Landman Season 2

TL;DR:

Season 2 ended on January 18, 2026 with a turning-point finale.
Tommy faces life after M-Tex, setting up a new venture.
Paramount+ renewed the show for Season 3 in December 2025.
Cast teases point to deeper family and business fallout next.

Landman is Taylor Sheridan’s oil-patch drama about power, family, and the high stakes of West Texas deals. Billy Bob Thornton plays Tommy Norris, a fixer who chases leases and influence while trying to keep his family together.

Season 2 streamed weekly on Paramount+, premiering on November 16, 2025 and wrapping on January 18, 2026. The season again ran for ten episodes, dropping on Sundays in the United States at 3 a.m. ET, with local release times by region. Esquire published the full release pattern ahead of the season and confirmed the January 18 finale window.

What happened in Season 2

The season tightened the focus on the Norris family and M-Tex, the company long tied to Tommy’s rise. New players tried to outflank M-Tex in the field and in court. Long-running grudges finally came to a head.

The finale capped that pressure. Tommy lost his position at M-Tex, then chose a different path. Coverage from The Economic Times highlights how the episode closed out business and family conflicts while pointing to a new oil venture and fresh alliances.

Ali Larter, who plays Angela Norris, called the ending a “quiet yet powerful” moment that lets viewers sit with what the couple has endured. She described a scene with Thornton as a “still” beat that shows the core of Angela and Tommy after a brutal day. Her comments came in an interview published alongside the finale.

Billy Bob Thornton also framed the finale as a pivot rather than a wrap. He said Tommy’s next chapter opens the door to more risk, hinting that the hopeful tone may be short-lived in the following season. He also confirmed he is committed for multiple seasons.

Key beats from the finale

Tommy is forced out of M-Tex, then commits to a new company path.
Family dynamics shift as older generations move closer and influence decisions at home.
Loose threads from legal and business fights get tied up enough to set a clean runway for Season 3.

Cast and characters to watch

Season 2 expanded the canvas with veterans and fresh faces around the core family. Pre-season guides listed Billy Bob Thornton, Ali Larter, Demi Moore, Michelle Randolph, Jacob Lofland, and others among the returning and featured performers, with Sam Elliott joining the ensemble.

Expect the same orbit in Season 3, given how the finale positions Tommy’s inner circle and rivals. Thornton’s own remarks suggest he will remain central as the story moves past the M-Tex chapter.

Release timeline and how to watch

Season 2 premiere: November 16, 2025.
Season 2 finale: January 18, 2026.

Ratings snapshot and trailers

Season 2 trailers and featurettes teased a harder edge and bigger stakes. You can find the season hub, teasers, and episode promo clips on Rotten Tomatoes’ Season 2 page.

Is Season 3 happening?

Yes. Paramount+ renewed Landman for Season 3 in December 2025. Coverage also notes there is no confirmed global release date yet. Industry chatter points to filming beginning in 2026, but that schedule depends on Taylor Sheridan’s other shows.

What to expect next

A startup phase for Tommy’s new venture, with financing and field risks.
More family storylines at home, after the finale’s quiet coda between Tommy and Angela.
A wider map of rivals and partners as the show shifts beyond M-Tex.

Why it matters

Landman is a top draw for Paramount+ and a key part of Sheridan’s TV slate. The Season 2 ending removes the safety net and puts the drama in a leaner, riskier place. For viewers, that means higher tension and a cleaner entry point. You can finish Season 2 over a weekend, get the turning point, then be ready when Season 3 lands.
