prime location, it could be a target for government acquisition. Would the Duttons risk everything to resist, even if it means breaking the law?

As Yellowstone 1944 unfolds, viewers will witness how the Dutton family navigates the chaos of wartime America. With the future of the ranch on the line and loyalties tested, the biggest question remains—how much are they willing to sacrifice to protect their legacy?
