Sylvester Stallone’s character, Dwight “The General” Manfredi, is set for another thrilling season in “Tulsa King,” despite the numerous challenges he faces. The veteran actor, who is also an executive producer of the series, has assured fans that his character will survive the tribulations that are part of the show’s narrative. Stallone expressed that he believes Manfredi has paid his dues after spending over two decades in prison, and it’s time for him to enjoy the fruits of his labor without meeting a tragic end. “Every gangster goes out on a stretcher,” Stallone remarked, hoping for a different narrative arc for his character, who deserves to “revel” in his success.
As Season 3 unfolds, Manfredi is embroiled in conflicts as he strives to protect his distillery and safeguard his family against escalating threats. The logline for this season hints at growing danger, particularly from the Dunmires, a formidable old-money family in Tulsa that challenges the status quo. The series promises to deliver intense drama as Dwight works to preserve everything he has built.
Excitement for the series is heightened by the announcement of a fourth season ahead of Season 3’s premier, underscoring its popularity—Paramount+ reported that Season 2’s debut attracted 21.1 million global viewers, setting a record for the platform.
While the specifics of Season 4’s release date remain under wraps, Stallone recently confirmed via social media that filming is in full swing. Historically, previous seasons saw their premieres spaced approximately a year apart, suggesting that fans might expect the next installment by the end of 2026.
Changes behind the scenes are noteworthy as well. With Taylor Sheridan stepping back from Paramount, Terence Winter will take the helm as executive producer and head writer for Season 4, a position he has previously held. However, recent reports indicated that 26 crew members, including notable staff from various departments, would not return for the upcoming season. While this has raised eyebrows, insiders suggest the production is on track, with Scott Stone stepping in as a de facto showrunner amidst the transition.
Despite staffing changes, the enthusiasm surrounding “Tulsa King” remains high, especially with Stallone’s charismatic leadership and the ongoing saga of Manfredi’s life. As the cast grows, including the addition of Gretchen Mol in a prominent role, viewers can look forward to more riveting storytelling that captures the essence of the crime drama genre.
Fans can catch up on “Tulsa King” Season 3, which is currently available for streaming on Paramount+, with the gripping finale set to release soon. The series continues to thrive, promising a blend of action, drama, and complex character arcs that will keep audiences engaged.
