July 9 (UPI) -- Paramount+ announced Tuesday that Landman, its new contemporary western starring Billy Bob Thornton, is set to premiere on Nov. 17.

The 10-episode, Taylor Sheridan-created series also stars Ali Larter, Michelle Randolph, Jacob Lofland, Kayla Wallace, James Jordan, Mark Collie, Paulina Chávez, Demi Moore, Jon Hamm, Andy Garcia and Michael Pe?a.

"Set in the proverbial boomtowns of West Texas, Landman is a modern-day tale of fortune seeking in the world of oil rigs," a synopsis said.

"Based on the notable 11-part podcast Boomtown, the series is an upstairs/downstairs story of roughnecks and wildcat billionaires fueling a boom so big, it's reshaping our climate, our economy and our geopolitics."

Sheridan is also the mastermind behind Yellowstone, 1883, 1923, Mayor of Kingstown and Lioness.
