Thereโs been considerable hype surrounding Yellowstone creator Taylor Sheridanโs latest project starring the legendary Sylvester Stallone โ one of seven currently on the boilerplate, if you can believe that โ and now, months after dropping a brief 30-second teaser, Paramount has officially unveiled a considerably meatier Tulsa King trailer.
On the off-chance that opening paragraph alone didnโt get your freak juices flowing, itโs worth noting Sheridan has co-created the upcoming series with Terence Winter โ writer and executive producer for classic HBO mob drama The Sopranos, creator of the premium cable networkโs other hit mob drama Boardwalk Empire. Somewhere along the way, the talented Mr Winter also found time to adapt Jordan Belfortโs ludicrous life story into a screenplay for Martin Scorseseโs The Wolf of Wall Street.

According to Deadline, hereโs the Tulsa King synopsis:
Tulsa King follows New York mafia capo Dwight โThe Generalโ Manfredi (portrayed by Sylvester Stallone) who - as he's being released from prison after 25 years - is unceremoniously exiled by his boss to set up shop in Tulsa, Oklahoma and start his new life. Realizing that his mob family might not have his best interests in mind, Dwight slowly builds a new crew from a group of unlikely characters - one that prioritizes loyalty - to help him establish a new criminal empire in a place that to him might as well be another planet.
โI kept my mouth shut for 25 years,โ Stalloneโs Dwight Manfredi can be heard saying in the Tulsa King trailer.
โIโm expecting adequate compensation.โ
In addition to Sly, Tulsa King stars Domenick Lombardozzi as Charles โChickieโ Invernizzi, Max Casella as Armand Truisi, Vincent Piazza as Vince Antonacci, Dashiell Connery as Clint, Jeff Panzarella as Carmine, Chris Caldovino as Goodie Carangi, Jay Will as Tyson, Parker Cassady as Cowboy, Blakelyn Giles as Cooper โMilitary,โ and more.
Paramount has finally locked in the Tulsa King release date: November 13th, 2022 โ parallel to the XL-sized Yellowstone season 5, which premieres on the same day/evening with a blockbuster two-hour event. In line with the deal Taylor Sheridan inked a little while back, the upcoming series is also destined for Paramount+. Bonus: weโre receiving two episodes straight off the bat. How good.
