Notable Deaths in 1923
Throughout the narrative of 1923, numerous characters have met their demise. Season one saw the deaths of Catherine Walsh, victim to a leopard attack; John Dutton Sr., killed by gunshot from Banner Creighton; Emma Dutton, by suicide off-screen; Brother Romero, shot by Hank Plenty Clouds; Hank Plenty Clouds, shot by Brother Cillian; and Brother Cillian, killed by Teonna Rainwater.
Season two of 1923 has continued this trend, witnessing the deaths of several characters, including five from the principal cast, even before the finale. Pete Plenty Clouds, initially played by the late Cole Brings Plenty and later portrayed by Jeremy Gauna, was among the first to perish in season two, dying in a duel with Marshal Kent.
Jack Dutton, played by Darren Mann, also faced a tragic end. Disobeying Jacob Dutton’s (Harrison Ford) directives in his urgency to ensure Spencer’s safe return, Jack departed the ranch and was fatally shot by men posing as deputies, dispatched by Whitfield. His death has left Elizabeth (Michelle Randolph) a widow, facing the prospect of raising their unborn child alone.
Other significant character deaths in 1923 season two include Runs His Horse (Michael Spears), Father Renaud (Sebastian Roché), Hillary (Janet Montgomery), and Paul (Augustus Prew).
Future of 1923: Will There Be a Season 3?
Brandon Sklenar, a lead actor in the series, indicated to The Hollywood Reporter in 2024 that season two is intended to be the concluding chapter for 1923. He characterized the show as “one piece — there’s just a split in the middle, but it’s all one piece. It will conclude.”
However, Paramount has not yet officially confirmed that season two will mark the series finale, leaving the door open for potential future installments.
