With Landman 2 on the way and buzz building fast, fans are not just tuning in for the grit and drama - they are also wondering how much the guy is getting paid to swagger around in cowboy boots. Thornton's exact per-episode salary for Landman 2 has not been made public, but if history is any indication, he is not showing up for pocket change.
