Taylor Sheridan has made Yellowstone fans out of many celebrities — some of whom are even interested in working with him.
Sheridan got his start as an actor before moving on to writing scripts for movies including Sicario, Hell or High Water and Wind River. His focus later shifted to the small screen, which is how Yellowstone was born. The hit series aired from 2018 to 2024 as viewers tuned in to keep tabs on the fictional Dutton family.
The prolific producer didn’t stop there, though. Sheridan expanded his universe with spinoffs such as 1883 and 1923 — in addition to original shows Landman, Mayor of Kingstown, Lioness and Tulsa King.
“Because Paramount trusts me and gives me the time to go shoot 10 to 14 days for a television episode, we can treat it like a movie, and it looks like a movie,” Sheridan told Deadline in January 2022. “We can take the time to rehearse it and light it and build these set pieces. And if I call them and say, ‘I need two helicopters in one day,’ they just go, ‘Alright.’”
He added: “At the end of the day, to go to some of these locations where most people have never been, where you’re opening up a new world, and all of these places or characters in the story, to me, it’s fascinating.”
Sheridan’s commitment to authentic and gritty storytelling scored him major A-list actors who starred in his projects, from Kevin Costner and Harrison Ford to Billy Bob Thornton and Demi Moore.
But who else wants the chance to work with Sheridan? Blue Bloods alum Tom Selleck and Reba‘s Christopher Rich are just a few of the actors throwing their hats into the ring for future roles — keep scrolling for more examples of Sheridan’s celebrity fans.
Tom Selleck
“A good Western’s always on my list,” Selleck told Parade in December 2024 as Blue Bloods ended its 14-season run. “I miss that; I want to sit on a horse again.”
Selleck specifically showed support for pal Sam Elliott, saying, “Sam was great in [1883]. Sam’s always great. We go way, way back. I love him dearly. I’d love to work with Sam.”
Christopher Rich
“I’d like to get back and do some drama,” Rich told Us in February 2025 while reflecting on how his career has changed since suffering a “massive” stroke that left his entire left side paralyzed. “I’d really love to work with Taylor Sheridan. He builds characters. I would actually be great on Landman. I am from Texas. I’ve spent some time in Midland with the oil boys — and to have a damaged oil worker is nothing unusual at all.”
Corey Gamble
During season 4 of The Kardashians, which aired in September 2023, Kris Jenner recalled her boyfriend’s unexpected connection to Yellowstone.
“I am so excited to watch the next episode of Yellowstone,” she told Kim Kardashian and Khloé Kardashian. “So they asked Corey to be on Yellowstone. And he said no. I told him to say no. I thought he was going to have a romantic relationship.”
Gamble noted that he would have said yes to the opportunity, adding, “If it wasn’t for you, I would be a Yellowstone star.”
