1923 cast: All actors & characters

While 1923 is a spinoff of Yellowstone, it’s similar to 1883 – its brutal predecessor – in that it features a brand-new cast, with a few limited exceptions.

The official synopsis reads: “1923 will introduce a new generation of the Dutton family and explore the early twentieth century when pandemics, historic drought, the end of Prohibition and the Great Depression all plague the mountain west, and the Duttons who call it home.”
