Production Starts for Season 2 of ‘Landman’ with Demi Moore Returning in Enhanced Role

Filming Begins for Season 2 of Paramount+’s *Landman*

Paramount+ has officially kicked off the filming for the highly anticipated second season of *Landman*, a gripping drama created by Taylor Sheridan. Following a stunning debut last fall, the series quickly captured audience interest and critical acclaim.

Returning Cast and Expanded Roles

Billy Bob Thornton will reprise his role as an operations executive working for a Texas oil company, while Demi Moore is also set to return. Moore, who garnered an Oscar nomination for her performance in *The Substance*, played Cami, a character tied to Jon Hamm’s oil magnate in the first season. Despite some criticisms about her limited screen time, she is now second billed for the upcoming episodes.

Co-creator Christian Wallace has hinted at significant developments for Moore’s character in Season 2, stating, “There is a lot more story left to tell with Cami. Taylor has big plans; that’s all I’m going to say.” This suggests an intriguing evolution of her role that fans can look forward to.

A Star-Studded Ensemble

The second season will see the return of a diverse ensemble cast, including Oscar nominee Andy Garcia, Ali Larter, Jacob Lofland, Michelle Randolph, Paulina Chávez, Kayla Wallace, Mark Collie, James Jordan, and Colm Feore. Their collective presence promises to elevate the storyline further.

No Premiere Date Yet, But Optimistic Timing

While a premiere date has not yet been announced, the timing of filming suggests that *Landman* could potentially return before the season wraps up. Fans are eagerly awaiting news on when they can see their favorite characters back on screen.

Record-Breaking Success of *Landman*

*Landman* has achieved remarkable milestones, ranking among the Top 10 subscription video-on-demand (SVOD) original series in the fourth quarter of last year. It shared this impressive status with two other Taylor Sheridan creations, *Tulsa King* and *Lioness*. Moreover, it registered as the most-watched global premiere and finale in Paramount+ history, which culminated in a Golden Globe nomination for Thornton’s outstanding performance.

A Captivating Narrative

Set against the backdrop of West Texas’s booming oil scene, *Landman* explores the contemporary quest for wealth amidst the turmoil of ecological and economic shifts. The series intricately weaves together the lives of roughneck workers and ambitious billionaires sifting through a colossal oil boom that impacts climate, economy, and global politics.
