‘Landman’ actor Demi Moore and children ‘like family’ starring Billy Bob Thornton

From a Montana ranch to West Texas oil rigs, “Yellowstone” fans are in for a treat as director Taylor Sheridan is set to premiere his next project, “Landman.”

While Billy Bob Thornton shared the screen again with Demi Moore, the Hollywood actor told Fox News Digital that he has maintained a good relationship with his co-star and her family over the years – including ex-husband Bruce Willis.

“She’s always been a sweetheart,” Thornton said of Moore. “She was so nice to me when I first met her when I only had two scenes in a movie she was in, and she’s just as nice today as she was then.”

Willis and his ex-wife Moore share three daughters together – Rumer, Scout and Tallulah.

In March 2022, it was announced that Willis would be “stepping away” from his acting career due to an aphasia diagnosis. It was later announced that he had been diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia, or FTD.

While at the “Landman” premiere, Thornton told Fox News Digital about the challenges he faced while filming in Texas for the show.

“We started in extreme cold and we froze to death for the first few months. Even inside because you can’t run heaters while you’re shooting,” Thornton explained.

“When we finished it was boiling hot. Now boiling heat isn’t so bad… I grew up in Arkansas… but I’ve been in California since 1980. So my blood is very thin now.” he said with a smile.

“When you’re trying to deliver a three-page monologue in 100-degree heat and you feel like you might just pass out any minute, it’s not easy. But I can’t complain. I mean… I give a to live for my family doing something I love… I work with people that I love and love so no one complains.”
