Landman was renewed for a third season just weeks after its Season 2 premiere — a vote of confidence from Paramount+ that surprised nobody who had been watching the numbers, given that the show had already established itself as one of the streamer’s biggest and most talked about original dramas. The Yellowstone creator’s oil-soaked Texas epic has done something that Taylor Sheridan’s projects have a habit of doing — arrived quietly, built a devoted following with extraordinary speed, and then exploded into the mainstream conversation with a force that left everyone who slept on it in the early episodes scrambling to catch up.

Billy Bob Thornton has confirmed he will be back as Tommy Norris for Season 3, with production set to begin in May 2026 — his response when asked directly about his return was characteristically simple and characteristically certain: “I’ll be there.” Co-creator Christian Wallace confirmed that filming will begin in May, noting the production will be shooting later in the year than the previous two seasons, which means braving the full Texas summer heat — but that the team is committed to delivering Season 3 to fans as soon as possible. Demi Moore’s character appears positioned for expanded prominence, Sam Elliott’s addition suggests rich generational conflict ahead, and Tommy Norris — fired from M-Tex Oil in the Season 2 finale — is heading into territory that nobody has yet mapped out. For the fans who have been waiting since January, the wait is almost over — and everything pointing toward Season 3 suggests it is going to be worth every single day of it.
