Landman is refining its Emmy strategy.
Paramount+ has confirmed to Gold Derby the names of the 12 performers who will be submitted on the 2025 Emmys ballot for its show about the oil industry. The list is led by Billy Bob Thornton, who earlier this year received a Best Drama Actor Golden Globe nomination for his role of Tommy Norris, an abrasive petroleum Landman who comes to the oilfields of West Texas for work.

From the mind of Taylor Sheridan (Yellowstone, 1923), this freshman drama series performed explosively last fall as the streamer’s most-watched premiere of the past two years. Landman has already been renewed for a second season. Despite creating several popular shows that audiences devour en masse, Sheridan has yet to be recognized at the Emmy Awards. However, he is an Oscar nominee for Hell or High Water (2016) in Best Original Screenplay.
Other Landman cast members include The Substance Oscar nominee Demi Moore as Cami Miller, Tommy’s friend; Mad Men Emmy winner Jon Hamm as Monty Miller, Cami’s husband and M-Tex owner; and Ali Larter as Angela Norris, the ex-wife of Tommy.
Two notable guest stars from Season 1 are Andy García as Galino, a member of the cartel; and Jerry Jones as himself, an American businessman who owns the Dallas Cowboys.
In addition to Thornton’s Golden Globe nomination for Landman, he was also feted at the Satellite Awards. Previously, he won the Oscar for Sling Blade (1996) in Best Adapted Screenplay, and received a Best Actor bid for that movie, plus a Best Supporting Actor citation for A Simple Plan (1998).
See Landman‘s Emmy acting submissions below. As these names are just Paramount+’s submissions, there’s a possibility more performers from the show will appear on the ballot as any actor can submit on their own.
Drama Actor: Billy Bob Thornton
