Kurt Russell Reveals How Taylor Sheridan’s New Series Will Avoid His Most Common Criticism

by

Taylor Sheridan’s latest series, The Madison, seems to be addressing a common criticism of his previous work: how female characters are portrayed. His past shows, like Landman, have been criticized for consistently showing women in limited roles – either upset, involved in romantic relationships, arguing, or expressing anger. However, Kurt Russell suggests The Madison will offer a different representation.

I think this show offers a really unique perspective for Taylor, focusing heavily on the female experience. It was also incredibly well-written and genuinely fun to work on – I really enjoyed myself.

The show is cleverly written. Taylor is a fantastic writer, and Michelle is a strong performer who really shines in this series. I expect Michelle will be a serious contender for awards.
