Ali Larter Reveals What She Stole from the Landman Set (Exclusive)

There’s nothing like shopping in your own closet — especially if you’re Ali Larter.
The Landman star, 49, attended the 2026 Critics Choice Awards on Sunday, Jan. 4, where she spoke with PEOPLE about portraying firecracker housewife Angela on the western drama. While filming season 2, which is currently airing on Paramount+, Larter reveals she collected some souvenirs from the set to bring home.
“I took the Leddy’s cowboy boots, and I have the Agent Provocateur bra from episode 7,” she shares of the luxury shoe and lingerie brands. “What else did I steal from her? Oh, a good pair of Wranglers. I have some jeans — got to have them.”
The hit Taylor Sheridan series was inspired by the real-life oil boom in West Texas and stars Billy Bob Thornton as Tommy Norris, an oil man who has reconciled with his firecracker ex-wife, Angela (Larter).
Since its November 2024 debut, Landman has become a massive hit. Just two weeks after its season 2 premiere late last year, the show was renewed for season 3, which Larter told Deadline will continue to document Angela and Tommy’s “shenanigans.”
“And then, as an actress, I’ll still be always searching for moments with my costars that are really grounded and real and that I can kind of dig into,” she noted.
Larter also acknowledged that Sheridan “definitely leaned into the family,” in season 2, but she said “we also understand the tones of our show.”
“He knows when he wants Angela to come on and deliver a laugh, like a breath of fresh comedy. Then he moves into an intimate, dramatic scene with Jacob [Lofland] and Ariana [Paulina Chávez],” she explained. “So I don’t think the formula’s going to change.”
In November, the Legally Blonde alum opened up to PEOPLE about taking on the role of Angela in Landman, calling it a “freeing” experience.

“Angela walks through life without the fear of judgment of others. She makes up her own rules. And for me, that’s so exciting to play, because I’m not like that,” Larter said of the character. “And you really can’t be like that in most areas of life if you want to fit into the societal norms.”
Still, there’s challenges with the job — particularly when it comes to certain wardrobe choices.
“Anytime you have to put on a bathing suit and walk in front of anybody, it’s really difficult,” Larter admitted. “When I look around, the sexiest women I know are the women that own it. So, part of getting there with Angela is owning it. There is no space in my mind for insecurity — I’m not allowing any of that into my space when I play Angela.”
