After shocking deaths and dramatic twists, Taylor Sheridan‘s hit series Landman will continue to take viewers on a bumpy ride ahead of season 3.
Kayla Wallace exclusively told Us Weekly what to expect — especially for her character Rebecca.
“People will get to see some more cracks in her personality,” she teased. “And she’s definitely going to face some challenges in the workplace too.”
Wallace specifically pointed out how Rebecca’s elevated role at M-Tex Oil will provide obstacles, saying, “This is such a big change for her. She’s always going to question her life and she’s always going to question everything and reassess.”
But fans shouldn’t be too worried.
“We also see her kind of growing into this family. M-Tex is in trouble and she’s there in an instant,” she noted. “You see this juxtaposition where it is not really a natural thing for her to be a team member. She’s kind of a lone wolf and one for her own but she’s holding onto the family a little bit.”
Season 2 will show “more sides” of who Rebecca is. “Season 1, there was basically no smiling from her. Now we’re starting to see her human. She’s not a perfectly put together person,” Wallace continued. “She has these little flaws, which I’m so happy that I got to explore. People will get to see even more of that — more of the humanity in her.”
The Paramount+ hit already introduced an unexpected story in the Sunday, December 7, episode where Rebecca ran into charming oil and gas engineer Charlie Newsom (Guy Burnet).
“He’s just the total opposite of her. First of all, he’s dirty and working in the fields. She’s always put together in her stilettos,” Wallace shared. “She’s very uptight and runs very in control of everything. He’s this relaxed, easy going and happy go lucky guy.”
Sunday’s episode allowed Rebecca to be the “comedic relief” as the Norris family prepared for a funeral. After getting on a packed private plane, Rebecca’s fear of turbulence caused her to bond with Charlie over a drink — or several.
Emerson Miller/Paramount+ Taylor Sheridan‘s Landman had fans on the edge of their seats — but what would season 2 cover after that shocking death? Landman, which premiered in November 2024, is Sheridan’s newest hit series, joining the ranks of Yellowstone, Mayor of Kingstown, Tulsa King, Lawmen: Bass Reeves and Lioness. Based on the “Boomtown” podcast […]
“[To film the plane scenes], we were in our studio and they built the inside of a private jet. They built it on a rig and then they wiggle it around. There were various levels of wiggling so we had to do a safety test for it,” Wallace noted. “They started off really easy and then it started to really feel like a roller-coaster.”
She continued: “But it was so much fun. It was so safe and we were strapped in but they really made it look real.”
Wallace also got the chance to challenge herself as an actress playing someone highly inebriated, saying, “I was worried about that. I was like, ‘I don’t want it to look like I’m trying too hard.’ Guy and I just got to be so silly in that scene. It’s just ridiculous. We were just drinking watermelon juice but it was all over me by the end of the day. We had sticky hands and it was just such a ridiculous scene that it made the true belly laughs very real. It was delicious and I was so hydrated by the end of the day.”
New episodes of Landman season 2 premiere via Paramount+ every Sunday.
