While careful plans are underway, it is clear from the new trailer that not everything is going as it should. In the trailer, Freeman says, “We’re just going to pretend that a CIA quick-reaction force did not execute a kill mission in front of CBS News?”

Special Ops: Lioness joins the growing list of Taylor Sheridan series on Paramount+, all of which have been hits so far. Fans will recall that besides Yellowstone, Sheridan launched the Yellowstone prequels, 1923 and 1883, along with Sylvester Stallone’s Tulsa King and Mayor of Kingstown.

Meanwhile, the latest addition to the title “Special Ops” leaves the door open for more series in the same world. Sheridan did the same with 1883, by making the offshoot Lawmen: Bass Reeves, with plans to tell the story of more iconic lawmen. Moreover, along the way, Sheridan casts one Hollywood icon after another.
