From Academy Award® Nominee Taylor Sheridan and Starring Oscar® Winner Billy Bob Thornton and Academy Award Nominee Demi Moore Produced by Showtime/MTV Entertainment Studios and 101 Studios
March 12, 2025 – LANDMAN ranked as a Top 10 SVOD Original Series across all SVODs for Q4 alongside Paramount+ originals TULSA KING and LIONESS.
This marks ONLY the second time since Nielsen began tracking SVODs (Q3–17), that a service had three of the top 10 series outside of Netflix
LANDMAN had 35 million global streaming viewers for the premiere episode and set new records for Paramount+:
- Most watched global premiere and finale of any series in Paramount+ history
- #1 Paramount+ original ever on the service
- #1 engagement driver
- #1 on households
- Billy Bob Thornton scored a Golden Globe® nomination for Best Actor in a Drama Series for his role as “Tommy Norris.”
- SHOWTIME/MTV Entertainment Studios and 101 Studios continue red-hot streak with three of the top ten Q4 streaming series
"LANDMAN was one of the biggest shows of the year because of Taylor Sheridan’s unique ability to tap into the cultural zeitgeist, harnessing the Neo-Western themes of rugged individualism, ambition and working-class struggles set against contemporary debates around energy, climate change and economic growth,” said Chris McCarthy. “The series has helped drive Paramount+ to new heights as the number two SVOD in the U.S. for Original Hours Watched in Q4, alongside our other hit series TULSA KING, THE AGENCY, LIONESS and DEXTER®: ORIGINAL SIN.”
Starring Academy Award winner Billy Bob Thornton and Academy Award nominee Demi Moore, and from co-creators Taylor Sheridan and Christian Wallace, LANDMAN is set in the proverbial boomtowns of West Texas and is a modern-day tale of fortune-seeking in the world of oil rigs. Based on the notable 11-part podcast Boomtown from Imperative Entertainment and Texas Monthly, 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 addition to Thornton and Moore, LANDMAN stars Academy Award nominee Andy Garcia, Ali Larter, Jacob Lofland, Michelle Randolph, Paulina Chávez, Kayla Wallace, Mark Collie, James Jordan and Colm Feore.
LANDMAN is executive produced by co-creator Taylor Sheridan, David C. Glasser, David Hutkin, Ron Burkle, Bob Yari, co-creator 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. Tommy Turtle serves as co-executive producer.
The series is produced by MTV Entertainment Studios, 101 Studios and Sheridan’s Bosque Ranch Productions. LANDMAN is distributed by Paramount Global Content Distribution.
