Yellowstone, the show that kicked off Taylor Sheridan's empire, may be ending this year, but that doesn't mean that the ever-busy creator is taking a break. Along with his ever-growing slate of Yellowstone spinoffs, Sheridan's universe keeps expanding to other shows including Tulsa King, Lioness, and now his new podcast-inspired show, Land Man.

What's it about?

Based off the podcast Boomtown, the series “is set in the proverbial boomtowns of West Texas and is a modern day tale of fortune seeking in the world of oil rigs. 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.”

Who's starring in it?

Back in early 2022, it was announced that Billy Bob Thornton was set to star in the series as Tommy Norris, a crisis manager for an oil company. Thornton has previously appeared in 1883 as the real life gunslinger Jim Courtright.

In addition to Thornton, Ali Larter, Michelle Randolph, and Jacob Lofland have all been added to the cast as members of the Norris family. Larter will play Tommy's ex-wife Angela, while Randolph and Lofland will play the couple's children, Ainsley and Cooper. Described as Norris's "wild and strong-willed seventeen-year-old daughter," Ainsley will certainly be familiar to fans of the Sheridan-verse, as Randolph also starred as Elizabeth Dutton alongside Helen Mirren and Harrison Ford in the most recent Yellowstone prequel 1923. Lofland will play Cooper, "Tommy’s son, who is new to the demanding work in the oil and gas fields of west Texas," per Variety.

Another new development in the Yellowstone universe is a new show with Matthew McConaughey. Read about the new developments HERE.
