Michael Kelly Joins ‘Landman’ For Season 3 As Series Regular

When the Paramount+ series Landman returns with its third season, it will feature the show’s newest series regular, Michael Kelly (Lioness, The Penguin). He will portray William Crockett, the leader of the largest oil management firm in the world. He is a titan of industry, and everything about him exudes efficiency and money. Set in the proverbial boomtowns of West Texas, Landman is a modern-day tale of fortune-seeking in the world of oil rigs. Based on the 11-part podcast “Boomtown,” the series is an upstairs/downstairs story of roughnecks and wildcat billionaires fueling a boom so big, it’s reshaping our climate, our economy, and our geopolitics. In Season 2, as oil rises from the earth, so do secrets – and Tommy Norris’s (Billy Bob Thornton) breaking point may be closer than he realizes. Facing mounting pressure from M-Tex Oil, Cami Miller (Demi Moore), and the shadow of his kin, survival in West Texas isn’t noble – it’s brutal. And sooner or later, something’s got to break. Watch on Deadline Details surrounding the plot for Season 3 have yet to be revealed. In addition to lead actor Thornton, the series also stars Demi Moore, Andy Garcia, Ali Larter and Sam Elliott. Additional cast includes Jacob Lofland, Michelle Randolph, Paulina Chávez, Kayla Wallace, Mark Collie, James Jordan and Colm Feore. Landman is executive produced by Taylor Sheridan, David C. Glasser, David Hutkin, Ron Burkle, Bob Yari, Christian Wallace, Billy Bob Thornton, Geyer Kosinski, Michael Friedman, and Stephen Kay. Dan Friedkin and Jason Hoch for Imperative Entertainment, and J.K. Nickell and Megan Creydt for Texas Monthly also executive produce. Kelly is repped by WME, Liebman Entertainment, and Schreck Rose Dapello.
