One of These ‘Landman’ Characters May Not Survive the Season 2 Finale – Daily News

Taylor Sheridan‘s shows are notorious for introducing shocking character deaths — and Landman’s season 2 finale will likely be no different. The Paramount+ series, which premiered in 2024, follows the world of oilfields in West Texas. Landman features Billy Bob Thornton as Tommy, a corporate fixer working for an oil titan named Monty (Jon Hamm). As the first season came to an end, Monty was killed off, setting up Demi Moore‘s Cami as the new lead.

“You kind of drop these little pieces throughout the entire season,” executive producer Christian Wallace told TV Insider in January 2025 while reflecting on the major plot twist. “There’s Monty checking his heart rate on his watch or his wife Cami telling him no more coffee and just little things that were dropped this entire time to kind of let you know that something’s going on so that when it does finally happen, it’s not just completely out of nowhere.” He continued: “But you also don’t wanna be too heavy-handed about it and just telegraph that explicitly to the viewers. So it’s just kind of a matter of trying to strike that balance of letting people know that there’s an issue without making it just the only thing that they can think about.”

The season 2 finale, which airs Sunday, January 18, is titled “Tragedy and Flies,” which could indicate a death. Sam Elliott‘s character T.L. might be the most likely option, since most of his time on screen has consisted of him complaining about various medical ailments — but he isn’t the only one who could be on the chopping block.

Cami threw Tommy a curveball when she fired him from M-Tex Oil right before the finale. Thornton has previously said he signed on for four or five seasons of Landman, but it remains to be seen how Sheridan’s plans shake out.
