Taylor Sheridan's new show Landman starring Billy Bob Thornton and Jon Hamm has confirmed a release date and shared a first trailer.
Co-created by the Yellowstone boss, Landman is set in present-day West Texas, digging deeper into the world of oil rigs and analysing the impact this fortune-seeking game has on the environment and economy.
Based on the podcast Boomtown by Christian Wallace, the series is set to premiere its first two episodes on Paramount+ in the UK, US and other markets on November 18. The remaining eight episodes will debut weekly on the streamer.
