'Landman' Season 3 Production Set to Begin in Fort Worth This May

According to a Collider report published in March 2026, Landman Season 3 is scheduled to begin production in Fort Worth, Texas, in May 2026. Co-creator Christian Wallace confirmed the timing, noting that the production is planning approximately a 100-day shoot.

Why Fort Worth matters

Previous seasons filmed in and around Midland-Odessa and other West Texas locations, using the Permian Basin as both backdrop and character. Moving primary production to Fort Worth does not mean the show is leaving West Texas narratively; it suggests a logistical consolidation. Fort Worth offers larger production facilities, easier crew access, and more predictable infrastructure for a season expected to be as visually ambitious as the last.

The summer heat concern

Wallace acknowledged that a May start pushes much of the shoot into the Texas summer, when temperatures on location can exceed 100 degrees Fahrenheit. That decision has practical consequences for both crew safety and scheduling. It also raises the possibility that exterior oil-field scenes will be concentrated in earlier months, with interiors and stage work saved for the hottest weeks.

What this implies for the premiere

A 100-day shoot starting in May would likely wrap in August, leaving post-production, scoring, and marketing for a late-2026 premiere. While no official date has been announced, a November 2026 window remains the most widely reported target.
