Taylor Sheridan is poised to make NBCUniversal his TV and film production home under a lucrative long-term deal starting in three years after he will have spent a decade with Paramount Television.
Sheridan has emerged as a prolific series creator and busy showrunner who has delivered a string of series for Paramount and its platforms: "Yellowstone" and its spinoffs, as well as "Tulsa King," "Lioness," "Landman" and "Mayor of Kingstown," among others.

News that Sheridan is closing a megabucks deal with NBCUniversal, as courted by entertainment chief Donna Langley, was first reported Sunday by Puck. NBCUniversal declined comment as did Paramount. It's believed that the film component of the deal will take effect next year. The television component will follow after Sheridan's contractual obligations to Paramount are fulfilled in 2028.
It was no secret that Sheridan's representatives at CAA were testing the waters for a new overall deal arrangement for the producer. Sheridan has blazed his own trail in the streaming era, with a fast-paced production process that he steers with a strong hand. He's even invested in two ranches in Texas for filming locations and other production assets that are used in his shows.
Sheridan found a niche at Paramount Television with the success of the "Dallas"-esque Western soap "Yellowstone." That show debuted as a linear series on the Paramount Network cabler in 2018. Most of the Sheridan canon is in the streaming realm, where the series protocols are a fit with his auteur-ish working habits. Sheridan does have a high-profile "Yellowstone"-adjacent drama series poised to bow on CBS next spring, "Y: Marshals."
Paramount has undergone massive transformation since August when the studio was acquired by David Ellison's Skydance Media. The core team of executives that helped shepherd Sheridan's rise have mostly exited the company.
Sheridan and Paramount have a long runway ahead on the bank of TV shows that he has amassed, with many more in the hopper for 2026 and beyond.
