The starring couple of 1923, Jacob and Cara Dutton are portrayed by Harrison Ford and Helen Mirren. Whatever the story, Jacob arrived in the 1890s to lead the family ranch after James and Margaret both passed. Jacob and Cara don't have any children themselves, but Jacob is supposed to be James's (Tim McGraw) brother.
Paramount+ announced that legendary actors Harrison Ford and Helen Mirren will join the Yellowstone universe in the cast of 1923. Ford will play Jacob Dutton, the patriarch of the Yellowstone ranch and great-great-grand-uncle of John Dutton.
Jacob Dutton
The brother of James Dutton, Jacob (Harrison Ford) became the family patriarch in his brother's stead in the early 1900s. Married to Cara, he worked the Dutton homestead alongside his nephew, John Sr. and great-nephew Jack.
Harrison Ford plays James's brother Jacob Dutton, but Jacob and his wife Cara (Helen Mirren) don't have any children. You've seen a younger version of Spencer, played by Charlie Stover, in flashbacks on Yellowstone that were set between the two prequel series.
Jacob's wife and the unwavering matriarch of the Dutton clan on 1923, Cara is related to Yellowstone's Dutton family by marriage, and is the great-grandaunt or great-great-grandaunt of John Dutton III, who runs the ranch in the show's modern era.
But we know that Jacob was the brother of James and husband to Cara Dutton. He ends up taking over the Dutton Ranch in the 18th century from his brother when tragedy strikes and he raises James' two sons as his own. He's presumably the great-great-grand-uncle of John Dutton III.
In Yellowstone season 5, John Dutton III reveals to his daughter-in-law, Monica, that he had a brother named Peter, who died only 18 hours after being born.
Spencer Dutton is the youngest son of James and Margaret Dutton, played by Tim McGraw and Faith Hill in 1883. He and his older brother John Sr. were raised by his Uncle Jacob and Aunt Cara, played by Harrison Ford and Helen Mirren on 1923. He never met his older sister, Elsa Dutton.
Spencer had a deceased older sister named Elsa who died in either 1883 or 1884, and an older brother named John. His aunt Claire (the sister of his father), her husband Henry and their daughter Mary Abel all died before he was born. His brother John later worked for their uncle Jacob Dutton and aunt Cara.

Spencer Dutton is the younger son of James (Tim McGraw) and Margaret Dutton (Faith Hill) from the 1883 series. He is also the younger brother of John Dutton Sr (James Badge Dale). As James Dutton from 1883 was John Dutton's great-grandfather, this makes Spencer one of John's grandfathers.
James's brother, Jacob (Harrison Ford), is the leader of the Dutton family in 1923. He and his wife Cara do not have children of their own, but they helped raise their nephews.
This patrilineal bloodline ends with Tate Dutton. (Jamie Dutton's child is, at least by name, also the youngest progeny of this family.) Tate also represents the seventh generation of Dutton, which is important. We'll explain that later.
Are the Duttons a real family? The answer is no. However, while the Duttons aren't based on a specific family, Horsey Hooves reported that the family's patriarch, John Dutton, could be inspired by famous rangers like W.T. Waggoner and Bill Galt.
John Dutton II was the late father of John Dutton III and the previous owner of Yellowstone Dutton Ranch. His son took over the ranch after he retired and later died of cancer years before the start of the series in the mountains.
While the actor didn't share any additional details about the new spin-off, in a March 2023 interview with the Hollywood Reporter, Paramount Media Networks head Chris McCarthy confirmed that McConaughey would be joining the Yellowstone universe.
It might be surprising to know that the actress has red hair naturally. Kelly's beautiful shoulder red hair is why she has to wear a blonde wig in the drama. Being a redhead naturally, the producers must ensure the character's looks do not underplay her character.
The Daily Mail's source claimed Costner felt the show was moving in a direction away from the one he and Sheridan had originally agreed upon, which had apparently soured their collaboration.
