Landman Season 2 Release Date: Here’s a human-touch article on Landman Season 2—what to expect, when it’s released, who’s returning, and what’s changed—in about 650 words. If you’d like a shorter or more in-depth version (e.g., without any spoilers), I can do that too.
Taylor Sheridan’s Landman made waves upon its premiere in November 2024: a groundbreaking neo-Western drama set in the oil fields of West Texas, where power, profit, and politics intersect dangerously.
The show, based on the Boomtown podcast, tells the story of Tommy Norris (Billy Bob Thornton), a landman caught in corporate intrigue, family tensions, and moral compromises.
With Season 1 concluding in January 2025, fans have been anxiously awaiting the next chapter – and now, we know quite a bit.
Release Date: When will Season 2 release?
Paramount+ (the show’s home page) has officially confirmed that Landman Season 2 will premiere on Sunday, November 16, 2025.
Earlier reports alternated between November 17, 2025, but the most consistent and frequently reported date is November 16.
The show is expected to return with a weekly release schedule, rather than releasing all episodes at once.
Since production on Season 2 began in Texas in April 2025 and the cast completed filming by summer, a November launch allows ample time for post-production, editing, and marketing.
Cast: Who’s Back, Who’s New
One of the strengths of Landman is its ensemble cast—and Season 2 is only getting richer.
Returning Cast
- Billy Bob Thornton returns as Tommy Norris, who will now handle not only land deals but also executive responsibilities.
Primetimers - Ali Larter, Michelle Randolph, Paulina Chavez, Jacob Lofland, and Kayla Wallace are among the cast members confirmed to return.
- Demi Moore, who played a major role in Season 1, will also star in Season 2.
- Sam Elliott has been elevated to series regular status, adding seriousness and star power to the cast.
New Faces and Roles
- Guy Burnet is joining the cast as engineer Charlie Newsom.
- Miriam Silverman will play Greta Stidham, an admissions consultant whose exact role in the oil industry remains unclear.
- Stefania Spampinato joins as Gallino’s (Andy Garcia) wife, hinting at deeper cartel and relationship stakes.
- The cast expansion suggests the show is moving beyond its initial core conflicts—more external players, more conflicting motivations, and more room for alliances and betrayals.
Story and What to Expect
Although the show’s creators are keeping many details under wraps, several storylines from Season 1 are set to continue:
- At the end of Season 1, following the death of Monty Miller (Jon Hamm), Tommy Norris takes over as head of M-Tex Oil.
- His relationship with Cammie Miller (Moore’s character) changes: she becomes a controlling mistress, while he must navigate the harsh realities of the oil business
- The presence of the cartel (Galleno, played by Andy Garcia) becomes even more significant. Tommy must navigate the uneasy alliance between legitimate oil operations and organized crime, while dealing with ethical tensions.
- Expect heightened political, environmental, and interpersonal stakes: land rights, regulatory resistance, corporate espionage, family dynamics, and moral compromises.
EW.com - In interviews, Thornton himself has teased how attracted Tommy is to his new executive role and how intimidated he is by it – reluctant power, internal conflicts, and external enemies will test him.
Trailers and Teasers
Although no full official trailer has been heavily promoted yet, Paramount+ has released a short 15-second teaser confirming the premiere date and giving a glimpse of the tension in the oil field.
You can also view the detailed trailer/preview material already uploaded to the YouTube platform:
There’s also a teaser trailer video with early visual cues and a reminder of the dates.
The visuals are cast in the same dusty, rugged colors as Season 1: sunlit oil rigs, furrowed brows, distant vistas, and moments of quiet danger. The aim is to evoke the world you know Landman inhabits, but with more energy and deeper conflict.
Final Thoughts
Season 2 of Landman is poised for a balanced yet ambitious progression: new alliances, sharp conflicts, more risks, and a greater burden on Tommy’s shoulders. With a confirmed premiere on November 16, 2025, on Paramount+, and a returning and expanding cast, the show is poised to satisfy fans of strong drama and character-driven tension.
