Kurt Russell said that the story of his character resembled the events from his life

As mentioned, The Madison started streaming on March 14, 2026. The show features Kurt appearing as 'Preston Clyburn.' The character dies in the first episode. This also leads to an emotional situation for the remaining part of the show as his family, including 'Preston’s' wife, 'Stacy,' deals with the loss that they have faced.

While speaking to The National recently, Kurt Russell stated that when he was learning more about the character he plays on the show, he felt like his story was being brought on screen. Kurt mentioned that certain scripts always hit him hard, and he felt like it was an important part of the show’s potential, which eventually helped to attract more viewership. Kurt said one of the main reasons for this was the authentic writing. Kurt further stated:

“It was so powerful for it to have a serious, true love relationship with someone, and then for one of those people to go, and for the other to realise they didn’t know how good it was - that they didn’t know there was so much more to it, and they’re not going to let that go.”

Kurt Russell and Goldie Hawn met each other while working on a movie musical

Kurt Russell and Goldie Hawn’s love story dates back to 1966 when they worked together in a movie musical, The One and Only, Genuine, Original Family Band. While they were not in touch for a long time, the duo started dating in 1983 and had a son, Wyatt, three years later, in 1986. In between all these, Kurt and Golden continued collaborating on other projects and appeared at multiple events, including the Academy Awards in 1989.

While Kurt and Goldie’s relationship has created headlines for different reasons over the years, the pair never tied the knot. The couple has addressed the matter on various occasions. Back in 2023, Kurt Russell and Goldie Hawn told Variety:

“We constantly got asked, ‘When are you going to get married? Why aren’t you married?’ And we were like, Why does anybody care about that? We’d asked our kids if they cared about it. They didn’t. We didn’t.”
