With 1923 returning for another thrilling season, the cast isn’t holding back when it comes to spilling behind-the-scenes secrets. From on-set challenges to unexpected friendships, the stars of the Yellowstone prequel are sharing juicy details that fans won’t want to miss.

Julia Schlaepfer, who plays Alexandra, opened up about the immense pressure she felt joining such a massive franchise. She admitted she was nervous about living up to Yellowstone and 1883, especially since her character embarks on a completely new journey in Season 2. Unlike the first season, where Alex and Spencer were constantly together, filming for Season 2 kept them apart, both on and off-screen. According to Julia, this shift in their dynamic mirrored their characters’ struggles, making it all the more emotional to portray.

One of the biggest revelations? Julia and her co-star Brandon Sklenar (Spencer) formed a close bond while filming in Africa during Season 1. She described it as an intimate and intense experience, with the duo relying on each other as they battled the elements, exhaustion, and even food poisoning. This closeness made their on-screen romance even more believable—so much so that Julia didn’t hesitate to confirm that Spencer is, indeed, a great kisser!

However, fans hoping for a happily-ever-after for Spencer and Alexandra might be in for a heartbreak. With the characters separated for most of Season 2, their love story takes a darker turn. Julia hinted that Alexandra’s motivations shift dramatically as she embraces a new maternal instinct and fights for her future family. And while there’s still speculation about whether Spencer and Alex’s child could be an ancestor of John Dutton, Julia admitted that even the cast isn’t sure where their story ultimately leads.

Brandon Sklenar also weighed in on Spencer’s emotional journey, revealing that his character carries deep wounds from his past. Season 2 will explore his vulnerability in new ways, showing a different side of the tough, battle-hardened warrior. According to Brandon, the stakes for Spencer have never been higher—every decision is now a matter of life or death.

But Spencer and Alexandra aren’t the only couple fans are eager to see. Harrison Ford and Helen Mirren, who play Jacob and Cara Dutton, teased that their characters will face even greater hardships this season. Ford described Jacob as a survivor forced to adapt to an ever-changing world, while Mirren emphasized that Cara’s strength will be tested like never before. Their relationship remains a pillar of the show, built on years of shared struggle and unwavering love.

With so many twists, turns, and revelations, 1923 Season 2 promises to be an emotional rollercoaster. Which cast member’s secrets surprised you the most? Let me know in the comments, and stay tuned for more exclusive updates!
