The story so far
Tulsa King follows Dwight "The General" Manfredi (Stallone), a New York Mafia capo who comes out of prison after 25 years and is exiled by his family to Tulsa, Oklahoma. He builds a new crew and a growing set of businesses, and each season pits him against bigger enemies, from local bikers to rival families and powerful businessmen.
What Season 4 is about
Paramount+'s official description says Dwight "fights to legitimize his empire, and protect his crew as corrupt politicians, dangerous new enemies, and a crushing personal loss hit from every direction." Plot details beyond that haven't been released, so expect the premiere to resolve how Season 3 left things.
Cast
- Sylvester Stallone as Dwight Manfredi.
- Martin Starr as Bodhi, Jay Will as Tyson and Vincent Piazza as Vince, among the returning crew.
- Annabella Sciorra as Joanne, Dwight's sister.
- Gretchen Mol joins as a series regular in a role not yet detailed.
How to catch up
All three earlier seasons stream on Paramount+, around 30 episodes in total. The first season is the most self-contained, if you want to see whether the show is for you.
Our take
Tulsa King works best as a fish-out-of-water comedy-drama carried by Stallone's charm, and it has drawn a large audience for Paramount+. Winter's return as head writer is the most promising news for Season 4, since he shaped the show's tone in its first season.
