Landman has put in a lot of work to make their cast look very different on Taylor Sheridan‘s hit Paramount+ show than they do in real life.
Sheridan got his start as an actor before writing scripts for movies including Sicario, Hell or High Water and Wind River. His focus later shifted to the small screen, which paved the way for Yellowstone‘s success. The hit series, which aired from 2018 to 2024 expanded the universe with spinoffs such as 1883 and 1923, as well as the upcoming series The Dutton Ranch, The Madison and Y: Marshals.
Sheridan has also worked on original shows Mayor of Kingstown, Lioness, Tulsa King and Landman. Inspired by the “Boomtown” podcast series, Landman is focused on the West Texas oil industry with a specific focus on crisis executive Tommy Norris and his family.
Landman introduced Billy Bob Thornton as the corporate fixer working for an oil titan (Jon Hamm) while building up to its promise of plot twists. The season finale killed off Hamm’s Monty while Tommy was named the president of M-Tex before getting kidnapped — and severely beaten — by a drug cartel leader. Tommy is eventually released with the promise that he will work with the cartel.
Season 2 raised the stakes by shaking up the narrative with Demi Moore‘s Cami added into the mix more. Elsewhere in the show, Ali Larter’s Angela, Jacob Lofland‘s Cooper, Michelle Randolph‘s Ainsley and more are at the center of their own drama. Paramount+ renewed the show for season 3 before the second installment came to an end.
