The highly anticipated second season of Paramount+’s Tulsa King is set to premiere on Sunday, September 15th, promising fans another thrilling dive into the underworld. Sylvester Stallone returns as Dwight Manfredi, a former mob boss who’s now carving out a new criminal empire in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
The series, helmed by executive producer Taylor Sheridan and written by Terence Winter, brings a fresh twist with director Craig Zisk joining the production team. In a teaser released recently, Stallone’s character declares dominion over Tulsa, asserting, “Tulsa belongs to me now. I don’t answer to any man.”
This glimpse sets the stage for a season filled with power struggles and territorial battles, as Dwight and his crew face off not just against rivals within Tulsa, but also contend with threats from the Kansas City mob and local business titans.

The stakes are high as Dwight juggles the complexities of safeguarding his family and allies while managing affairs that reach back to his roots in New York.
Behind the scenes, Tulsa King encountered its share of challenges, including initial conflicts that led to Terence Winter briefly stepping down as showrunner before returning to lead the writing team.
The production also faced controversy during filming, with reports of extras feeling mistreated on set, a situation that garnered attention alongside the show’s intense narrative.
The ensemble cast, including Martin Starr, Jay Will, Max Casella, and Vincent Piazza among others, promises to deliver compelling performances as they navigate the turbulent world of Dwight Manfredi’s burgeoning criminal domain.
With Sheridan’s knack for gritty storytelling and Stallone’s commanding presence, Tulsa King season two appears poised to captivate audiences with its blend of suspense, drama, and the relentless pursuit of power in America’s heartland.
As viewers gear up for another chapter in Dwight’s saga, the upcoming season holds the promise of further exploring his character’s evolution while introducing new adversaries and challenges that threaten to unravel everything he’s worked to build in Tulsa.
