In one of the combined company\u2019s first major moves, it poached <em>Stranger Things<\/em> creators <strong>Matt Duffer<\/strong> and <strong>Ross Duffer<\/strong> from their longtime Netflix home with a similarly huge film and television deal.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Sheridan, 55, is one of the industry\u2019s biggest talents, having conceived the <em>Yellowstone<\/em> universe, its spinoffs, <em>Tulsa King<\/em>, <em>Special Ops: Lioness<\/em> and <em>Mayor of Kingstown<\/em>. A-listers including <strong>Kevin Costner<\/strong>, <strong>Harrison Ford<\/strong>, <strong>Helen Mirren<\/strong>, <strong>Sam Elliott<\/strong> and <strong>Jeremy Renner<\/strong> have graced his work over the years.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">His NBCUniversal deal is expected to be a rich one, as <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hollywoodreporter.com\/tv\/tv-news\/taylor-sheridan-leave-paramount-for-nbcuniversal-film-tv-1236410489\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:The Hollywood Reporter noted;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \"><em>The Hollywood Reporter<\/em> noted<\/a>, though he will have to create wholly new IP when he does make the jump in a few years.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">As is typical in these deals, Paramount owns <em>Yellowstone<\/em> and the other franchises he has created for that company. Still, Sheridan&#8217;s programming has become a dramatic backbone of the Paramount+ streaming platform, and will likely continue to be for years to come.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">In other Sheridan news, it was revealed earlier this month that Oscar winners <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/parade.com\/tv\/lioness-season-3-2026\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Nicole Kidman and Zoe Salda\u00f1a are confirmed to return;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \"><strong>Nicole Kidman<\/strong> and <strong>Zoe Salda\u00f1a<\/strong> are confirmed to return<\/a> for season 3 of Lioness on Paramount+.
