"Landman" Drills for More Success: Season 3 Officially Confirmed at Paramount+

The record-breaking Taylor Sheridan oil drama

Landman

has officially been renewed for a third season on Paramount+. The announcement comes just a few episodes into the show's highly successful second season run, driven by massive viewership numbers that made the premiere the most-watched original series debut in the streamer's history. 

A Ratings Juggernaut

The Season 2 premiere, which aired on November 16, 2025, delivered over 9.2 million streaming views in its first two days alone—a staggering 262% increase over the Season 1 launch. This performance solidified the show's place as a top-tier original content for the platform. 

What to Expect from Season 3

Landman, co-created by Taylor Sheridan and Christian Wallace, is a modern-day tale of fortune-seeking in the brutal world of West Texas oil rigs. The series stars Oscar winner Billy Bob Thornton as Tommy Norris, an oil company fixer. The cast for Season 2 also features powerhouse additions like Demi Moore, Andy Garcia, and Sam Elliott. 

While plot details for Season 3 remain under wraps, the early renewal suggests confidence in the direction the story is taking. Star Billy Bob Thornton is reportedly signed on for "four or five years," promising a long run for the series. 

Production for the third season is anticipated to begin in early 2026, with fans hoping for a potential premiere date in November 2026, following the pattern of the first two seasons.

More Taylor Sheridan on the Horizon

Despite recent news of creator Taylor Sheridan signing a deal with NBCUniversal, a separate production arrangement allows Landman to continue its run on Paramount+.
