'Landman' Adds 'The Untouchables' Star Andy Garcia, 3 Others


Oh you thought casting news for upcoming Paramount+ series Landman was over? Well there’s still more to cover, with names rather familiar to the Paramount family coming to the Taylor Sheridan-created series. Andy García has been set for a key role, while Mustafa Speaks, Octavio Rodriguez, and J.R. Villarreal are all set to recur.

Garcia will play the extremely capable, powerful and practical Galino. Speaks will play Boss, one of Tommy Norris’s more experienced employees, described as “tough-as-nails and “has seen it all”. Rodriguez will play Antonio, a hard man riled up after a family tragedy, while Villarreal will play Manuel, an oil crewman who seeks revenge after a disaster. They join Billy Bob Thornton as Tommy Norris, and a cast that includes Ali Larter, Michelle Randolph, Jacob Lofland, Kayla Wallace, James Jordan, Mark Collie, Paulina Chávez, and Demi Moore, with Jon Hamm and Colm Feore recurring.

Garcia most recently starred in the Netflix film Pain Hustlers with Chris Evans, Emily Blunt, and Catherine O’Hara. He also joined Sylvester Stallone for Expendables 4 and starred in and produced Max’s reimagining of Father of the Bride. For Paramount Pictures, he has appeared in their Book Club movies and The Untouchables and received an Academy Award nomination for Best Supporting Actor for playing Vincent Mancini in The Godfather Part III. His most recent television role was guest starring as Pad-Varr in the episode “Kid Kree” of animated Disney Channel series Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur. Villarreal also had a recent Disney gig, starring as Cruz de la Vega aka Black Scorpion on the now-unavailable wrestling sitcom Ultra Violet & Black Scorpion. More recently he played Tio Tonio on the Netflix series Freeridge. Speaks was a series regular on Joe Pickett over its two seasons, and recurs Coach Kenny Boone on The CW’s All American, having previously done so on Netflix’s Seven Seconds.

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. The series is executive produced by Sheridan, co-creator Christian Wallace, David C. Glasser, ​David Hutkin, Ron Burkle, Bob Yari​, Geyer Kosinski, Michael Friedman and Stephen Kay. Dan Friedkin and Jason Hoch, for Imperative Development LLC, and J.K. Nickell and Megan Creydt, for Texas Monthly, also executive produce. Peter Feldman serves as co-executive producer. It is produced by MTV Entertainment Studios, 101 Studios and Sheridan’s Bosque Ranch Productions.
