Landman Season 2 explodes onto Paramount+ on November 17, 2025, cranking Taylor Sheridan’s oil-soaked saga to 11 with Billy Bob Thornton’s unhinged Tommy Norris locking horns with cartel overlord Andy Garcia in a brutal showdown that’ll make Yellowstone look like a family picnic. Demi Moore’s scheming Cami pulls strings like a puppet master on steroids, while Sam Elliott’s grizzled debut as a roughneck legend unleashes betrayals, power grabs, and family feuds that’ll have you gasping for air. Fans on X (#LandmanS2) are already losing it, calling it “Sheridan’s wildest yet—better than Dutton drama!”
Tommy Norris, the hard-drinking landman with a moral compass spinning like a derrick, dives deeper into the Permian Basin’s black gold underbelly, clashing with Garcia’s ruthless cartel boss Diego Navarro, a silk-suited monster trafficking fentanyl and oil across the border. Thornton’s Norris is a powder keg of charm and chaos, his West Texas drawl dripping venom in boardrooms and back alleys, while Garcia’s Navarro brings Scarface menace with a modern twist—think cartel cash funding political puppets. Moore’s Cami, Tommy’s ex and energy titan, schemes like a chess grandmaster, her red-lip smirks hiding daggers aimed at rivals and lovers alike.
Elliott’s Carter Knox, a grizzled oil baron with a past darker than crude, debuts as Tommy’s mentor-turned-menace, sparking epic betrayals that rip families apart—from Tommy’s daughter Ainsley’s forbidden romance to Cami’s son Cooper’s cartel flirtation. Ali Larter’s Angela, Tommy’s fiery partner, and Michelle Randolph as his daughter add heart to the hell, with Sheridan’s script delivering rig ambushes, fentanyl-fueled chases, and power plays that echo Sicario’s grit. The Season 1 finale cliffhanger—Tommy’s gunshot wound and Navarro’s threat—sets the stage for a bloodbath, with one X user raving, “S2’s gonna be Yellowstone on meth!”
Critics anticipate “Sheridan’s most ambitious,” with 90% early buzz for its “visceral” action and “Shakespearean family rot.” While some note repetitive tropes, most hail Thornton’s “unhinged brilliance” and Garcia’s “chilling calm.” Streaming to Paramount+’s Top 5, Landman Season 2 is Sheridan’s wildest ride yet. Will Tommy drill for victory or drown in the derrick? Saddle up for a binge that’ll leave you gasping.
