Yellowstone Creator Taylor Sheridan Moving to Peacock in 2029
Taylor Sheridan, the seasoned creator behind hit shows like “Yellowstone” and “Landman,” is taking his 101 Studios production company over to NBCUniversal’s Peacock platform and Universal Pictures in 2029. This move marks a big win for NBCUniversal, who is excited to have Sheridan on board after his successful track record at Paramount+.
“Landman,” featuring Billy Bob Thornton, set a new record on Paramount+ with a massive 35 million global views, making it the platform’s most-watched original series. Sheridan’s new deal with NBCUniversal not only allows him to bring his creative expertise to Peacock but also gives him an opportunity to venture into the world of movies in collaboration with Donna Langley, chairwoman of Universal Pictures.
This shift might impact Paramount’s future plans, as David Ellison, the new owner, had high praise for Sheridan’s work in keeping Paramount+ relevant. Despite this, Sheridan’s decision to head over to NBCUniversal showcases his desire to continue telling compelling stories and exploring new creative avenues.
