Fresh off the biggest awards season of her career,Demi Moorehas officially returned to Fort Worth to begin filmingLandmanSeason 2. The actress — who recently earned her first-ever Oscar nomination forThe Substance— confirmed via Instagram on Sunday, April 7, that she was back on set ofTaylor Sheridan’slatest hit Paramount+ drama.
“It’s my first day back on set,” Moore shared in a midday Story, showing off her custom sneakers (emblazoned with a photo of her hilariously tiny dog, Pilaf) and socks from her daughterRumer Willis. The post marks the first public acknowledgment of her return toLandman, where she plays Cami Miller, the calculating wife of oil tycoon Monty Miller (played byJon Hamm) and longtime friend of series lead Tommy Norris (Billy Bob Thornton).
Moore’s return toLandmancomes after a celebrated performance in the buzzy body-horror filmThe Substance, which premiered at Cannes andwent on to land her an Oscar nomination for Best Actress. In the movie, she plays a fading celebrity who injects a mysterious black-market drug that creates a younger, better version of herself — where can we get one of these? It’s been a day.
Who Does Demi Moore Play in ‘Landman’?
LandmanSeason 1 introduced Cami as a behind-the-scenes presence — cool, composed, and often playing her cards close to the chest. She spent most of the season quietly navigating the power dynamics between her husband Monty and Tommy, and if we’re honest, basically getting drinks for people. A bit of a waste. But her role dramatically expanded after Monty suffered a heart attack and laterdied in the finale, leavingCami and Tommy in control of M-TEX Oil, the multibillion-dollar company at the center of the series. That’s a bit more interesting thanthe wife.
Moore, who was a background figure despite appearing frequently in the series, is now expected to have a significantly larger role in Season 2. When Paramount announced the cast lineup for the new season, Moore wassecond-billed, right behind Thornton — a clear signal that Cami is stepping into the spotlight. The Season 2 cast will includePaulina Chávez,Jacob Lofland,Ali Larter,Michelle Randolph,Kayla Wallace,James Jordan,Colm Feore, andMark Collie, withMichael Peña,Andy Garcia, and even Dallas Cowboys ownerJerry Jonesin guest roles.
All episodes ofLandmanSeason 1 are streaming now on Paramount+.
