Landman Season 2 adds a new star from creator Taylor Sheridan's Yellowstone universe
Paramount Plus' beloved new series Landman is getting a new star for its second season, one fans familiar with Taylor Sheridan's Yellowstone universe will be familiar with.
The first season of Landman debuted in mid-November 2024 with the 10-episode season wrapping up in early January, starring Billy Bob Thornton as Tommy Norris.
The streaming service renewed the series for a second season back in March, with production starting up earlier this month.
Thornton returns alongside Demi Moore, Andy Garcia, Ali Larter, Jacob Lofland, Michelle Randolph, Paulina Chávez, Kayla Wallace, Mark Collie, James Jordan and Colm Feore in Season 2.
Sheridan also created Landman alongside Christian Wallace, based on Wallace's Boomtown podcast.
Who will be joining Thornton and the rest of the cast in the West Texas oil drama? It's none other than Sam Elliott, who starred in Sheridan's Yellowstone prequel 1883.
There are no details as to what character Elliott may be portraying on the show, which follows the lives of both blue collar and white collar men and women in the West Texas gas and oil industry.
It's possible that Elliott could be playing Thornton's on-screen father, though they're just 11 years apart, but we'll have to wait and see.
This will be Elliott's second stint in a Taylor Sheridan series, following his portrayal of Shea Brennan in the first Yellowstone prequel 1883.
Brennan was a former Union Army captain who works for the Pinkerton Agency, leading a wagon train expedition westward.
His emotional portrayal of Brennan - fueled by the loss of the character's wife and daughter to smallpox - earned Elliott a Screen Actors Guild Award in 2023.
With production currently under way in Texas, it's possible the second season could eye a November debut like the first season, though no date has been revealed yet.
The show is set in the West Texas oil fields, following the fictional oil company M-TEX and landman Tommy Norris, who juggles both his wild job and his family.
When Tommy's not trying to control his ex Angela (Ali Larter) and daughter Ainsley (Michelle Randolph), he's trying to protect M-TEX's stake in a volatile landscape including drug cartels and rival oil companies.

Landman ranked as a top 10 streaming video on demand (SVOD) original series in the fourth quarter of 2024.
'The series had 35 million global streaming viewers for the premiere episode and set new several records for Paramount Plus.
It was the streaming service's most watched global premiere and finale in the streamer's history, and it was its top original show, engagement driver and household hit.
Elliott will next lend his voice to The Dragon in the upcoming film Grendel alongside Bryan Cranston, Dave Bautista and Jeff Bridges.

Teen Mom star Kailyn Lowry's son, 15, comes out and reveals why he changed his name to Elliott
Teen Mom alum Kailyn Lowry is celebrating a major milestone with her eldest son, who came out as gay and revealed he now goes by a new name during the latest episode of her Barely Famous podcast. The 33-year-old reality star invited her 15-year-old, whom she shares with ex Jo Rivera, to co-host Friday's episode and give an update on his life. 'It's very important to me because I feel like growing up on TV, it's hard to show who you really are when a camera is in front of you all the time,' the teen said. 'It's almost like you have a TV face. It's harder to be yourself and to be more comfortable.' He went on to explain that he changed his name after no longer feeling connected to his birth name. 'I started going by Elliott because at some point, I wasn't happy with my first name,' he said. 'It just doesn't feel like me.' Teen Mom alum Kailyn Lowry is celebrating a major milestone with her eldest son, who came out as gay and revealed he now goes by a new name during the latest episode of her Barely Famous podcast The 33-year-old reality star invited her 15-year-old, whom she shares with ex Jo Rivera, to co-host Friday's episode and give an update on his life Lowry noted that she believes the switch was partly an effort to separate from the version of himself viewers saw on MTV, and Elliott agreed that was true. He then confirmed he identifies as gay. Overcome with emotion, Lowry broke down in tears as she praised her son's courage, saying she was 'so proud' of him for embracing his identity and calling it a 'brave thing to do.' Her son added, "I'm sick of people coming up with their own stories and putting things in their own words and things coming out on other people's terms about me, because my life isn't entertainment for other people. 'My life is my life and I can do what I want with it. And for people to take things from my life, like personal stuff, is not okay. 'If I want to share it, I should share that on my own terms.' Kailyn also shares son Lincoln, 11, with ex Javi Marroquin; sons Lux, 7, and Creed, 4, with ex Chris Lopez; and son Rio, 2, with fiancé Elijah Scott. In late 2023, she also welcomed twins Verse and Valley with Scott. Overcome with emotion, Lowry broke down in tears as she praised her son's courage, saying she was 'so proud' of him for embracing his identity and calling it a 'brave thing to do' The podcast reveal comes after Kailyn showed off her slimmed down frame with bikini snaps after undergoing a breast reduction. Back in December Lowry revealed she had gotten a breast reduction just before Christmas Eve. She used her Instagram Story to share various post-op selfies as she tracked her recovery and asked fans if they wanted further content detailing her operation. Lowry's surgery came months after she revealed she was told she needed to lose weight in order to be eligible for a breast augmentation. On her Almost Famous podcast in May she said: 'I want to get a boob job, right? I call around. I'm making these consultations to get a boob job. You know what they told me? They told me I need to lose 40 pounds.' She reiterated, 'So 40 or 50 pounds, more like 50 but maybe get away with 40 pounds, before they can even operate on me.' Reflecting on the moment, the former MTV star admitted she was overcome with emotion, 'sobbing' on the phone with a doctor's office as she considered a 'breast reduction, implants [or] lift.' 'I don't even know if I can get my double chin done,' she noted. After welcoming her twins in late 2023, Kailyn admitted she wanted to try the popular weight loss drug Ozempic to drop weight quick to return to her pre-baby body. 'How hard it is to lose weight as an adult, f**k my life. I'm scared,' she admitted on her Baby Mamas No Drama podcast in January 2024. 'I was in the gym five days a week. If you're going to get plastic surgery you have to maintain it.'

This Prada-inspired tote costs just £20 - plus the best other beach bags on the high street
If you're a celebrity, style influencer or fashion editor, there's only one summer bag to be seen with: Prada's crochet tote, which has achieved cult status over the past few years. It costs an astonishing £1,500, despite it's extremely simple design (basically just a rectangular-shaped raffia-effect bag with a logo on). However luckily, there are plenty of totes with similar vibes on the high street. Straw Tote Bag £19.99 Shop Take H&M's tote for example, which has a similar shape to Prada's bag, as well as the same straw colour combined with black printed logo (admittedly saying 'Amour Paris' not 'Prada', but you do save £1,480 in foregoing the branding). It's a good size for your towel, book and sunglasses case, and would go with pretty much any outfit, which is handy when you don't want to lug a whole load of options on holiday with you. What's more, it's only £19.99 – which leaves you some spare cash for those poolside Aperol spritzes. Of course, the high street is awash with excellent baskets and beach bags at the moment. Key trends include huge, oversized bags (perfect if you have a family in tow), deckchair-like retro stripes and endless raffia and crochet options. Okay, so we might not be able to swing a Prada bag from our shoulders like Hailey Bieber and Dua Lipa, but we can still look very chic on holiday with these affordable offerings… Red And White Striped Tote Bag £49 Shop Khaki Green Straw Shoulder Bag £34 Shop The Island Hopper Tote Bag South Beach £24 Shop Raffia Tote Bag £32 Shop Tan Here Comes The Sun Woven Straw Beach Bag £22 Shop George at Asda Neutral Zoelle Straw Tote Bag Whistles £109 Shop Off White Striped Slouchy Canvas Tote Shopper Bag £15.99 Shop New Look Raffia Oversized Tote Bag £90 Shop Hush A&P Hero Tote £44 Shop Ace & Prince
