“Landman” Cast Talks About new Taylor Sheridan Oil Drama
Based on the podcast Boomtown hosted by Christian Wallace, Thornton plays a crisis executive in this rich man, poor man drama set deep in the heart of West Texas during a fueling boom. Ali Larter plays Angela Norris, Tommy Norris’ (Billy Bob Thornton) spitfire of an ex-wife. She brings levity to this Taylor Sheridan production. James Jordan is a Taylor Sheridan favorite having appeared in many of the filmmaker’s projects. But from 2017’s “Wind River” to “Mayor of Kingstown,” Jordan’s characters always die. So will he die in “Landman?” Kayla Wallace plays Rebecca Falcone, a big city causation of liability lawyer while Paulina Chavez is the grieving widow Ariana in Taylor Sheridan’s “Landman.” Take a look at my interview with Larter, Jordan (he plays petroleum engineer Dale Bradley), Mark Collie (Sheriff Walt Joeberg), Jacob Lofland (he plays the son of Billy Bob Thornton’s character), Wallace, and Chavez. “Landman” is now available to stream on Paramount+.
