Fans of Paramount+’s hit oil drama “Landman” are buzzing after the release of a gripping new trailer for Season 2, Episode 9, which drops Sunday, January 11, 2026. The promo hints at escalating tensions at M-Tex Oil, with Billy Bob Thornton’s crisis manager Tommy Norris delivering a chilling threat to Andy Garcia’s cartel boss Antonio Gallino.
Titled “Plans, Tears and Sirens,” the ninth installment — the second-to-last of the 10-episode season — promises high-stakes drama as the series barrels toward its finale. Created by Taylor Sheridan, “Landman” has been a breakout success for Paramount+, drawing record viewership and earning praise for its gritty portrayal of the West Texas oil boom.
The latest trailer, which surfaced on YouTube channels and social media earlier this week, spotlights a heated confrontation between Tommy and Gallino. Sources describe the scene as Tommy warning the powerful cartel figure amid ongoing financial and operational chaos at M-Tex. Gallino, introduced in Season 1 as a shadowy player with ties to the company’s dealings south of the border, has become a major antagonist this season, profiting from M-Tex’s successes while lurking in the background.
“Things at M-Tex are getting more chaotic,” one trailer breakdown video noted, highlighting Cami Miller’s (Demi Moore) “emotional decisions” and Gallino “sneaking into the company.” Another promo teases a “shocking twist” nobody saw coming, with sirens and tears underscoring the episode’s intense tone.
Season 2 has seen Tommy juggling dual roles as president and landman of M-Tex following the death of Monty Miller (Jon Hamm) in the Season 1 finale. Cami, Monty’s widow, has asserted greater control, leading to clashes with Tommy over risky ventures like offshore drilling. Recent episodes have explored fallout from those choices, including lawsuits, family strains, and Tommy grooming his son Cooper (Jacob Lofland) to take over field operations.
In Episode 8, “Handsome Touched Me,” which streamed January 4, Tommy recruited Cooper as the new landman, allowing him to focus on corporate crises. The move has fueled fan speculation about Thornton’s long-term role, with some trailers suggesting Cooper is “replacing Tommy” as the veteran fixer grows weary of the industry’s “shenanigans.”
Family dynamics remain central. Tommy’s ex-wife Angela (Ali Larter) has been a steady presence, with their relationship showing sparks amid proposals and getaways gone wrong. Daughter Ainsley (Michelle Randolph) and Cooper continue navigating personal lives intertwined with the oil business, including Cooper’s romance with Ariana (Paulina Chávez).
Adding to the intrigue is Gallino’s expanded arc. Played by Oscar nominee Garcia, the character emerged in Season 1’s climax, executing his own men to align with M-Tex. This season, he’s clashed with Tommy and Cami, even declaring in one promo that the company “died when her husband died.” The Episode 9 trailer amps up that rivalry, with Tommy’s threat marking a potential breaking point.
Sheridan, known for “Yellowstone” and its spinoffs, co-created “Landman” with Christian Wallace, basing it on the “Boomtown” podcast. The series has drawn acclaim for Thornton’s hangdog performance as Tommy, a weathered everyman battling billionaires, roughnecks, and personal demons. Supporting cast includes Ali Larter, Jacob Lofland, Michelle Randolph, Kayla Wallace as lawyer Rebecca Falcone, and Colm Feore as attorney Nathan.
Viewership has soared, with Season 2’s premiere amassing over 9.2 million global streams in its first days, per Paramount+. The streamer renewed the show for Season 3 in December 2025, before Season 2 concluded, signaling confidence in its future.
Episodes stream weekly on Sundays, with the season finale set for January 18, 2026. “Landman” captures the brutal realities of the oil patch — from rig explosions to boardroom betrayals — while weaving in cartel intrigue and family sagas.
As the trailer circulates, fans are debating outcomes: Will Tommy’s standoff with Gallino spark violence? Can Cami’s bold plays save M-Tex, or doom it? And with Cooper rising, is Tommy eyeing an exit?
One thing’s clear — the penultimate episode looks poised to deliver the kind of raw, unpredictable drama that has made “Landman” must-watch TV.
The show also stars Paulina Chávez, Mark Collie, James Jordan, and others. New additions like Sam Elliott as Tommy’s father T.L. have added emotional depth.
Paramount+ has positioned “Landman” as a flagship original, alongside Sheridan’s other hits. With strong reviews — Rotten Tomatoes scores hover around 77-78% for Season 2 — and Thornton’s Golden Globe-nominated turn from Season 1, expectations are high for a explosive close.
Episode 9 synopsis teases operational consequences from prior risks, personal reckonings, and key interactions among Tommy, Cami, Gallino, and the Norris family.
As one fan site put it, “urgency across almost every front” defines the run-up to the finale.
“Landman” continues to strike black gold for Paramount+, blending modern frontier tales with timely themes of fortune, family, and fallout in America’s energy heartland.
