Yellowstone creator Taylor Sheridan's latest project, Landman, is already creating buzz among fans and industry insiders. Known for his acclaimed work on projects like Hell or High Water and the hit TV series Yellowstone, Sheridan's collaboration with Christian Wallace is set to captivate audiences once again.
Recently, Paramount+ made an exciting announcement, confirming that production for Landman has commenced in Fort Worth, Texas. In addition to this update, the streaming platform shared a photo of a filming slate, signifying the beginning of this highly anticipated series. What's more, Taylor Sheridan himself will be directing the first episode of Landman, adding an extra layer of excitement for fans.
Based on the podcast Boomtown, Landman aims to delve into the modern-day multi-billion dollar oil industry in Texas. Although concrete plot details are currently scarce, the show's official description promises a compelling narrative that explores the impact of 'roughnecks and wildcat billionaires' on our climate, economy, and geopolitics.
One of the biggest highlights of Landman so far is the casting of the legendary Academy Award-winning actor, Billy Bob Thornton. Thornton is no stranger to working with Sheridan, having previously collaborated on the Yellowstone prequel 1883. In Landman, Thornton will take on the role of Tommy Norris, a crisis manager for an oil company. Joining him in the series are talented actors Ali Larter, Michelle Randolph, and Jacob Lofland, ensuring a stellar ensemble.
While an official release date for Landman has not been announced, it's safe to assume that the show won't premiere until the end of this year or possibly early 2025. Given Sheridan's track record of delivering sprawling and compelling narratives, combined with the impressive cast assembled for Landman, it's safe to say that the wait will be well worth it.
As fans eagerly anticipate more details and updates about Landman, excitement continues to build for this latest venture by Taylor Sheridan. With Fort Worth, Texas as its backdrop and the intriguing world of the oil industry as its premise, Landman promises to be another gripping and captivating series that will leave viewers eagerly awaiting each new episode.
