Ali Larter, star of the Paramount+ series “Landman,” recently discussed the show’s appeal with Fox News Digital at the Critics Choice Awards. She believes the “messy” family dynamics and relatable characters draw viewers in.
Larter, who plays Angela, the former wife of Billy Bob Thornton’s character, noted the surprising success of the second season premiere. She suggested that the show offers something for everyone, from marriage storylines to comedy.
In an interview, Larter expressed her admiration for her character. She loves playing a woman who is “emotionally complex and bold.” Larter highlighted the refreshing nature of portraying a woman in her late 40s who is still vibrant and embraces her sensuality. She praised writer Taylor Sheridan for creating such a character, who challenges societal norms and encourages women to embrace their desires.
Larter also shared her routine for preparing for scenes. She emphasized the importance of hard work and dedication to looking and feeling her best. Her routine includes early mornings, exercise, and a specific diet. She also mentioned mental preparation, such as deep breathing and positive self-talk, to embody her character with confidence.
