    Paramount+'s Landman returns for season 2 on November 16, 2025, at 3 a.m. ET with weekly episodes through January 2026. The series was co-created by Taylor Sheridan (known for Yellowstone1883, and Tulsa King) and Christian Wallace.

    Season 1, which premiered on November 17, 2024, and drew over 35 million global viewers, follows Tommy Norris, a chain-smoking crisis manager for M-Tex Oil. Thornton plays him as a fixer who handles rig explosions, cartel threats and family fallout in the high-stakes Permian Basin, where one deal can build or bury fortunes.

    The ten-episode run ended with Monty's sudden death, thrusting Tommy into the presidency amid banker scepticism and widow Cami's power grab. Season 2 ramps up with a major new oil discovery, forcing Tommy to navigate boardroom betrayals, a risky drilling push and deepening family rifts. Cami clashes with him over control, while Cooper's fledgling crew faces brutal industry tests. 

    Cartel ties tighten and Tommy's estranged father emerges, exposing buried secrets. Thornton's Golden Globe-nominated turn anchors the raw look at how oil's volatility erodes personal bonds, blending dark humour with hazard in a world where survival demands compromise.
