It's been a whirlwind year for Taylor Sheridan devotees, with the prolific creator churning out new episodes across multiple series nearly every week. From the expanding Yellowstone universe to fresh projects like Dutton Ranch and Marshals, there's been no shortage of content. However, not all spin-offs have hit the mark—while Dutton Ranch earned praise similar to the original, Marshals drew criticism for its CBS-style storytelling, which some felt diluted the gritty charm that made Yellowstone a phenomenon.
Sheridan is also returning to his roots with upcoming screenplays for F.A.S.T. and Call of Duty, though he's opted not to direct either. He'll collaborate with directors Peter Berg (Call of Duty) and Ben Richardson (F.A.S.T.), both familiar faces from his past work.
But the news that's got fans buzzing is about Landman, Sheridan's gripping oil drama starring Billy Bob Thornton and Ali Larter. The show debuted its first season in late 2024 and returned with a second season almost exactly a year later. Now, fans hoping for a third season in 2026 will be disappointed: it's been confirmed that Landman Season 3 won't hit Paramount+ until 2027. Production, originally slated to start earlier this year, was pushed back to September, making a 2026 release impossible without compromising quality.
What's Next for Tommy Norris?
The Season 2 finale left Tommy Norris (Thornton) in a bold new position: he quit M-Tex and decided to launch his own oil company with family and friends. That move won't go unchallenged. Cami Miller (Demi Moore) is expected to remain a formidable presence, stepping into her late husband's shoes and giving Tommy fierce competition. Meanwhile, Andy Garcia's Gallino is back with an even bigger grudge against Tommy, setting the stage for intense confrontations.
Jon Hamm's departure in Season 1 left a void, but Season 3 will fill it with Michael Kelly, a Sheridan regular known for his role as Byron Westfield in Lioness. Kelly will play William Crockett, described as the head of the world's largest oil management firm—a titan of industry whose every move screams efficiency and wealth. Details about his storyline remain under wraps, but his arrival promises to shake things up.
While waiting for Landman's return, fans can catch up on the first two seasons on Paramount+.
