The wait is over—Paramount+ has unleashed the first trailer for Landman Season 3, and it’s pure fire. Packed with high-stakes oil wars, family betrayals, and cartel threats, the footage promises an explosive reset after Season 2’s jaw-dropping finale where Tommy Norris (Billy Bob Thornton) gets brutally ousted from M-Tex by his ruthless boss-turned-antagonist Cami Miller (Demi Moore). Tommy’s now launching his own rival empire with his son Cooper and a ragtag crew, setting up an all-out corporate showdown in the unforgiving Texas oil patch.
But the real shocker? Whispers from the set and fan circles are swirling that Demi Moore’s portrayal of the icy Cami might not survive the transition. Critics and viewers alike have called her performance “flat” and “forgettable”—lacking the raw charisma and edge needed to carry such a powerful, manipulative tycoon in a Taylor Sheridan universe full of larger-than-life personalities. Moore, despite her star power and recent awards buzz, has been accused of phoning it in, making Cami feel more like a corporate placeholder than a formidable force.
Enter the rumored replacement: a bolder, more electrifying actress who’s reportedly being eyed to inject fresh venom into the role. Sources close to production hint at someone with undeniable screen presence—think a performer known for intense, unapologetic roles who can dominate scenes with sheer attitude and sex appeal. This potential recast would flip the power dynamic entirely, turning Cami from a subtle schemer into a full-blown villainess capable of going toe-to-toe with Thornton’s gritty Tommy in ways that could redefine the show’s tension.
Why the change? Season 3 appears poised for a major tonal shift. With Tommy rebuilding from scratch amid cartel warnings and family drama, the corporate side needs a heavier hitter to keep the stakes sky-high. Fans have long complained that Cami’s arc felt underdeveloped—starting as a background player in Season 1, gaining more screen time in Season 2, but still failing to ignite the same spark as other Sheridan women like those in Yellowstone or 1923. A recast could solve that, bringing in someone who embodies the cutthroat glamour of big oil while adding layers of unpredictability.
Of course, nothing’s official yet. Paramount+ remains tight-lipped, and Moore’s future hangs in the balance as co-creators tease “big opportunities” for how characters evolve. Billy Bob Thornton has already confirmed he’s locked in for the long haul, and the core ensemble—including Sam Elliott, Ali Larter, and Andy Garcia—seems solid. But if the rumors hold, this casting shake-up could be the boldest move yet in Sheridan’s empire-building saga.
One thing’s clear: the Landman Season 3 trailer has fans buzzing, divided between loyalty to Moore and excitement for a potential upgrade. Will Cami return fiercer than ever, or is her era over? Buckle up—the oil fields are about to get a whole lot hotter.
