Forget the "release date" search—Taylor Sheridan's gritty West Texas oil drama, Landman, is already back and shattering records. As of today, December 12, 2025, the highly anticipated second season is currently airing new episodes weekly on Paramount+, having premiered to critical acclaim on Sunday, November 16, 2025. This season dives deeper into the cutthroat world of the oil industry, following Tommy Norris as he navigates new power dynamics and family turmoil amidst a major oil boom.
The success of the new episodes has been so explosive that Paramount+ wasted no time, announcing an early and unprecedented renewal for a third season. This article provides the full details on the remaining Season 2 episode schedule, a complete breakdown of the star-studded cast, and what the Season 3 renewal means for the future of the series.
The Landman Season 2 Cast: Billy Bob Thornton, Demi Moore, and New Power Players
The foundation of any great Taylor Sheridan series lies in its compelling characters, and Landman Season 2 brings back fan favorites while introducing powerful new figures who threaten to upend Tommy Norris’s world. The first major change is the elevation of Tommy’s role, forcing him to confront the high-stakes corporate side of the Texas energy sector.
Here is a complete list of the main cast and the roles they play in the West Texas oil saga:
- Billy Bob Thornton as Tommy Norris: The veteran Landman who, following the fallout of Season 1, now finds himself as the President of the M-Tex Oil Company. His new corporate role puts him in direct conflict with his roots and his family.
- Demi Moore as Cami Miller: A powerful and glamorous socialite and wife of one of the biggest oil tycoons in the state. Moore’s character is a major new entity, bringing high-society intrigue and formidable business acumen to the series.
- Ali Larter as Angela Norris: Tommy’s ex-wife and a central figure in the tumultuous Norris family dynamic.
- Jacob Lofland as Cooper Norris: Tommy’s son, who begins to follow in his father’s footsteps, learning the difficult and dangerous trade of a landman from the ground up.
- Michelle Randolph as Ainsley Norris: Tommy’s daughter, whose life continues to be affected by the family’s deep ties to the volatile oil business.
- Andy Garcia as Gallino: A new character joining the cast, described as a major power player whose interests will inevitably clash with the Norris family.
- Jon Hamm as Monty: While the character tragically died in the Season 1 finale, his legacy and the consequences of his death are a major driving force for Tommy in Season 2.
The combined star power of Oscar winner Billy Bob Thornton and Hollywood icon Demi Moore ensures that the drama remains intense and the performances are top-tier, solidifying Landman as a flagship series for Paramount+.

The Future of Landman: Season 3 Renewal and Taylor Sheridan’s Vision
Perhaps the most exciting news for fans is the official confirmation that Landman has been renewed for a third season. This early renewal from Paramount+ is a testament to the show's incredible performance and its success in capturing the intense, often brutal reality of the Texas oil fields, a critical element of the American energy landscape.
A New Showrunner Takes the Helm
While Taylor Sheridan remains the creative force and co-creator, the day-to-day operations have seen a shift, which is common as his television empire expands. For Season 2, Stephen Kay stepped in as the showrunner, taking the helm from Sheridan. This transition is expected to maintain the show's authentic, slow-burn storytelling while ensuring production remains on schedule for future seasons.
What to Expect from Season 3
Although details on the Season 3 plot are scarce, the early renewal suggests a long-term plan for the Norris family saga. Given the show's focus on the cyclical nature of oil booms and busts, Season 3 will likely explore the long-term consequences of the decisions Tommy and Cooper make in the current season.
- Escalating Stakes: With Tommy in a major leadership role at M-Tex Oil Company, the stakes will move from personal survival to corporate and even political warfare.
- The Fate of the Norris Family: The relationship between Tommy, Angela, Cooper, and Ainsley will be tested as the family’s wealth and power grow, attracting more dangerous enemies and scrutiny.
- The West Texas Landscape: Expect the series to continue using the stark, unforgiving backdrop of West Texas as a character in itself, highlighting the environmental and social impact of the drilling operations.
The early renewal is a clear signal that Landman is not just a limited series but a long-running narrative designed to explore the complex, often morally compromised world of the energy sector for years to come. Fans can rest assured that the drama will continue well beyond the January 2026 finale of Season 2.
Topical Authority: Landman's Place in the Sheridan Universe
Landman is a crucial part of the "Sheridan-verse," the growing collection of interconnected dramas created by Taylor Sheridan, which includes hits like Yellowstone, 1883, 1923, and Tulsa King. However, Landman stands out by focusing on the oil and gas industry rather than the ranching or organized crime sectors.
The series is based on the popular podcast Boomtown, which detailed the real-life struggles and triumphs of the West Texas oil boom. This foundation gives the show a grounded realism, contrasting the fictionalized drama with authentic industry details, such as the role of a landman—the person responsible for negotiating mineral rights and leases.
The show's critical success and record-breaking viewership prove that audiences are hungry for authentic, character-driven dramas that explore the core industries and cultures that define modern America. The early Season 3 renewal confirms Landman's status as a major pillar in the Paramount+ streaming strategy, securing its place alongside Sheridan’s other successful franchises.
