The production has coordinated with Dallas police for efficient traffic control to manage the flow of vehicles during this period.
In terms of the series itself, ‘Landman’ features actor Billy Bob Thornton and explores the historical context of oil companies operating in the Wild West. The show, which premiered on Paramount+ in November 2024 and completed its first season on January 12, 2025, draws inspiration from a Texas Monthly podcast titled ‘Boomtown’. The first season received positive reviews and starred a notable cast, including Demi Moore, Jon Hamm, and Michael Peña.
Before making its way to Dallas, ‘Landman’ filmed scenes in Fort Worth and Jacksboro. Notable locations in these earlier shoots included Mister Charles, a Michelin-recommended restaurant, and settings like 2200 Flora St.. The production process involves setting up elaborate camera equipment and staging, making the logistics quite involved.
Filming in Dallas is expected to continue for the entire week, with plans to return to Fort Worth afterwards. On July 22, Texas Christian University, known as TCU, will host shooting for an on-campus scene, adding to the local flavor of the production. Furthermore, a hotel pool scene is scheduled for July 23, indicating a busy filming agenda ahead.
The series has previously utilized several local venues for shooting, including Hotel Drover and Rick’s Cabaret, contributing to the immersive experience that local viewers have come to appreciate. All episodes from the first season of ‘Landman’ are currently available for streaming on Paramount+, allowing fans to catch up on the storyline ahead of the new season’s episodes.
