Landman Season 2 is reportedly set to introduce a new lead, with uncertainty surrounding Jon Hamm’s return. Paramount+ announced the show’s renewal for a second season on March 22, 2025, with filming expected to start in early 2025 in Midland and Fort Worth, Texas. Although official plot details are not yet available, we can expect Season 2 to follow up on the intense events from the Season 1 finale.

In the finale of Season 1, Tommy Norris, portrayed by Billy Bob Thornton, became the CEO of M-Tex Oil after Monty Miller, played by Jon Hamm, passed away. This shift puts Tommy in charge of tackling difficult challenges, including risky drilling initiatives and complex negotiations with drug cartel leader Galino, played by Andy Garcia. Moreover, Tommy’s personal life is fraught with difficulties as he tries to mend his relationship with his ex-wife Angela, portrayed by Ali Larter, while dealing with evolving family dynamics involving his children Ainsley and Cooper, played by Michelle Randolph and Jacob Lofland, respectively.

The upcoming season is likely to explore these storylines more thoroughly, focusing on Tommy’s leadership at M-Tex Oil, how he addresses external threats, and how his choices affect his family relationships. The introduction of Galino suggests there may be possible alliances or conflicts that could have significant repercussions for M-Tex and its investors.

An official release date for Season 2 has not been confirmed, but the filming timeline indicates it may premiere in late 2025 or early 2026. Fans can look forward to a continuation of the series’ intricate storytelling and character development.
