Demi Moore and Ali Larter’s million-dollar salary increases for ‘Landman’ season three revealed

Demi Moore and Ali Larter have secured substantial pay raises for the third season of “Landman,” according to a recent report. Both actresses significantly negotiated their contracts for the next phase of the drama series.

Moore, who plays Cami Miller in the drama, will receive between US$740,000 and US$770,000 per episode, matching the salary of his co-star, Billy Bob Thornton. This increase puts her on the same salary level as one of the male protagonists of the production.

As negociações de contrato para Ali Larter foram concluídas apenas recentemente, resultando em mais que o dobro de seu pagamento anterior. The majority of the cast had already finalized their agreements by April, highlighting the complexity and length of their process.

A atriz, que dá vida à personagem Angela na série, agora tem rendimentos que chegam a aproximadamente US$ 350 mil por episódio. This value reflects a significant appreciation of his role and contribution to the plot.

Representatives for Moore, Larter and Paramount+ have not yet officially commented on the disclosed values. The expectation for an official position remains.

Além de Moore, de 63 anos, e Larter, de 50, todo o elenco principal da série da Paramount+, dirigida por Taylor Sheridan, também terá um aumento significativo em seus salários nesta temporada. This series of adjustments occurs in a scenario where Sheridan’s influence on the platform is notable, especially considering his recent negotiations and the strength of his productions on the streaming service.

Jacob Lofland and Michelle Randolph also saw their fees increase, reaching between US$130,000 and US$180,000 per episode. Paulina Chavez, Kayla Wallace, Mark Collie and James Jordan followed suit, with pay increases.

Billy Bob Thornton, de 70 anos, terá seu contrato renegociado caso “Landman” seja renovada para uma quarta temporada. Their initial three-year agreement provided for annual increases, culminating in the need for a new round of negotiations.

A produção, inspirada no podcast “Boomtown”, estreou em 2024 e narra a história de bilionários em busca de fortuna na indústria petrolífera. The series quickly gained a loyal audience, justifying the investments in its cast.

Filming for the third season is scheduled to begin at the end of August, in the city of Fort Worth, Texas. A locação promete trazer autenticidade à narrativa da indústria de petróleo.

In addition to “Landman”, Sheridan is the creative mind behind other successful productions such as “Yellowstone” and its prequel series, “1883” and “1923”. His vast work reinforces his position as one of the main showrunners today.

É importante destacar que “Landman” continuará sendo exibida na Paramount+, apesar dos conflitos recentes de seu showrunner com os executivos da plataforma e de seu acordo assinado com a NBCUniversal no final do ano passado. This fact underlines the importance of the series for Paramount+.

Recently, the 56-year-old “Yellowstone” creator expressed his displeasure with criticism of his creative process. He bluntly stated: “Fuck them, honestly”, demonstrating his uncompromising stance.

He praised the bygone days when figures like Steve McQueen were movie stars at Paramount and Bobby Evans ran the studios. Sheridan mencionou a ausência de “reescritas infinitas” e “reuniões com executivos sobre tom e humor”, criticando a burocracia atual.

The screenwriter complemented his speech, indicating that with him, “you won’t win Emmys.” His artistic vision moves away from traditional industry awards.

“I’m not trying,” Sheridan explained, noting that his goal is “to make someone sit on the couch and get emotional, make them think, make them laugh, scare them, excite them.” It prioritizes the audience’s experience over critical recognition.
