Even without official word from Paramount, the casting call seemed to confirm not just that season 2 was happening but that it was imminently filming.

Our Take On The Landman Renewal
Landman’s Sophomore Season Will Hopefully Come This Year
I was expecting this news to come this week, if not sooner, given that the casting call leak seemed to confirm season 2. With Paramount+ hopping on the renewal announcement, it seems likely that season 2 could come as early as this year. Last time, the Sheridan series began production in February 2024 and wrapped in June, with a debut in November. If it follows the same pace,Landmanseason 2 will arrive around December 2025 or early 2026. However, given how successful it was for Paramount+, the network may sink more resources into a speedy post-production process.
