Robert Redford’s legacy is full of phenomenal movies, from "All The President’s Men" to "The Sting" and so many more. His body of work also features many great westerns, like "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid," and he was a long-time environmental activist. When you mix all that together, it makes sense why "The Madison," which just premiered on the 2026 TV schedule, was dedicated to the late actor and filmmaker. However, the show’s director, Christina Alexandra Voros, told me exactly why they chose to pay homage to him with this specific show from Taylor Sheridan.
For context, "The Madison," which is the latest show from Sheridan, follows a grieving family as they go from New York City to rural Montana after a devastating loss. It’s beautifully shot and highlights the gorgeous nature of this area very well. It also stars Michelle Pfeiffer and Kurt Russell as the matriarch and patriarch of this family that’s trying to understand what they’ve lost and what this land means to them.
