Landman was renewed for Season 3 in December 2025 amid its sophomore run, which concluded this January. Since then, fans have eagerly awaited news of when the hit oil-industry drama would return. Now, however, it appears the series has hit a slight setback. Inspired by Christian Wallace‘s Texas-set podcast Boomtown, Landman was co-created by Taylor Sheridan and Wallace. The series premiered in 2024 and has since become one of Paramount+’s biggest successes, earning strong viewership alongside generally positive reviews.
The last time viewers saw Landman, Tommy Norris (Billy Bob Thornton) had been fired from M-Tex before launching his own independent company, CTT Oil Exploration and Cattle, with financial backing from Gallino (Andy Garcia). He also recruited several key figures from M-Tex, including his father, T.L. Norris (Sam Elliott), and other trusted colleagues. Tommy named Cooper (Jacob Lofland) president, Nate (Colm Feore) Treasurer, and Rebecca (Kayla Wallace) COO and Chief Counsel. With Tommy embarking on a new chapter, Season 3 is expected to bring the show’s biggest shake-up yet. However, fans may have to wait a little longer than anticipated, as production is no longer starting as originally planned.
Speaking to Us Weekly at the premiere of Lioness Season 3, which recently debuted on Paramount+, James Jordan shared an update on Landman Season 3’s production schedule. Jordan, a frequent Taylor Sheridan collaborator who has also appeared in Yellowstone and Lioness, revealed that filming will now begin in September. The actor, who plays petroleum engineer Dale Bradley in Landman, also confirmed that director Stephen Kay is expected to return to helm additional episodes.

“I believe we’re bringing back the same director, Stephen Kay, who I adore. So it’s going to be a great ride. We start that sometime in September, and we’ll shoot that through the first quarter of next year.”

Where does your power come from? In Sheridan’s world, everyone has leverage. The question is what kind.

Who do you put first, no matter what? Loyalty in Sheridan’s universe is always absolute — and always costly.

03
Someone crosses a line. How do you respond? Every Sheridan protagonist has a line. What matters is what happens after it’s crossed.

04
Where do you feel most in your element? Sheridan’s worlds are as much about place as they are about people.

05
How do you feel about operating in the grey? Nobody in a Sheridan show has clean hands. The question is how they carry the dirt.

What are you actually fighting to hold onto? Every Sheridan character is fighting a war. The real question is what they’re defending.

Sheridan Has Spoken You Belong In…
The show that claimed the most of your answers is the world you were built for. If two tied, both are shown — you’re complicated enough to straddle two Sheridan universes.

You are a Dutton — or you might as well be. You understand that some things are worth protecting at any cost, and that the modern world’s indifference to history, to land, to legacy, is not something you’re willing to accept quietly. You lead from the front, you carry your family’s weight without complaint, and when someone threatens what’s yours, you don’t escalate — you finish it. You’re not cruel. But you are absolute. In Yellowstone’s world, that combination of ferocity and loyalty doesn’t make you a villain. It makes you the only thing standing between everything that matters and everyone who wants to take it.
You thrive in the chaos of high-stakes negotiation, where the money is enormous, the margins are thin, and the wrong word in the wrong room can cost everyone everything. You’re a fixer — the person called when a situation is already on fire and needs someone with the nerve to walk into it. West Texas oil country rewards exactly what you are: sharp, adaptable, unsentimental, and absolutely clear-eyed about what people want and what they’ll do to get it. You’re not naive enough to think this world is fair. You’re smart enough to be the one deciding who it’s fair to.

You are a Dwight Manfredi — someone who has served their time, paid their dues, and arrived somewhere unexpected with nothing but their reputation and their wits. You adapt without losing yourself. You build loyalty through respect rather than fear, though you’re not above reminding people that the two aren’t mutually exclusive. Tulsa King is for people who are still standing when everyone assumed they’d be finished — who find, in an unfamiliar place, that they’re more capable than the world gave them credit for. You don’t need a throne. You build one, wherever you happen to land.
You carry the weight of a system that is broken by design, and you do it anyway — because someone has to, and because you’re the only one positioned to do it without the whole thing collapsing. Mike McLusky’s world is for people who are comfortable operating where there are no good options, only less catastrophic ones. You speak every language: law enforcement, criminal, political, human. That fluency makes you invaluable and it makes you a target. You’ve made your peace with both. Mayor of Kingstown belongs to people who understand that keeping the peace is not the same as being at peace — and who do the job regardless.
