You might use viewWillLayoutSubviews. This question should be helpful but this is bassically called whenever the view controller views is about to layout its subviews.

So your code will look like this:

override func viewWillLayoutSubviews() {
  super.viewWillLayoutSubviews()

  guard let flowLayout = collectionView.collectionViewLayout as? UICollectionViewFlowLayout else {
    return
  }

  if UIInterfaceOrientationIsLandscape(UIApplication.sharedApplication().statusBarOrientation) {
    //here you can do the logic for the cell size if phone is in landscape
  } else {
    //logic if not landscape 
  }

  flowLayout.invalidateLayout()
}
