In a significant update on Taylor Sheridan’s much-anticipated Paramount+ series Landman, four accomplished actors have been announced as new series regulars, exclusively reported by Variety.
Kayla Wallace, known for her role in When Calls The Heart, joins the cast along with James Jordan, a frequent collaborator with Sheridan on Yellowstone, Mark Collie from Nashville, and Paulina Chávez from The Expanding Universe of Ashley Garcia.
These additions complement the previously revealed lead Billy Bob Thornton, and fellow series regulars Ali Larter, Michelle Randolph, and Jacob Lofland.
Landman, adapted from the podcast Boomtown, unfolds in West Texas, delving into the realm of oil rigs. The series is described as an “upstairs/downstairs story of roughnecks and wildcat billionaires fueling a boom so big, it’s reshaping our climate, our economy, and our geopolitics.”
Kayla Wallace takes on the role of Rebecca Savage, an adept and formidable liability attorney dispatched to West Texas to rectify a mess. James Jordan embodies Dale Bradley, a petroleum engineer and blue-collar figure managing roughnecks, and Mark Collie portrays Sheriff Joeberg, the quintessential West Texas sheriff.
Paulina Chávez steps into the character of Ariana, a young mother facing family misfortune.
The star-studded cast underscores the series’ commitment to delivering a compelling narrative set against the backdrop of the oil fields. Landman is co-created and executive produced by Taylor Sheridan and Christian Wallace, featuring an ensemble of talented actors.
The series is produced by MTV Entertainment Studios, with Sheridan’s Bosque Ranch Productions at the helm, reflecting Paramount Global’s continued investment in engaging content.
