Paramount Network is giving fans a sneak preview of its upcoming new show, Landman, and the first trailer features plenty of drama and intrigue, as well as a stellar cast of award-winning actors.

Billy Bob Thornton stars in Landman as Tommy Norris, whose job is to secure the land for major oil companies to drill, as well as manage the people involved.

"First part's pretty simple," the Oscar winner says in an ominous voiceover in the trailer below, which Paramount released on Thursday morning (Sept. 5).

"It's the second part that can get you killed."

The trailer shows explosions, fires, dirty dealing, drama and all sorts of intrigue, all set within the high-stakes world of the oil business in West Texas.

A press release describes Landman as a "modern-day tale of fortune-seeking in the world of oil rigs" and an "upstairs/downstairs story of roughnecks and wildcat billionaires fueling a boom so big, it’s reshaping our climate, our economy and our geopolitics."

Golden Globe nominee Demi Moore and former Man Men star and Emmy Award winner Jon Hamm also star in the show, along with Ali Larter, Michelle Randolph from 1923, James Jordan from Yellowstone, country singer Mark Collie and more.

Hamm is set to star in a recurring guest role, with Andy Garcia and Michael Peña also appearing as guest stars.

Landman is slated to premiere on Sunday, Nov. 17, via Paramount+. The series will launch with two episodes, and subsequent episodes of the 10-episode first season will land every Sunday.

PICS: See Inside Taylor Sheridan's Historic 6666 Ranch in Texas

The massive, historic Texas ranch where the upcoming Yellowstone spinoff Yellowstone: 6666 will shoot has sold for just under $200 million, and pictures show a property that is truly part of Texas history.

The 6666 Ranch — better-known as the Four Sixes Ranch — in Guthrie, Texas, dates back to 1870. The ranch centers around a 13-bedroom, 13-bathroom, 13,280-square-foot main residence, which is constructed of quarry rock that was hauled to Guthrie by wagon. The ranch also includes vast, sweeping fenced pastures, farmland, fenced-in pens for cattle, a more recent addition for horses, a water filtration plant that serves the ranch's water needs and more.

There are separate camp manager's homes in both the North Camp and the South Camp of the ranch, which encompasses nearly 225 square miles of land. Yellowstone creator Taylor Sheridan is part of a group of investors who recently acquired the property for $192 million, and he has been shooting his new show out there in recent months.
