Landman fans clamoring for season three will have to wait a little longer.

Taylor Sheridan’s series is just about to begin production on its third season, according to James Jordan, an actor and one of the Yellowstone creator’s top collaborators.

Landman, a gritty Western series which follows a top oil executive played by Billy Bob Thornton,premiered in 2024. Its 10-episode second season began airing in November 2025, with the finale dropping in early 2026. Fans were hoping that season three would debut before the end of 2026. However, Jordan confirmed that won’t be happening.

“We’re about to start Landman Season 3,” Jordan confirmed to TV Insider. “So, we’re getting those scripts. We’re about to get to work, and we’re going to try to have that out as soon as we can. So, stick around for that.”

Jordan currently stars in both Landman and Lioness, which is in the middle of airing its third season. Speaking about Sheridan to TV Insider, he called the prolific writer “unmatched.”

“He’s unrivaled as a writer in the talent department. I mean, his imagination,” Jordan said.

In addition to Yellowstone, Lioness, and Landman, Sheridan is responsible for several other shows including 1883, 1923 and Dutton Ranch.

He recently revealed that the latest Yellowstone spin-off, 6666, has been permanently shelved, despite Paramount having announced it was in development.

The Four Sixes Ranch, which is an active ranch in Texas’s King County, plays a role in seasons four and five of Yellowstone when character Jimmy Hurdstrom (Jefferson White) heads to a fictionalized version of the historic ranch to learn how to be a cowboy.

Paramount revealed in 2021 that it had commissioned 6666 as a spin-off, set when Comanches ruled West Texas two centuries before the events of Yellowstone. That same year, a buyer group represented by Sheridan bought the ranch after previous owner Anne Burnett Marion died the year before.

However, speaking on the Rodeo Time podcast, Sheridan said “there’s never going to be” a spin-off about the Four Sixes Ranch.

“I would never fictionalize that ranch,” he said. “People thought that that was going to be a thing, but I would never do that.”

He added that he didn’t want to be “making up lives” and “inventing a drama” at a ranch that is still active. “So now I’m trivializing and fictionalizing something where real people work, and they raise their families there, and I could never do that to them,” he said.

“I could never do that to the cowboys that dedicated themselves, and everybody that works on that ranch. I’m very protective of the Sixes, and it’s a big responsibility to be the person who has to protect that ranch, so I have to be very, very careful with it.”
