Landman season 2: Release date and latest news

*Warning – contains spoilers all episodes of Landman season 1*

Taylor Sheridan's TV empire continues to expand, and as fans wait for the next season of his show Lioness, as well as the many Yellowstone spin-offs in the works, they can first look forward to the return of his hit drama Landman.

The series, which stars Billy Bob Thornton and Demi Moore, is almost back for season 2, a year after the first season debuted. This time around, Jon Hamm's character Monty is out of the picture after he met his end in the season 1 finale, meaning Moore's character Cami is stepping up.

Thornton has teased how her new role at the top of M-Tex oil will affect his character, Tommy, telling Deadline: "Since she doesn’t really know the oil business that well, I’m there with her to show her how these people operate.

"You can know something intellectually but what are the street smarts behind it? I know how to deal with these people she’s going to have to deal with. I just tell her, 'Look, some of these deals you can take but when it gets really weird and difficult, let me know because I know these guys.'"

Thornton said this piles on the pressure for Tommy, explaining: "He goes from having a job that’s really difficult and a job that’s very dangerous to having two. Now I’m kind of executive and a landman and a family man in the midst of this tornado. It makes for some pretty interesting stuff I have to say."

Meanwhile, Ainsley star Michelle Randolph has recently teased that this second season might not be the end for the drama, telling The Hollywood Reporter that there is plenty of scope for future. episodes.

"There’s so many stories to tell," she said. "There’s so many really distinct characters, I feel like we could go on and on and on because what I always have to remind myself - the first season was 10 days in the show so I’m like, we could film the show for so long because it’s not like it’s one season, taking place over a year or anything.

"There’s so much room for growth in every single character; they’re all deeply flawed in their own ways, which is what makes them really enticing to watch because it’s very human."

But exactly when will fans be able to start watching Landman season 2? Read on to find out.

Will there be a Landman season 2?

There will! It was first reported by Variety in March 2025 that the show had been renewed for a second season on Paramount Plus.

At the time of renewal, Chris McCarthy, president and CEO of Showtime/MTV Entertainment Studios and Paramount Media Networks, said in a statement: "Landman was one of the biggest shows of the year because of Taylor Sheridan’s unique ability to tap into the cultural zeitgeist, harnessing the Neo-western themes of rugged individualism, ambition and working-class struggles set against contemporary debates around energy, climate change and economic growth.

"The series has helped drive Paramount+ to new heights as the #2 SVOD in the US for Original Hours Watched in Q4, alongside our other hit series Tulsa King, The Agency, Lioness and Dexter: Original Sin."

The renewal shouldn't be a surprise. Not only was the show a ratings success, but the creative team behind the programme have long stated that they were hoping for more episodes.

Speaking with The Direct, co-creator Christian Wallace previously said: "As long as there are stories to tell, I would love to keep telling them. And I think we really just skinned the surface on our first season, and that's saying something because they cover a lot of ground. So yeah, I hope we keep telling these stories for a while."

Meanwhile, some cast members expressed their expectation that the show would be returning, with Demi Moore telling Deadline back in May 2024: "I’ve already completed the first season and I’m excited for us to start the second, which will be at the beginning of next year."

Jacob Lofland also told ScreenRant that while he "can't say yay or nay, and I have no idea", he does "hope, more than anything, that we go back to working as quick as we can on it, because it's a blast, and I love making it, and I think this story needs to be told, and I think people are going to love it".

Of his character's progression, Lofland said he would "hope to see Cooper become the young man that he's aspiring to be, and kind of step out of boyhood".

Meanwhile, Paulina Chávez told ScreenRant that she hadn't heard anything about the show's future, but that she wants "to stay optimistic".

"Billy Bob Thornton got nominated for a Golden Globe for the show," Chávez added, "so, I mean, I don't know, fingers crossed".
