Billy Bob Thornton makes his highly anticipated return as Tommy Norris, the acclaimed West Texas oil fixer, in the second season of Landman, debuting on Paramount+ on November 16. The series, which has earned its place as the top original show on Paramount+, was co-created by the renowned Yellowstone visionary Taylor Sheridan and Christian Wallace. This new season finds Norris at the height of his power, yet the very success that elevates him also exposes his vulnerability.

He is the guy who remembers the smell of the dusty Texas earth since he was a kid, and now, he is the one fighting tooth and nail to claim it for his company. Every deal he closes is a personal victory, a testament to years of grueling work and a keen intuition honed by experience. Yet, with every success, he feels a growing sense of unease.
