Yellowstone co-creator Taylor Sheridan returns to the big screen - and the Old West - to depict the Comanches' final battles with settlers in Empire Of The Summer Moon
It has been more than two years since Taylor Sheridan directed a feature film, but the Yellowstone co-creator is ready to return to the big screen.
Sheridan, 53, has optioned the non-fiction book Empire Of The Summer Moon: Quanah Parker And The Rise And Fall Of The Comanches, The Most Powerful Indian Tribe In American History, Deadline reported this week. Quanah and the Comanches were successful early on in fending off Spanish and French colonizers, and they later went to battle against US forces, but he eventually put down his weapons as settlers continued to decimate American bison herds. According to Deadline, Sheridan has had a years-long fascination with Quanah, and the massive Four Sixes ranch that he bought — with an investor group — had a lance that once belonged to the chief, though it has since been moved to a museum for safe keeping.
