Paramount+ has officially locked in the return of Landman for a second season. Fans won’t have to wait too long—the new season is set to premiere on November 17, 2025, with fresh episodes dropping weekly. The announcement came via Primetimer, which also revealed exciting casting news and teased what’s next for the hit drama.
A Quick Recap of the Show
Created by Taylor Sheridan—the mind behind Yellowstone, 1883, and Mayor of Kingstown—Landman dives into the gritty, high-stakes world of the West Texas oil industry. The series first premiered in 2024 and immediately caught attention for its sharp writing, realistic setting, and powerhouse performances. At its core, the story follows Billy Bob Thornton as Tommy Norris, a crisis manager forced to juggle the demands of powerful oil companies with the struggles of the local communities caught in the middle.
Season 1 was praised for shining a light on the human cost of oil drilling—mixing corporate greed, small-town struggles, and personal conflicts into a tense, character-driven story.
Who’s Returning and Who’s New
Season 2 will see several familiar faces back on screen. Confirmed to return are:
-
Billy Bob Thornton as Tommy Norris
-
Ali Larter
-
Michelle Randolph
-
Jacob Lofland
The headline-making news, though, is the arrival of Demi Moore, who has signed on for a major role. While details about her character are still a mystery, her involvement adds another layer of star power to Sheridan’s universe.
There’s also buzz about Jon Hamm possibly joining the cast. Primetimer reports his involvement, but Paramount+ has yet to make anything official, so fans will have to wait and see what role he might take on.
What’s Next for Season 2?
While an official plot summary hasn’t been released, the story is expected to pick up right after the events of Season 1. Tommy Norris will once again be at the heart of the drama, trying to balance the competing pressures of corporate oil empires and the everyday people whose lives are directly impacted by the boom.
Just like the first season, Landman will continue drawing inspiration from the Boomtown podcast, which dug into real-life stories from the Texas oil rush. That means viewers can expect plenty of legal disputes, political battles, and deeply personal storylines woven into the larger backdrop of oilfield life.
What Fans Can Expect
If Season 1 was any indication, Season 2 will continue delivering the kind of gripping, morally complex storytelling Taylor Sheridan is known for. Expect more:
-
Power struggles between corporations and communities
-
Ethical dilemmas around money, land, and loyalty
-
High-stakes drama that explores how far people will go for power and survival
And with Sheridan at the helm, it’s safe to assume Season 2 will dive even deeper into the human cost of power, a theme he’s explored in all his major projects.
Like before, episodes will roll out on a weekly basis, giving fans time to speculate, debate, and savor every twist.
