‘Landman’s Billy Bob Thornton Teases Explosive Season 2 of Taylor Sheridan’s Latest Hit
“We thought it was going to be successful, but we didn’t know it was going to blow up like this,” Thornton shared. “So, we’re pretty happy.”
Sheridan originally wrote the part of Tommy with Thornton in mind — something that immediately drew the Oscar winner in. “It just intrigued me,” he said. “You don’t get a look behind the curtain of the oil business very often. I was telling a journalist one day that it’s kind of like Giant with cursing.”
What Is Season 2 of ‘Landman’ About?
With Landman Season 2 currently filming, Thornton teased a deepening of character dynamics across the board, following the development of several characters in Season 1.
“We’ve been shooting for about a month and a half, and I am loving it. The relationships are getting even more developed, and the cast is gelling even more. It just seems more and more real every day, so I’m very, very happy with it. It deals with the relationships a lot this year, so I’m very happy about that.”
Landman streams exclusively on Paramount+. Production on Season 2 is currently underway, and it will arrive on the streaming platform in November. Stay tuned to Collider for more updates on Landman and the world of Taylor Sheridan.
