Meet the Cast

Tommy Norris is the protagonist of Landman, portrayed by Oscar-winner Billy Bob Thornton. A weather-beaten crisis manager ("fixer") for M-Tex Oil in West Texas, Tommy navigates cartel threats, family chaos, corporate politics, and the daily dangers of the oil industry. He's a pragmatic survivor who knows how to negotiate million-dollar deals and handle deadly situations—but struggles to balance the job's demands with his relationships with ex-wife Angela and children Cooper and Ainsley.

Angela Norris is Tommy's ex-wife, portrayed by Ali Larter in Taylor Sheridan's Landman. A strong, independent woman navigating life after divorce from an oil industry crisis manager, Angela embodies the personal cost of working in West Texas oil country. Despite their divorce, she and Tommy have rekindled a physical relationship while raising their two adult children—creating a complicated dynamic that explores whether second chances are possible when the same destructive patterns remain.

Ainsley Norris is Tommy and Angela's college-age daughter, portrayed by Michelle Randolph in Taylor Sheridan's Landman. Unlike her brother Cooper who embraced the oil business, Ainsley wants nothing to do with the industry that dominated her childhood and destroyed her parents' marriage. She dreams of marrying an NFL quarterback and escaping the chaos of West Texas oil country—a fantasy that both amuses and worries her father Tommy, who sees the naivety in her aspirations but understands her desperate desire for a life untouched by roughneck culture, cartel violence, and constant danger.

In Season 2, Cooper Norris gets everything he wanted—and loses everything that mattered. After striking oil on his first well, he faces the devastating departure of his girlfriend Ariana, who sees his moral decay. Worse, he discovers his newfound fortune is built on cartel money ("blood money"), trapping him in a deadly game that threatens to destroy the entire Norris family. Cooper's journey is no longer just about ambition; it's a tragic slide into the very corruption he once judged his father for.

Monty Miller is the CEO and driving force behind M-Tex Oil, portrayed by Emmy and Golden Globe-winning actor Jon Hamm in Taylor Sheridan's Landman. A shrewd, experienced oilman who understands both boardroom politics and roughneck culture, Monty serves as Tommy Norris's boss, mentor, and shield against corporate pressure. His sudden death from a heart attack during Season 1 creates a devastating power vacuum that fundamentally reshapes M-Tex Oil's future and forces Tommy into greater—but more precarious—leadership.

Demi Moore delivers a powerhouse performance as Cami Miller faces her darkest hour in Season 2. Following Monty's death, she uncovers a devastating legacy of fraud: M-Tex is hollowed out, the insurance money is gone, and federal prison looms. Desperate to save her company and her life, Cami is forced to navigate a minefield of bankruptcy and criminal offers, transforming from a grieving widow into a cornered survivor willing to make unthinkable alliances.

Rebecca Falcone is M-Tex Oil's sharp attorney, portrayed by Kayla Wallace in Taylor Sheridan's Landman. Brought in by Monty Miller to balance Tommy Norris's crisis management with legal expertise, Rebecca represents the moral conscience of the company—constantly wrestling with the ethical contradictions of defending an industry she personally believes is harmful. Her professional clashes with Tommy expose the central tension of modern energy: can you work within a morally compromised system while maintaining your principles?

A petroleum engineer who manages roughnecks and is Tommy's roommate. He provides technical expertise and is one of Tommy's most trusted allies.

The wheelchair-bound patriarch of the Norris family, T.L. is an oil industry veteran with a troubled past. His arrival in Season 2 reopens old wounds and family secrets.

Sheriff Walt Joeberg is the law in West Texas oil country, portrayed by Mark Collie—a 90s country music star turned actor who brings authentic Texas grit to the role. As the county sheriff, Walt occupies the impossible middle ground between his community's interests and the oil industry's demands. He's Tommy Norris's most reliable ally in law enforcement, the man who shows up when planes crash, bodies are found, or situations explode—literally and figuratively. Walt represents the complex reality of rural law enforcement in resource extraction regions, where keeping the peace often means looking the other way.

Nathan is M-Tex Oil's meticulous corporate attorney and administrator, portrayed by acclaimed actor Colm Feore. Sharing living quarters with Tommy Norris and Dale Bradley in a modest rental house, Nathan represents the legal and ethical guardrails that keep M-Tex from crossing lines that could destroy the company. Promoted to series regular for Season 2, Nathan serves as the audience's moral baseline—the voice of reason who dissects merger traps, liability nightmares, and ethical landmines while living among the men who create them. He's the suit who chose to live with roughnecks, the lawyer who understands that oil field law isn't practiced in courtrooms but in makeshift headquarters where million-dollar decisions happen over breakfast.
