Matthew McConaughey has finally provided an update on that Yellowstone spinoff show he was rumored to be a part of… and he says something could still happen in the future. It’s the crossover that fans of Taylor Sheridan shows have been waiting for, and was originally being shopped around as “2024.” Much like the 1883 and 1923 prequels dove into the past of the Dutton storyline, “2024” was supposed to continue the present storyline, and for quite some time, the star of “2024” was […]
