Taylor Sheridan's F.A.S.T. Set for 2027 Release

Taylor Sheridan, known for creating Yellowstone, is returning to feature films with the action thriller F.A.S.T., which will be released by Warner Bros. on April 23, 2027. The film stars Brandon Sklenar and will be directed by Ben Richardson, both of whom previously worked with Sheridan on 1923. F.A.S.T. centers on a down-on-his-luck former special forces commando recruited by the DEA to lead a covert strike team against CIA-protected drug dealers. The project is based on a script Sheridan wrote in the mid-2010s and required complex negotiations between Warner Bros. and Paramount, given Sheridan's current overall deal with Paramount. Production will be handled by Heyday Films and Bosque Ranch Productions. The film's development highlights both Sheridan's career versatility and the evolving dynamics between studios in the streaming era.
