Just because the title is one word now doesn’t mean it doesn’t need more series regulars. Taylor Sheridan’s upcoming series Landman, originally reported as Land Man, has added four more series regulars: James Jordan, Paulina Chávez, Kayla Wallace, and Mark Collie. They join the previously reported lead Billy Bob Thornton and series regulars Ali Larter, Michelle Randolph and Jacob Lofland.
If Jordan sounds familiar at all around these parts, well that’s because it’s a common name also shared with a notorious current Ohio congressman who goes by “Jim” probably discussed on a CBS news broadcast. But this James Jordan is heading to his fifth Sheridan-created series, having first appeared on seven episodes of Yellowstone as Steve Hendon. He subsequently appeared as Ed Simmons in 10 episodes of Mayor of Kingstown, Cookie in 4 episodes of Yellowstone prequel miniseries 1883, and is already a series regular as Two Cups on Special Ops: Lioness. On Landman, he will play lDale Bradley, described as “a petroleum engineer and a blue-collar bear of a man who manages and works with roughnecks in the oil fields.” He is also the roommate of Thornton’s character Tommy Norris.
Chávez is probably best recognized as Ashley Garcia in the Netflix sitcom The Expanding Universe of Ashley Garcia, but also played Flora in season 2 of their live action Winx Club series Fate: The Winx Saga. She plays Ariana, “a young mother whose family has suffered a misfortune.” Wallace is a When Calls The Heart alum whose character Rebecca Savage is described as “an extremely capable and intimidating liability attorney sent to West Texas to clean up a mess.” Collie is a country musician who has appeared in the 2004 The Punisher Movie and 12 episodes of Nashville. He plays will play Sheriff Joeberg, whose description just reiterated him as a Sheriff in the West Texas setting.
Co-created by Sheridan and Christian Wallace and based on the Boomtown podcast, Landman is set in the famous boomtowns of West Texas. It is a modern-day tale of fortune-seeking in the oil rig business, an upstairs/downstairs story of roughnecks and wildcat billionaires fueling a boom so monumentally reshaping our climate, economy, and geopolitics. Sheridan, Wallace, Thornton, David Glasser, David Hutkin, Ron Burkle, Bob Yari, Geyer Kosinski, Dan Friedkin and Jason Hoch all serve as executive producers, as do Scott Brown and Megan Creydt for Texas Monthly, and Peter Feldman is co-executive producer. The production companies are MTV Entertainment Studios, 101 Studios, and Sheridan’s Bosque Ranch Productions.
