Harrison Ford at Odds with Producer Taylor Sheridan Over ‘1923’ Cancellation

Harrison Ford is fuming over producer Taylor Sheridan deciding to pull the plug on his Yellowstone spin-off 1923 — even before its second season gallops back to TV, tipsters tell GLOBE.

After a two-year wait, 1923 returned to the small screen on Feb. 23. But sources squeal that franchise mastermind Sheridan has already said so long to the hit Western — which stars Ford as Jacob Dutton, grandfather to Kevin Costner’s Yellowstone rancher John Dutton.

“Taylor feels like he told the story he wanted to tell and is done with it,” sources an insider. “He’s sticking to his guns even though he got a lot of pressure to continue, since 1923 is a big moneymaker.”

And sources say that some of the pressure came from 82-year-old Ford, who has reportedly pulled down $1 million per episode to star alongside British film legend Helen Mirren in the prequel about the Dutton clan’s rise to power and riches.

A friend squeals that Ford loved that the show was shot on location in Butte, Mont., where the seasoned pilot could make a quick flight from the home in Jackson Hole, Wyo., that he shares with wife Calista Flockhart.

But the pal says that even more than the fat paycheck and convenience, “Harrison loved the physical demands the show put on him. At his age, it was good incentive to stay in shape. Harrison grew up loving Western movies and TV shows, and getting paid millions to play cowboy was just catnip to him!”

The confidant claims that feisty Ford butted heads with Sheridan over his decision to wrap it up now. But sources close to the production say there is no truth that there’s a feud between the two men.

And while the actor’s rep insists it’s untrue that Ford is upset about the show ending, the pal dishes: “Harrison said he even came up with ideas to extend the series but it was like talking to a brick wall with Taylor. Getting thrown off his horse is leaving a bitter taste in his mouth!”
