Set in the proverbial boomtowns of West Texas, LANDMAN is a modern-day tale of fortune seeking in the world of oil rigs. Based on the notable 11-part podcast “Boomtown” from Imperative Entertainment and Texas Monthly, the series is an upstairs/downstairs story of roughnecks and wildcat billionaires fueling a boom so big, it’s reshaping our climate, our economy, and our geopolitics.
In addition to Thornton, the series stars Ali Larter (The Last Victim), Michelle Randolph (1923), Jacob Lofland (Joker 2), Kayla Wallace (When Calls the Heart), James Jordan (Yellowstone), Mark Collie (Nashville), Paulina Chávez (The Expanding Universe of Ashley Garcia), and Demi Moore (Feud: Capote Vs. The Swans). Jon Hamm (Mad Men) will star in a recurring guest role with Andy Garcia (Expendables franchise) and Michael Peña (End of Watch) also serving as guest stars.
LANDMAN is executive produced by Taylor Sheridan, David C. Glasser, David Hutkin, Ron Burkle, Bob Yari, Christian Wallace, Geyer Kosinski, Michael Friedman, and Stephen Kay. Dan Friedkin and Jason Hoch, for Imperative Entertainment, and J.K. Nickell and Megan Creydt, for Texas Monthly, also executive produce. Peter Feldman serves as co-executive producer. LANDMAN is distributed by Paramount Global Content Distribution.
The series is the latest addition to Sheridan’s growing slate on Paramount+, which includes 1923, 1883, LIONESS, MAYOR OF KINGSTOWN, TULSA KING, and LAWMEN: BASS REEVES.

Landman S2E5 is a tight, pressure‑cooker pivot. Billy Bob Thornton anchors the chaos with weary resolve, while Demi Moore and Jon Hamm sharpen the boardroom chess. West Texas grit feels lived‑in—oilfield peril, family fractures, and moral tradeoffs collide without melodrama. Taylor Sheridan’s pacing is lean, stacking stakes through practical choices and small betrayals rather than speeches. A mid‑episode turn reframes loyalties and raises the cost of survival, positioning Tommy between bankruptcy and a devil’s lifeline. Crisp, tense, and textured, it sets a clean runway for the season’s back half—proof the show’s most compelling engine is character under pressure.
