In addition to continually expanding the frontiers of his Yellowstone television universe with multiple spinoffs and prequels that recount the sprawling, violent history of the Dutton family, Taylor Sheridan has also been busy building new crime thriller worlds. Last year he introduced Jeremy Renner as Mike McLuskey in the prison town saga Mayor of Kingstown, which is set to return this year. And prolific showrunner Sheridan has now got another hit on his hands in Tulsa King, the mob drama which he co-created with Terence Winter, and which stars action movie legend Sylvester Stallone in his first leading TV role.
“There is no better team to tell this story of a fish-out-of-water mobster than Taylor Sheridan and Terence Winter,” executive producer David Glasser said prior to the release of Tulsa King. “Their talent behind the camera, paired with the iconic Sylvester Stallone, will deliver a thrilling look at a man who prioritizes loyalty and family over all else, and is now taking stock of his life and grappling with the choices that have brought him to Tulsa.”
Stallone plays Dwight “The General” Manfredi, a mafia capo from New York City who is released from prison at the start of the series, only to be dispatched by his employers to Tulsa, Oklahoma with the task of setting up a whole new operation on behalf of the Invernizzi crime family. Mafredi is aided in his criminal endeavors by pot dealer Bodhi (Martin Starr) and rogue-turned-ally Manny (Max Casella), and pursues a romance with Stacy (Andrea Savage), unaware that she is a former ATF agent.
The pilot episode of Tulsa King debuted on Paramount+ on November 13, 2022, and the ninth and final episode of the first season dropped on the platform on January 8, 2023.
Will Tulsa King return for Season 2?
Fans of Sheridan and Stallone will be thrilled to learn that a second season of Tulsa King has already been confirmed: Paramount+ renewed the series in November 2022, after just three episodes had streamed on its platform.
Who will be in the cast of Tulsa King Season 2?
Stallone will return as Manfredi in Season 2, and the rest of the main cast are expected to reprise their roles as well, including Martin Starr as Bodhi, Andrea Savage as Stacy, Max Casella as Manny, Jay Will as Tyson, Domenick Lombardozzi as “Chickie” Invernizzi, Vincent Piazza as Vince, Garrett Hedlund as Mitch, and Dana Delany as Margaret.
What will Season 2 of Tulsa King be about?
Plot details remain closely under wraps for now, but there is a good chance that Tulsa King will follow in Yellowstone‘s footsteps and end up launching a whole slate of interconnected spinoffs based either around the Oklahoma setting or the Invernizzi criminal empire.
“The huge success we’ve had with Tulsa King and Sylvester Stallone opens up possibilities with Taylor Sheridan, who consistently, his mind works in terms of universes and backstories, so I think there’s always a possibility that there’s more to that universe and more to that story,” said Paramount’s Tanya Giles.
When and where will Season 2 of Tulsa King be released?
No release date has been announced for the new season yet, but it has been confirmed that Tulsa King will stream exclusively on Paramount+.
