Set in Michigan, the new series centres on the powerful McLusky family, power brokers in the business of incarceration. Tackling themes of systemic racism, corruption and inequality, the series provides a stark look at their attempt to bring order and justice to a town that has neither.

But while Sheridan’s vision reigns supreme, he isn’t going at it alone. In fact, the Yellowstone creator has tapped more than a few famous friends for the new release. Oscar-nominated actor Jeremy Renner stars as Mike McLusky, the titular mayor of Kingstown turned part-time gangster. Brooding and relentless, Mike struggles with the complexities of legislative life and the family business, a theme Training Day producer Antoine Fuqua knows well.

“When Taylor told me about Mayor of Kingstown, I immediately wanted to be a part of it,” executive producer Fuqua said. “The series offers a comprehensive look into the brutal prison system where sociopolitical issues run rampant. Prisons are a forgotten world to most of the population and yet represent a microcosm of society as a whole.”

Mayor of Kingstown premieres on Sunday, November 14, on Paramount+. The streaming service will also air a special simulcast event for the show after Yellowstone to help launch the new property.
