Patrick J. Adams in The Madison: A New Sheridan Role

On March 24th, Patrick J. Adams, known for his role on suits, stars as Russell McIntosh and Taylor Sheridan's new series The Madison, now streaming on, Paramount Plus.

At 44 years old, Adams plays a wealthy New York City investment banker who's surprisingly likable and even heroic, a rare twist in Sheridan's.

World that usually mocks or kills off such urban types.

Russell is the devoted husband in a family transplanted to Montana, facing barbs from his mother-in-law play by Michelle Pfeiffer.

Adams brings charm to the part, subverting what fans expect from a Sheridan show.

He is auditioned for other projects, like the Yellowstone Prequel, 1923, but landed this different kind of character.

Adams connects deeply with Russell's life as the only man surrounded by women, much like his own family with wife Trojan, Bellicario, and their three.

Young daughters, the youngest born, just months ago.

Raised by women himself, he understands navigating that dynamic on screen with Paige, his wife, and the extended family at their retreat.

Behind the scenes, Adams enjoyed challenges like a hornet attack in an outhouse scene that required tricky makeup for his swollen face and a deliberately crude eye patch.

He even loves elk meat, a staple in the show, and recently cooked it for his family.

Season 2 was already wrapped, promising more growth for Russell, though don't hold your breath for him hopping on a horse anytime soon.

Stream, the Madison, to see this fresh take on Sheridan's rugged universe.
