If Taylor Sheridan is a fan of your work, then landing a part on one of his shows can be a breeze effort. Jon Hamm’s “Landman” audition was the easiest of his careerAs Sheridan basically offered him the part after flying him down to Texas to explain his vision for the show. And Billy Bob Thornton didn’t have to hear the main character “Landman” Tommy Norris either, as Sheridan wrote the oil worker’s play with the veteran actor in mind in particular. This is what Thornton said Golden derby In terms of writing the part for it only:
“You don’t get that to you very often. When someone says, ‘I think I have your voice, I know how you talk, I know how you think and I’m going to write this show specifically for you.’ It was just a great honor.
In addition to writing a character to him, Sheridan allows Thornton to improvise some of his lines on “Landman,” Although the actor rarely feels the need to do so. Having said that, Thornton convinced the rich Showrunner to change one of the key scenery of Season 1 “Landman”So it’s more than happy to offer creative input on some occasions. Still, don’t let Thornton experience deceive you into thinking that Sheridan shows are free to all, as some actors have had to jump through cycles for their parts.
Some lander stars had to fight for their parts
Billy Bob Thornton can rest well knowing that Taylor Sheridan has written a whole popular series with him in mind. Unfortunately, the same cannot be said of Ali Larter – who plays the part of Tommy’s wife, Angela Norris, on “Landman” – as she has to perform multiple script readings and attend a screen test alongside 11 other actors before she gets the NHS. It was a difficult experience, but at least ended with her knowing her character outside.
Larter is a newcomer for Sheridan’s verse, however, so maybe the Creator may want to experience the “Varsity Blues” star-to make sure it is cut out for a challenging show like “Landman.” Or maybe not, as Sheridan’s regulators like James Jordan – who have starred in most of his projects – said The taste of the country That the tireless creator also enjoys pushing some of his actors going to their limits. As Jordan said:
“I’m not the only one; he uses a handful of us over and over again. I think he likes to challenge us, to see how far he can push us, and see what we bring to the table in terms of his storytelling. And also, I think he enjoys seeing us rocking for the fences, trying to hit those home runs with his material.”
Although they do not receive an easy trip from Sheridan, Larter and Jordan have not yet complained about his processes. They seem to be as grateful to be part of his projects as Thornton is, and the success of his shows proves that his methods work.
