As a movie enthusiast who has seen his fair share of Sylvester Stallone’s work throughout the decades, I can confidently say that “Tulsa King” is a testament to the timeless charm and acting prowess of the man they call Sly. The second season’s record-breaking viewership on Paramount+ is no surprise; it’s like the world can’t get enough of Dwight Manfredi’s antics and the captivating storytelling that Terrence Winter and Taylor Sheridan bring to the table.
The highly acclaimed series “Tulsa King,” starring Sylvester Stallone, made its comeback on Paramount+ for its second season on September 15. Remarkably, this crime drama has been breaking records for the streaming service. According to a recent report by Deadline, the Season 2 premiere of “Tulsa King” garnered a staggering 2 million global views in its first day, setting a new record for the series. In just seven days, the episode managed to attract a total of 5.4 million households, an achievement that Chris McCarthy, Co-CEO and President of Paramount Global, attributes to two factors: Stallone’s star power and the skillful storytelling of showrunner Terrence Winter and creator Taylor Sheridan in creating a captivating world.
The show’s triumph clearly highlights the potent mix of Sylvester Stallone’s charisma and flair, complemented by Terry Winter’s exceptional storytelling skills, along with the distinctive universe creation that is uniquely Taylor Sheridan’s forte.
The series “Tulsa King” debuted on Paramount+ in 2022, and simultaneously aired the first two episodes on the Paramount Network through cable. As we approach the Season 2 premiere this month, the full Season 1 was previously aired on CBS during the summer. This undoubtedly played a role in the significant surge of its online presence, as its social media activity saw a remarkable growth of 934% compared to Season 1.
Jeff Grossman, Executive Vice President of Programming at Paramount+, remarks that such high viewer numbers demonstrate the appeal of Sylvester Stallone’s character, Dwight Manfredi, to audiences. He is eager for everyone to witness what’s coming up in the rest of the season.
It’s fantastic to witness such a large audience being captivated by the series premiere. Stallone brilliantly brings the character of Dwight Manfredi to life, and he’s backed by an exceptional group of actors. We can hardly wait to reveal more about his unconventional team and their powerful opponents this season.
Tulsa King Will Continue With Season 3
At the conclusion of Season 1 in Tulsa King, Manfredi was arrested on bribery charges, casting uncertainty over his entire operation and team. Fans had to wait anxiously to learn how he’d escape this predicament, but the start of Season 2 revealed that he successfully secured bail, with assistance from his daughter, Tina (played by Tatiana Zappardino), for the required sum.
Currently, Dwight encounters fresh hurdles as he strives to broaden his ventures, leading him inadvertently towards Bill Bevilaqua (Frank Grillo), the crime boss of the Bevilaqua clan stationed in Kansas City. To add fuel to the fire, Manfredi and their motley crew are also squarely targeted by Cal Thresher (Neal McDonough), a merciless tycoon with a tainted reputation, who additionally ranks among the top marijuana cultivators and dealers.
Everything mentioned will undoubtedly lead to a thrilling conclusion, as Grillo hinted to MovieWeb. But the excitement doesn’t end there! Sylvester Stallone himself announced on Instagram that preparations for Season 3 are underway, ensuring more seasons filled with Manfredi’s escapades. If viewership continues strongly, we might even get additional seasons, making Stallone and Tulsa King fans everywhere rejoice.
You can watch “Tulsa King” by streaming it on Paramount+, as fresh installments from Season 2 are released every Sunday, concluding the season on November 17.
