The finale of Landman raises questions about Tommy’s fate and Andy Garcia’s cartel character
Midland: So, the first season of *Landman* wrapped up, and it left us hanging. Billy Bob Thornton plays Tommy Norris, who’s been through a lot. He started off in a rough spot but really found his groove as the season went on. The chemistry between him and Ali Larter, who plays Angela, added a nice touch to the drama.
In the finale, things got intense. Jon Hamm’s character, Monty, was in the hospital, and it looked like he might not make it. Tommy was there, trying to figure out what to do next. Monty’s will said Tommy would take over M-TEX if he passed, and that’s a big deal. But then, Monty flatlined, and it seemed like Tommy was about to face a whole new set of challenges.
Now, Tommy’s got to deal with the financial future of M-TEX, especially with a huge deal worth nearly $200 million on the line. Cami, Monty’s wife, told Tommy to go for it, which means he’s got to make some tough calls. He needs Rebecca, the lawyer, to help him navigate this tricky situation. Their dynamic has been interesting, and it looks like it’ll be crucial moving forward.
And then there’s the cartel. Tommy’s had a rough relationship with them, and in the finale, they really turned up the heat. They tied him up and made it clear they meant business. But even with all that chaos, Tommy’s thoughts were with Angela, who he’s been trying to reconnect with throughout the season.
As for Andy Garcia, he made a brief but impactful appearance as the cartel boss, Garlindo. His character brought a new level of tension, showing just how intertwined the worlds of oil and drugs really are. It’s clear that this alliance is going to be a big part of any future seasons.
So, what’s next for Tommy? He’s in a tough spot, but there’s a lot of potential for drama and conflict. The show has set up some intriguing storylines, and fans are definitely eager for more. Here’s hoping for a season two that dives deeper into these characters and their struggles.
