Landman is coming back sooner than you might think.
At a time when new streaming hits sometimes take years to produce a second season, Taylor Sheridan‘s Texas oil dramedy is only taking 10 months to get new episodes on the air.
Season two of the series is slated to premiere Sunday, Nov. 16, and includes Sam Elliott — who was also in Sheridan’s 1883 — joining the cast (which includes returning players Billy Bob Thornton, Demi Moore, Andy Garcia and Ali Larter).
The first season set records for Paramount+, with 35 million global streaming viewers and becoming the streamer’s most-watched original series.
The new season will come right on the heels of another returning hit, Tulsa King, which premieres its third season on Sept. 21 (and likewise turned around a new season in less than a year — which is particularly impressive considering Sheridan’s Yellowstone once famously fell behind schedule; the prolific writer-producer’s current slate seems to be running like clockwork).
Landman is “set in the proverbial boomtowns of West Texas and is a modern-day tale of fortune-seeking in the world of oil rigs. 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.”
Landman stars Thornton (who was nominated for a Golden Globe for the role) as a fixer for an oil company. The series also stars Jacob Lofland, Michelle Randolph, Paulina Chávez, Kayla Wallace, Mark Collie, James Jordan and Colm Feore.
