Prolific series creator Taylor Sheridan is setting up a move to NBCUniversal for TV and film after his Paramount television pact ends in late 2028.

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.

Puck says deal already done

TV’s top creator has just closed a massive deal with rival NBCUniversal for film and TV when his commitments with Paramount are up. It’s a major move for the ‘Yellowstone’ and ‘Landman’ creator, but perhaps an even bigger coup for NBCU’s Donna Langley—and suggests that her company is still playing to win.

For a couple months now, I’ve picked up chatter that Taylor Sheridan wasn’t happy with the new Paramount regime. TV’s top creator, the originator of Yellowstone and its successful spinoffs, and Landman, and Lioness, and a bunch more hit shows on Paramount+, was disappointed when most of the executives he worked with were either fired or marginalized after David Ellison bought the company in August. Some of Sheridan’s budgets have been questioned by incoming streaming chief Cindy Holland, according to sources. And Ellison had tried to insert Paramount into a separate deal that Sheridan made for an old film script at Warner Bros.

Big loss for Paramount

Where you read the trump stuff?

From the Puck stuff, it seems to be Ellison fukking up shyt at Paramount. Questioning the budgets for Sheridan, getting rid of people he fukked with on the executive level. Then it seems Sheridan was negotiating a deal with WB for an old script and Ellison tried to randomly get paramount involved.

Ellison purchase of Paramount was approved because of Trump. All the changes to CBS news are because of Trump. Apparently Trump Admin is letting Warner Bros Discovery know that only a sale to Paramount will get approved.

I get that Trump approved the purchase. Im saying Sheridan doesnt care about who owns paramount. Sheridan's issue is directly related to Ellison meddling in all his shyt. That doesnt have anything to do with Trump, that's just an idiot billionaire(Ellison) meddling in shyt thinking they know more than the creative.

Paramount may be done. Those shows are pretty much why anyone even has the service to begin with. So what will happen going forward regarding Landman, Lioness, etc? They will wrap those up in 3 years?

Paramount is leading the race to buy Warner Bros. so they're far from done.

And the fact that they're letting Sheridan leave, or didn't seemingly fight hard to keep him, is a sign that there are bigger things on their mind.

The Paramount saga is just beginning.

Mike Fleming Jr: How The Battle For ‘Yellowstone’s Taylor Sheridan Was Won, And Lost

At the end of the day, NBCUniversal’s poach of Yellowstone co-creator Taylor Sheridan from Paramount came down to money.

Damn, deal could be worth a billion

At the end of the day, NBCUniversal’s poach of Yellowstone co-creator Taylor Sheridan came down to money. Sources said that the five-year deal that begins in 2029 (earlier for movies) is at the unprecedented $1 billion territory. That is how it will work out in creator/EP and writer fees and backend, if the prolific Sheridan follows through on his plans to create 20 shows for NBC and the NBCUniversal streamer Peacock. There are slot guarantees, the equivalent of put pictures all over the place.

Cut to the things that left him feeling less than appreciated under the new regime brought in by David Ellison and Skydance since they took over the game. When Sheridan submitted an early favorite feature script of his, Capture the Flag, he was not happy to have it sent back with extensive notes from Skydance’s Goldberg, now co-chair of Paramount Pictures.

Nor was he happy upon learning that not only was his hit series Lioness in danger of being summarily canceled over budget, Paramount+ made a different series deal with Kidman and never told Sheridan it happened. That was the big blow, but there were others.

Another Sheridan series creation, The Correspondent, was removed from next year’s slate. The drama was about a war correspondent on the front lines of Afghanistan.

While Sheridan is a my-way-or-the-highway guy in a cowboy hat, he enjoyed an interactive relationship with the former regime that brought the kind of consistent success not seen since Kevin Feige hired Robert Downey Jr to play Iron Man and built the Marvel Cinematic Universe at Disney.

Whether this was former Netflix honcho Holland and Goldberg wanting to pave a new road for Paramount+, Sheridan felt dismissed and that opened the door wide for others.

They wanted him to create a show around America 250. He didn't want to get political.
