Paramount Plus isn't bringing a ton of original movies and shows to the streaming service this month. But what it's lacking in quantity, it's more than making up for with quality.
This November, two massive new shows are premiering on Paramount Plus. First is "Landman," the latest show from prolific writer/director Taylor Sheridan. Then at the end of the month is the series premiere of "The Agency," a new spy thriller starring Michael Fassbender. That's limited to those subscribed to Paramount Plus with Showtime, who will also get access to the streaming debut of the Viggo Mortensen Western movie "The Dead Don't Hurt."
Of course, Paramount Plus isn't just about original movies and shows. It also offers a deep library of licensed shows and movies, as well as live sports, including NFL livestreams, Champions League livestreams and more.
Here's our detailed guide to everything coming to Paramount Plus in November 2024.
NEW ON PARAMOUNT PLUS IN NOVEMBER 2024: TOP PICKS
'Landman' series premiere
“Landman” is the latest show from Taylor Sheridan, the creator of the hit show "Yellowstone." And having seen the first episode at an early screening, I won't be surprised at all if it's also a massive hit. In fact, I'll be surprised if it's not.
The show is adapted from the 2019 podcast “Boomtown” and is set in the world of Texas oil, mostly in the Permian Basin. It stars Billy Bob Thornton as Tommy Norris (Billy Bob Thornton), a crisis executive or “landman” for a Texas Oil company run by Monty Miller (Jon Hamm). Surrounding these two old friends are Demi Moore as Monty's wife and another old friend of Tommy's, Ali Larter as Tommy's ex-wife, Michelle Randolph as his daughter and Jacob Lofland as Tommy's son who just started working in the oil fields with a crew that includes Michael Peña as Armando.
Thornton's performance is definitely one to watch, but keep an eye out for Andy García as Galino, whose impact on the show will likely be felt before the season is over.
Premieres Nov. 17 on Paramount Plus
'The Agency' series premiere
"The Agency" stars Michael Fassbender as a covert CIA agent in deep cover in the field for years. But when the department responsible for training and handling deep-cover agents loses an agent, he's yanked from the field and forced to abandon his cover.
That comes with a set of challenges, not least of which is the re-emergence of his former romantic partner Sami (Jodie Turner-Smith). Also starring Jeffrey Wright as Henry, who appears to be a fellow agent, and Richard Gere as Bosko, who heads the department, expect this thriller to take some dark twists and turns.
Premieres Nov. 29 on Paramount Plus with Showtime
'The Dead Don't Hurt'
"The Dead Don't Hurt" is comprised of two storylines across several years, and is presented as a nonlinear narrative (think "Pulp Fiction"). It stars Vicky Krieps as Vivienne Le Coudy, a French Canadian woman who falls in love with a Danish immigrant carpenter named Holger (Viggo Mortenson).
They leave San Francisco and Vivienne's pesky suitors behind for Holger's cabin near Elk Flats Nevada. But Vivienne refuses to marry Holger, which leaves her open to the unwanted advances of the son of a powerful local landowner (Solly McLeod). That proves to be a problem once Holger leaves Nevada to fight with the Union Army in the U.S. Civil War.
Premieres Nov. 1. on Paramount Plus with Showtime
