Sylvester Stallone Shares Update on Taylor Sheridan’s Crime Drama Return

by

As a cinephile with a lifetime of movie-watching under my belt, I must say that the news about Tulsa King getting renewed for not one, but two more seasons is nothing short of exhilarating! I’ve always had a soft spot for Sylvester Stallone and his gritty characters, and Dwight Manfredi is no exception. The fact that he’ll be receiving a pay raise, albeit an undisclosed amount, only adds to my excitement.

It appears that Sylvester Stallone has announced on social media that production on Season 3 of “Tulsa King” has started. Previously, in November, insiders informed Deadline that the Paramount+ crime drama was being renewed for not just one, but two additional seasons. Now, it seems that Stallone’s Instagram post confirms at least one more season for his tough character, Dwight Manfredi. Here’s what he wrote on his account:

Well, it is time to get ready for NEXT SEASON ON TULSA KING… Go Team Go!

It’s been revealed that Sylvester Stallone is in line for a substantial pay increase, although the exact figure remains undisclosed. Interestingly, during Season 1 and Season 2, he pocketed $750,000 and $1.5 million per episode respectively. Given this trend, it’s plausible that Stallone’s recent social media post hints at the commencement of production for another season of the popular streaming series, Tulsa King. Notably, according to a report by Deadline, Season 2 of Tulsa King on Paramount+ became one of their most successful originals domestically, reaching an astounding 13.6 million homes globally.

Among the original shows that have achieved greater domestic success, apart from yours truly, are the spin-off of “Yellowstone,” titled “1923,” and the debut season of “Tulsa King.” Notably, Season 2 of the Paramount+ show saw a significant surge in online buzz about its success. This report indicates that it garnered a staggering 159 million views and 6.1 million social media interactions. Compared to Season 1, these numbers show an impressive rise of 894% for views and 553% more engagement on social media platforms.

Another ‘Tulsa King’ Star Teases Season 3

As a passionate cinephile, I’m thrilled to share the news that Sylvester Stallone’s confirmation of the renewal for “Tulsa King” aligns with earlier reports about its continued success, especially after the impressive run of its second season. However, it’s not just Sly who’s hinting at the series’ future; Frank Grillo, our charismatic antagonist Bill Bevilaqua in this Paramount+ crime dramedy, has been subtly dropping hints about a potential third season even before the Season 2 finale. In an interview with Collider, he mentioned the third season, sparking anticipation among fans like me!

Working alongside Sylvester Stallone in ‘Tulsa King’ has been a long-held dream of mine, as his career inspired me to pursue acting. Our friendship preceded this project, and being able to collaborate with him on nine-page scenes, receiving his feedback, and even asking for my opinion – it feels like I’ve come full circle in my journey. It’s an incredible experience, and it seems we’re set to continue this adventure in Season 3.

In simple terms, you can now stream or binge-watch Seasons 1 and 2 of the hit series Tulsa King, created by Taylor Sheridan, on Paramount +. With the dramatic events that unfolded for character Dwight “The General” Manfredi in the season finale on November 17 (no spoilers given here), it’s possible that Season 2’s impressive viewership numbers could be surpassed.

It appears quite reasonable to guess that the dedicated fan base will watch as the upcoming episodes continue the series of clever misadventures for the New Yorker-turned-Oklahoma gangster. As the show’s second season boasts a perfect 100% score on the Tomatometer, based on five reviews on Rotten Tomatoes at this moment, it remains to be seen how many more viewers will join the Tulsa King fanbase in the future.
