Is Billy Bob Thornton Leaving Landman? Actor Responds to Season 2 Fan Theory
"The Paramount+ series stars Thornton as Tommy Norris, with Thornton's exact voice and wit embedded into the show's drama of a landman making deals for drilling rights. But after Tommy is fired near the end of season 2 and forced to start his own oil company, many fans seemed to take the late-season twist to mean that Thornton was leaving the show as well. He's not, of coursebut don't just take it from me. You can hear the confirmation from Thornton himself. I'm signed up for like five years or something, the actor told Esquire ahead of the finale."
"In the season 2 finale, Tommy goes into business with his son and creates a new oil company named CTT: Oil Exploration and Cattle. He was fired from his previous company, M-Tex, after a tense and sudden disagreement with owner Cami Miller (Demi Moore). She took over the company after her late husband Monty (Jon Hamm) died from a heart attack in the season 1 finale. So, when we return for season 3, the former friends will likely now see each other as rivals."
Billy Bob Thornton stars as Tommy Norris and remains under contract to continue on Landman for roughly five years. Tommy is fired from M-Tex near the end of season 2 after a sudden disagreement with owner Cami Miller and then forms a new family oil company, CTT: Oil Exploration and Cattle, with his son. The firing sets up a likely rivalry between Tommy and Cami when the series returns for season 3. Much of the speculation about Thornton leaving originated from AI-generated posts and fabricated videos. Filming for season 3 is expected to begin in the spring, with the full cast returning.
