    DFW-filmed Yellowstone prequel 1883 premieres at starry Las Vegas bash

    A week ahead of 1883's long-awaited streaming debut on Paramount+, the stars of Taylor Sheridan'sYellowstone prequel headed to Vegas to see it debut on the big screen.

    On December 11, Tim McGraw, Faith Hill, Sam Elliott, and Billy Bob Thornton — who filmed on location in Fort Worth, Granbury, and Weatherford in late summer — walked the red carpet before screening the first two episodes, giving lucky fans their first glimpse of the epic cast together, onscreen and off.

    1883 premieres on December 19 and is being built up as one of the buzziest new shows of the year. It follows Yellowstone's Dutton family "as they embark on a journey west through the Great Plains toward the last bastion of untamed America," Paramount+ says. "The series is a stark retelling of Western expansion, and an intense study of one family fleeing poverty to seek a better future in America’s promised land — Montana."

    Real life husband-and-wife McGraw and Hill star as patriarch and matriarch James and Margaret Dutton; Hollywood legend Elliott as Shea Brennan, described as "a tough-as-nails, handsome cowboy with immense sadness in his past;" and Isabel May as the Duttons' teenage daughter and the series' narrator.

    And then there's Thornton, who portrays U.S. Marshal Jim Courtright. In the official trailer, he gets a killer line about Fort Worth.

    Seemingly absent from the premiere was Tom Hanks, who makes a guest appearance in the series as three-star general inspired by General George Meade, according toPeople.

    Deadline reports series creator and Weatherford resident Sheridan introduced the screening at Wynn Las Vegas' Encore Theater, which was followed by an after-party at SW Steakhouse on the property, featuring a custom 1883 light show on the resort’s Lake of Dreams. Throughout the night, they report, a five-piece orchestra played the score of 1883, composed by Brian Tyler.

    Viewers will finally get the chance to see the highly anticipated series — including scenes shot in an Old West town erected in the Fort Worth Stockyards — when it drops Sunday, December 19.

    A word of warning, People notes: "Unlike Yellowstone, the entirety of 1883 will not air on the Paramount Network. Only the first two episodes will air on the channel, following the December 19 and December 26 episodes of Yellowstone. This way, fans can get a taste of the show before committing to the network's streaming platform, Paramount+ (where the rest of the series will run)."

    For those who can't get enough, the "Official Yellowstone Podcast," recorded at the Wynn, launched last week. The podcast, hosted by series star Jefferson White (Jimmy) brings listeners exclusive interviews from the cast, crew, and special guests.

    Stars Sam Elliott, Gratiela Brancusi, and LaMonica Garrett.

    Launch amusement center with restaurant-bar lands in Lewisville

    A new trampoline park and amusement center has landed in Lewisville: Called Launch Family Entertainment, it's a concept from Rhode Island opening at 2460 S. Stemmons Fwy. at Lakepointe Crossing in a space that was previously home to Balaxi party center and before that Glow Zone.

    According to a release, it opens June 14.

    Launch was founded in Warwick, Rhode Island in 2012, has since expanded to 30 locations in 15 states. Lewisville is the company's first center in Texas; there's a Houston location in the works, as well.

    It started out as a trampoline park but over the years has expanded with more games and attractions, as well as a premium restaurant and bar to attract customers of all ages.

    The facility features indoor trampolines, a ninja course, rock climbing, ropes course, arcade with 40 games including ski-ball and Halo, virtual reality, and bowling.

    The Lewisville location spans 47,000 square feet — 4,000 feet of which comprises a safe area for younger kids called Joey Town, featuring slides, giant jungle gym, mini grocery store, mini ice cream shop, and mini airplane.

    The restaurant is called Krave Restaurant and Bar, and serves American fare, with pizzas made from scratch, chicken tenders, nachos, salads, buffalo wings, and giant pretzels. It has a full bar with cocktails plus local and seasonal beers. An ice cream bar with craft sundaes and shakes features ice cream from Denton's acclaimed Beth Marie's.

    Introducing the concept to Texas is co-owner and operator John Day, his wife Lindsey, and three other families, who say they are passionate about bringing exciting, community-focused entertainment to the area.

    The location was in the works for a year. According to Day, they chose Lewisville because there weren't many options that could keep both parents and kids entertained in one place.

    "There’s stuff for toddlers, teenagers, and adults," John says. "Parents forever have been sitting in the old school trampoline park counting down the minutes until they could go, and now mom and dad can have date night in our restaurant and bar."

    Ticket prices vary depending on time and duration, but start at $25 to $40 for an hour, which includes access to trampolines, dodgeball, and other attractions. Some locations also offer summer passes.

    “We’re incredibly excited to introduce the Launch brand to the great state of Texas,” says Craig Erlich, CEO of Launch Entertainment, in a statement. “Lewisville is a vibrant, family-oriented community and the perfect place for our first park in the region. We look forward to creating a space where families can come together, celebrate, and enjoy unforgettable experiences.”
