Taylor Sheridan’s ‘Landman’ Eyes Season 3 Return as ‘The Madison’ Launches

LOS ANGELES (Azat TV) – Fans of Taylor Sheridan’s gritty oil-industry drama, «Landman», are looking ahead to a confirmed third season, with filming expected to resume this spring, even as Sheridan prepares to launch a new, more ‘intimate’ series, «The Madison», on Paramount+ in March 2026. This dual focus underscores Sheridan’s expanding television empire and Paramount+’s strategy to continually refresh its exclusive content, offering diverse narratives within his signature storytelling style.

«Landman» Concludes Season Two, Looks to the Future

«Landman» concluded its second season on January 18, 2026, delivering its final tenth episode and leaving fans eager for more of the neo-western drama. The series, which centers on the cutthroat world of West Texas oil, has already been renewed for a third season by Paramount+. Co-creator Christian Wallace indicated in a November 2025 interview with The Hollywood Reporter that a 2026 debut for Season 3 is ‘the plan,’ following the pattern of its previous November premieres in 2024 and 2025.

Actor Sam Elliott, who joined the cast for the second season, confirmed to Extra TV in November 2025 that filming for Season 3 is anticipated to resume in ‘April and May’ of this year. Season 2 concluded with protagonist Tommy Norris (Billy Bob Thornton) embarking on a new, high-stakes venture, forming his own oil company with the financial backing of cartel boss Gallino (Andy Garcia). The agreement, which includes a 50/50 profit split and the utilization of his son Cooper’s (Jacob Lofland) recently acquired oil drilling leases, sets a precarious stage for the upcoming season, with Gallino vowing severe consequences if the deal falters.

Introducing «The Madison»: A Shift in Tone

Adding another layer to Taylor Sheridan’s prolific output, «The Madison» is set to premiere on Paramount+ on March 14, 2026. Described as Sheridan’s ‘most intimate work to date,’ the six-episode season delves into themes of grief and human connection. The series, directed by «Yellowstone» veteran Christina Alexandra Voros, explores the juxtaposition of two distinct worlds: the serene landscape of Montana’s Madison River valley and the bustling energy of Manhattan.

Michelle Pfeiffer leads the cast as Stacy Clyburn, the matriarch of a family that relocates from New York City to Montana in the aftermath of a profound tragedy. The narrative is expected to be a ‘heartfelt study of grief and human connection,’ as Stacy grapples with immense personal loss. While no full trailer has been released, a brief teaser highlighted Pfeiffer’s character stating, ‘My center, my soul, is gone,’ and her desire to ‘feed’ her heart without factoring in logic.

Star-Studded Cast and Production Details

«The Madison» boasts an impressive ensemble cast alongside Michelle Pfeiffer. Kurt Russell portrays Preston Clyburn, contemplating his golden years while fishing in the show’s namesake river. Matthew Fox, known for «Lost», plays Paul, an outdoorsman and self-reliant bachelor. Patrick J. Adams, of «Suits» fame, takes on the role of Russell McIntosh, an investment banker whose life path was set from the start. His wife, Paige McIntosh, a ‘somewhat self-centered woman,’ is played by Elle Chapman. Beau Garrett plays Abigail Reese, a ‘resilient and sardonic New Yorker’ and recently divorced mother, with Amiah Miller as her oldest daughter, Bridgett. Will Arnett also appears as Phil Yorn, a New York City therapist.

Though only six episodes are confirmed for the initial season, executive producer David C. Glasser told the Fort Worth Star-Telegram in August 2025 that a second season was already slated to begin filming in September 2025, suggesting confidence in the series’ potential before its premiere.

Sheridan’s Expanding Paramount+ Universe

Taylor Sheridan has cemented his position as a dominant force in television, particularly with his array of dramas on Paramount+. Beyond the flagship «Yellowstone» and its prequels like «1883» and «1923», his creative ventures have explored diverse settings, from the urban landscape of Detroit in «Mayor of Kingstown» to the mob world of Tulsa in «Tulsa King». The simultaneous development and release of «Landman» and «The Madison» further demonstrate his ability to craft compelling narratives across varied genres and geographic backdrops, solidifying Paramount+’s content library with his distinctive vision.

The strategic rollout of both a returning hit like «Landman» and a new, thematically distinct series like «The Madison» highlights Taylor Sheridan’s critical role in shaping Paramount+’s identity, offering a diverse array of high-quality dramas that cater to different audience preferences while maintaining a cohesive brand through his unique authorial voice.
