Taylor Sheridan’s neo-Western drama Landman has officially been renewed for season 3, and fans are already buzzing about what’s next for Tommy Norris and his crew.
Season 2 wrapped with major shakeups—Tommy fired from M-Tex, a new oil company born from the ashes, and family drama that refuses to quit.
With Billy Bob Thornton at the helm and a cast that includes Demi Moore, Ali Larter, and Andy García, the Paramount+ hit shows no signs of slowing down.
Here’s everything you need to know about Landman season 3.
Season 3 Is Officially Happening
Paramount+ confirmed Landman‘s third season on December 5, less than three weeks after season 2 premiered. The announcement came as no surprise given the show’s explosive viewership numbers.
Season 2’s premiere pulled in more than 9.2 million viewers within its first two days—a staggering 262% increase over season 1’s debut. Landman currently sits at the top of Nielsen’s streaming charts and ranks as one of Paramount+’s best-performing originals.
Ali Larter, who plays Tommy’s ex-wife Angela, couldn’t contain her excitement. She took to Instagram to celebrate the news.
So excited to announce we are coming back for season 3! Thank you to the fans that have made Landman such a massive success. Honored to work on this show with such exceptional actors and crew. Heart is full.
Sheridan’s Departure Won’t Derail the Show
When Taylor Sheridan announced his move from Paramount to NBCUniversal, questions swirled about the future of his Paramount+ projects. Would Landman survive the transition?
Co-creator and showrunner Christian Wallace quickly put those concerns to rest. Speaking with ScreenRant, Wallace made it clear that production plans remain unchanged.
We still have a lot of runway. We’re just going to keep doing exactly what we’ve been doing. Nothing at all has changed, so that’s for a future person to worry about.
Wallace emphasized the show’s vast potential for storytelling, noting that two seasons have barely scratched the surface.
The thing about this show is there are so many ways that this can go, and the world is so vast and big. It’s full of stories, and so far we’re two seasons in and we’ve barely skimmed the surface of what we can do and what we want to do.
How Season 2 Ended: New Company, Same Problems
Season 2’s finale delivered resolution for some storylines while planting seeds for future chaos. Tommy’s daughter Ainsley initially struggled with her college transition but found her rhythm by episode’s end, bonding with teammates during cheerleading practice.
Cooper’s arc took a darker turn when he beat a man who attempted to sexually assault Ariana. Though the assailant later died from a heart attack at the hospital, detectives initially sided against Cooper, threatening murder charges.
Rebecca stepped in to defend Cooper, and Tommy worked his connections with Sheriff Walt Joeberg to convince the police chief to drop charges. Crisis averted—for now.
Tommy Starts CTT Oil Exploration and Cattle
After getting axed from M-Tex by Cami in the penultimate episode, Tommy wasted zero time licking his wounds. Instead, he launched his own venture: CTT Oil Exploration and Cattle.
Tommy convinced cartel boss Danny “Gallino” Morrell to leave M-Tex and invest as an equal partner. He positioned Cooper as president while taking the senior vice president role himself.
The board includes Nate, Rebecca, Dale, T.L., and Boss—a solid crew poached directly from Cami’s operation. That move is guaranteed to create fireworks in season 3.
What to Expect in Season 3
Paramount+ hasn’t released an official synopsis yet, and even the cast remains in the dark. Billy Bob Thornton recently told Men’s Journal he knows nothing about season 3’s direction.
Taylor plays it very close to the vest. He doesn’t tell any of us what he’s up to. He’ll probably tell me, maybe after I get the first script. Then he’ll tell me a few things that are going to happen.
Despite the secrecy, viewers can safely anticipate several key storylines unfolding.
Tommy vs. Cami: Oil War Incoming
Tommy didn’t just leave M-Tex—he gutted it. Poaching employees and stealing a cartel boss as his business partner? Cami won’t take that lying down.
Expect corporate warfare mixed with personal vendettas as these two former colleagues turned rivals battle for West Texas oil dominance.
Family Dynamics Continue to Implode
Angela will undoubtedly continue stirring the pot at family dinners. Ainsley’s college journey offers fresh territory for conflict and growth.
Cooper’s legal troubles may be resolved, but his relationship with Ariana and his new role as company president will bring fresh challenges. Running an oil company at his age while managing cartel connections? Recipe for disaster—or triumph.
Expected Cast for Season 3
While Paramount+ hasn’t confirmed casting details, main players are expected to return:
- Billy Bob Thornton as Tommy Norris
- Ali Larter as Angela Norris
- Michelle Randolph as Ainsley Norris
- Jacob Lofland as Cooper Norris
- Demi Moore as Cami Miller
- Paulina Chavez as Ariana
- Andy García as Danny “Gallino” Morrell
- Kayla Wallace as Rebecca Savage
- Colm Feore as Nate Bethel
- Sam Elliott as T.L.
Supporting characters like Sheriff Walt Joeberg (Mark Collie), Dale (James Jordan), Boss (Mustafa Speaks), and BR (Caleb Martin) will likely make appearances as well.
