Paramount+ also released a new trailer for Tulsa King Season 2, showing Stallone’s main character, Dwight “The General” Manfredi, in court answering to an allegation of attempted bribery of a federal agent. After Dwight gets bailed out, the Invernizzi family capo and his team explore various business opportunities in Tulsa, but face opposition from Kansas-based mobster Bill Bevilaqua (Frank Grillo), who also has interests in taking over the titular Oklahoman city. The trailer teases some bloody battles and a showdown between Dwight and Bill for ultimate supremacy. Stallone recently teased some of Season 2’s plot points on Instagram, saying, “I’m not supposed to be doing this, but I didn’t get here by following the rules. I’m in court. It’s going to be an interesting scene in Tulsa King. I’m enjoying the process. It’s different. We have to travel about an hour and a half to an old courthouse where I have to appeal my case. I’m my own lawyer, so that could turn out good or bad.”

Created by Yellowstone brainchild Taylor Sheridan, Tulsa King chronicles Manfredi, who was sent to the eponymous city after spending 25 years in prison for murder. Tulsa King Season 2 also stars Andrea Savage, Jay Will, Garrett Hedlund, Max Casella, Martin Starr, Dana Delany, and Annabella Sciorra. Stallone confirmed that Season 2 production wrapped earlier this month, though filming reportedly endured its hiccups as the action legend was alleged to have given extras a warm time throughout the process.

The series boosted ratings for Paramount Network, including earning cable TV’s highest-rated series debut of that year. Tulsa King Season 1 is also the fourth-most-watched series created by Sheridan on Paramount+, attracting 3.36 billion viewing minutes.
For Stallone, Tulsa King is his first TV series as a leading man. His most recent film appearance was in the widely panned action film, Expend4bles.
