There’s been a lot of talk about what would happen to Tommy Norris in Taylor Sheridan’s show, Landman. Now, it’s confirmed that Billy Bob Thornton‘s character, the president of M-Tex Oil, will be leaving the series. This change happens after Cami Miller (played by Demi Moore) makes a major decision in the second-to-last episode of Landman Season 2, significantly altering the show’s direction.
After Monty Miller’s death at the end of Landman Season 1, Tommy Norris, played by Thornton, took over as president of the oil company. While he previously worked as a landman and problem-solver, he’s now been sidelined, suggesting big changes are coming in Season 3.
Landman Season 2’s Offshore Rig Finally Takes Off In Episode 9
The second-to-last episode definitely shows improvement, building momentum towards the season finale. Meanwhile, as Tommy, Cami, Rebecca Falcone, and Charles Newsome travel to Louisiana to inspect their oil rig, Miller feels energized and optimistic about what’s to come.
Cami confidently walked onto the plane, wearing a flowing pink dress and lots of jewelry. She turned to her boss, Tommy, and playfully asked if he felt lucky. Tommy quickly responded that hard work, not luck, leads to success. He believed Cami was mistaken in trusting her instincts, and that what she felt wasn’t a good feeling, but simply greed.
Cami stays positive, but a clear disagreement grows between Miller and her boss. The uneasy feeling continues as Cami and Tommy leave the plane and travel to the oil rig in a fleet of black SUVs. While some, like Gallino and his wife, Bella, are as enthusiastic as Cami, Tommy isn’t convinced.
Cami Miller Officially Fires Tommy Norris In Landman Season 2
Cami, as president of M-Tex, calls Tommy over to talk things through. She resolves their disagreement by informing him that Norris has been fired, explaining that the leader of their company can’t be against the practices that made it successful. This is a major turning point for Landman and could significantly alter the direction of the show.
Recent events build on earlier hints from the show, following Tommy and Cami’s successful funding negotiation with Gallino for their offshore well project. Later, while celebrating with their families at the Cattleman’s Club, Garcia’s character voiced his suspicion that Cami didn’t fully trust Tommy, and Norris explained it was likely due to his past financial losses.
It seems Cami actually wanted to fire Tommy not due to his financial losses, but because he didn’t pursue her wealth with the same determination after his own fortune disappeared. Gallino also suggested Cami might eventually replace Norris as president of the oil company.
The actress playing Moore makes her desires very clear, directly telling Tommy what she wants. She rejects his suggestion of relaxing by the pool, emphasizing her ambition with a line from Landman Season 2: “I want success. Get that for me.”
Tommy still believes Cami should take legal action instead of continuing with the offshore well project. Cami disagreed, prioritizing keeping her promises and following her own values, even though her advisors suggested a different course of action. Now, Miller wants to rebuild trust with Tommy and plans to find someone to replace him who supports Cami’s approach.
What Tommy Norris’ Termination Means For Landman Season 3
The latest episode of Landman makes it clear that Norris is no longer the president of M-Tex. While it’s still uncertain exactly how this will play out in Season 3, the Season 2 finale will likely offer some clues. The show is heading in a new direction, with possibilities that weren’t originally anticipated.
It’s very likely Tommy will be replaced as president of M-Tex, and Norris is considering his next steps based on how the final episode of Landman Season 2 unfolds. A key question is whether Tommy was completely fired from the company, or just removed from his position as president. If it’s the latter, Thornton’s character could go back to working as a landman, which is what he truly enjoys.
The show could also be hinting at a future where Tommy and his son, Cooper (Jacob Lofland), become business partners, financing Cooper’s oil wells. This would shift the focus of Landman towards a story about family and continuing a legacy, similar to what Taylor Sheridan explored in Yellowstone.
If a third season of Landman brings Tommy and Cooper into a business partnership, the show could build on storylines from Season 2. Tommy’s father, T.L. (Sam Elliott), has experience in the oil field and could help with the new venture. Additionally, the character of M-Tex might leave his current job to join Tommy’s project, allowing his story to continue developing.
