When a cinematic legend and a screen icon cross paths, you pay attention. Sylvester Stallone’s turn as “The General” in Tulsa King has already revitalized his career, and now the series is branching out with another heavyweight name. Get ready for a high-stakes expansion of Taylor Sheridan’s gritty universe, featuring none other than Samuel L. Jackson.
Taylor Sheridan’s Expanding Crime Universe
Taylor Sheridan isn’t slowing down. Fresh off the success of Yellowstone and its multiple spin-offs, Sheridan turned Stallone into a must-see TV star with Tulsa King. Here, Stallone’s retired mob enforcer, Dwight Manfredi, rebuilds his empire in Oklahoma after 25 years behind bars. As executive producer, Stallone helped craft a world where loyalty and betrayal collide—setting the stage for Sheridan’s next ambitious move.
NOLA King: A Spin-Off with Samuel L. Jackson
In a bold twist, Tulsa King will give rise to NOLA King, relocating the action to New Orleans. Overseen by Dave Erickson—veteran writer of Mayor of Kingstown and creator of Fear the Walking Dead—this series has already signed on Samuel L. Jackson as its star and executive producer. Rumor has it, Jackson’s character may first appear in Tulsa King Season 3, potentially pairing him with Stallone on screen for the very first time.
What’s Next for Tulsa King?
While fans eagerly await the return of Stallone’s Manfredi—alongside newcomers Robert Patrick and Beau Knapp—Tulsa King Season 3 is shooting now, aiming for a late-year release if all goes smoothly. Beyond that, Sheridan’s universe is set to grow ever larger: with NOLA King in development, viewers can expect new alliances, fresh betrayals, and the same tough-talking, no-nonsense style that made Tulsa King a breakout hit.
Whether you’re a die-hard Stallone fan or a devotee of Sheridan’s gritty storytelling, this crime saga promises to keep you glued to your screen. Don’t miss out on the ultimate collaboration between two legends.
