00:00Here's five reasons why we think the Yellowstone prequel, 1923, will be a television game changer.
00:05Number one, Harrison Ford is Jacob Dutton.
00:08Enough said, let's be honest, no one can touch Harrison Ford.
00:10He's literally Han Solo and Indiana Jones.
00:13Now he's taken on the role of Jacob Dutton, ancestor to Kevin Costner's John Dutton.
00:18Number two, Helen Mirren is playing Kara Dutton.
00:20Long live the queen, am I right?
00:21This is the Yellowstone, and you have no rights here.
00:26Close second on that list, we know that Helen Mirren will dominate.
00:28Men kill quick, with a bullet or a noose, but their fight is with me, and I kill much slower.
00:36Number three, Jerome Flynn as Banner Crichton.
00:39In our estimation, Jerome Flynn is a strong contender for Game of Thrones MVP,
00:43thanks to his incomparable performance as a lovable sellsword, Rob.
00:46He's welcome back on our screens any day of the week.
00:49Number four, 1923 is a fascinating time in history.
00:52Taking place between the end of one world war and the start of another,
00:55the show is set against a really captivating historical backdrop.
00:58We meet the Duttons at a time when the massive fallout from the first of those global conflicts
01:02is still being felt the world over,
01:04and issues like prohibition and challenging American society,
01:07the ways the population had never encountered before.
01:09Number five, the uncanny parallels between 1923 and 2022.
01:13Look, it's no secret that the globe is dealing with some pretty heavy issues at the moment.
01:16Many of them look like they'll be reflected in 1923,
01:18which could well give us some pretty valuable insights
01:20into the situation in which we currently find ourselves in.
01:23If the trailers are anything to go by,
01:251923 will tackle all of this and more,
01:27helping us forge new passports.
01:29It's gonna be the last thing you ever do.
01:36You don't want to miss this
01:37when it premieres on Paramount Plus on December 19.
01:40We can't wait.
