Landman Season 2 Trailer:The oil fields are roaring once again, and so are fans’ hearts. Taylor Sheridan’s gripping series “Landman,” set in the high-stakes world of Texas oil, has officially released the first trailer for Season 2, and it promises to be bolder, darker, and more emotional than ever. With new faces joining the cast, shifting alliances, and a story that hits close to home, the Landman saga is far from over.
The trailer, which premiered online earlier this week, gives fans a heartbreaking glimpse into the chaos and ambition of America’s energy sector. From oil rigs to corporate boardrooms, “Landman” Season 2 looks to be a fiery continuation of Sheridan’s quest for power, greed, and survival.
Season 2 Begins After a Turbulent End
The first season of “Landman” left viewers unsettled. Billy Bob Thornton’s character, Tommy Norris, was last seen grappling with betrayal, personal loss, and the uncertain future of his oil empire. Season 2 picks up just weeks after that explosive ending, with Norris facing mounting legal troubles, political pressure, and stiff competition from young, hungry players eager to seize his throne.
The trailer opens with Sheridan’s familiar style—panoramic views of the dusty Texas skyline, the roar of diesel engines, and Tommy’s voice, “Oil made me rich. But it’s taking away everything else.” It’s a sobering reflection that sets the tone for the battles ahead.
New cast Members Make The Drama even More Exciting.
Season 2 features an impressive list of new cast members, adding new tension and excitement to this oil-fueled drama.
- Matthew McConaughey joins the cast in a surprising transformation as Jack Harlan, a charismatic but ruthless oil executive with political ambitions. His Southern charm hides a sharp business acumen and a willingness to destroy anyone who stands in his way.
- Zoe Saldana plays Maria Vega, an environmental lawyer turned oil consultant torn between profit and conscience. Her character challenges Tommy like no one else has before.
- Cole Hauser, best known for his fan-favorite role as Rip Wheeler in Yellowstone, appears in a recurring role as Rhett Dalton, a former Marine who now handles private security for a major oil conglomerate.
Fans of the first season can rest assured knowing that Billy Bob Thornton, Ali Larter, and Jacob Lofland are all returning to reprise their roles, ensuring continuity amid the changing landscape of the oil industry.
Plot: Power, Liberation, and the Price of Greed
The trailer offers a glimpse into a complex story that deeply explores the ethical and environmental consequences of big oil companies. This time, Landman seeks to extend the industry’s influence beyond Texas to Washington and Wall Street.
In one of the trailer’s most powerful scenes, McConaughey’s Jack Harlan says, “Oil doesn’t just fuel trucks—it fuels the entire nation. And I’m just the matchstick.” The tension between corporate greed and environmental responsibility forms the backbone of the new season.
Meanwhile, Tommy Norris struggles to keep his empire from crumbling while protecting his fragmented family. His relationship with his estranged daughter (played by Ali Larter) becomes a major emotional focus of the season. As government agencies close in on him, Tommy faces a difficult question: how far will he go to protect what’s his?
Sheridan’s Specialty: Authentic and Powerful
Like all Taylor Sheridan projects, Landman is rooted in authenticity. Every scene in the Season 2 trailer captures the harsh beauty of the Texas oil fields—long shadows over desert fields, roaring machinery, and people whose livelihoods depend on the Earth’s deepest secrets.
The dialogue is sharp and emotionally intense. Thornton’s Norris says, “If you dig deep enough, you’ll either find oil or the truth. And both can destroy you.” This is Sheridan’s classic style—philosophical yet down-to-earth, brutal yet deeply human.
