Billy Bob Thornton stars in the Taylor Sheridan-produced drama premiering November 17 on Paramount+.
“Men die. Oil companies don’t”
That sage observation is shared by Billy Bob Thornton in the latest trailer for Landman, the new Taylor Sheridan-produced drama premiering November 17 on Paramount+. Such blunt-spokenness is pretty much what you would expect to hear from Thornton’s character in the series: Tommy Norris, a seen-it-all, done-almost-everything crisis manager for a Texas based oil company.
In the trailer, which Paramount+ released Monday, we’re also introduced to co-stars as Jon Hamm (Mad Men, Fargo) as Monty Miller, a Texas oil industry titan with a long personal and professional relationship with Tommy; Demi Moore (G.I. Jane, A Few Good Men) as Cami Miller, Monty’s wife and Tommy’s friend; Ari Larter (Heroes, The Rookie) as Angela, Tommy’s mercurial ex-wife; and Jacob Lofland (12 Mighty Orphans, Joker: Folie à Deux) as Copper Norris, Tommy’s strong-willed son.
Other members of the cast include Michelle Randolph (1923), Mustafa Speaks (Joe Pickett), Kayla Wallace (When Calls the Heart), James Jordan (Yellowstone), Mark Collie (Nashville), Andy Garcia (The Godfather Part III, Ocean’s Eleven) and Michael Peña (End of Watch, Ant-Man).
Landman was co-created by Taylor Sheridan and Christian Wallace, and based on Boomtown, the well-received 11-part Texas Monthly podcast that was written and hosted by Wallace. According to Paramount, the series “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 that are fueling a boom so big it’s reshaping our climate, our economy and our geopolitics.”
Here is the latest trailer for Landman.
