Jeremy Renner is set to return in Mayor of Kingstown Season 3, marking his first role after a life-threatening accident. The crime series is part of Taylor Sheridan’s successful television portfolio, which includes the hit show Yellowstone and its spin-offs like 1883 and 1923.
Taylor Sheridan, known for acclaimed films like Sicario and Hell or High Water, has become a TV powerhouse with his impactful creations. Apart from Mayor of Kingstown, he’s also behind other successful series like Tulsa King and Special Ops: Lioness, showcasing his prowess in diverse genres.
Similar to Yellowstone, Mayor of Kingstown unfolds as a family drama where the influential McLusky family exercises significant control over an entire town.
In contrast to the Duttons, who manage a ranching empire, the McLusky family oversees a massive supermax prison that serves as the primary source of revenue for Kingstown. While the family’s business seems legitimate, the methods they employ to sustain their empire raise questions, delving into shady practices.
