Paramount+ Sets Tulsa King Season 4 for Oct. 16, Drops Teaser

Restoring Terence Winter to head writer signals a creative reset for the series.

Overview

  • Paramount+ announced on Sept. 1 that Tulsa King Season 4 will premiere Friday, Oct. 16 and released a teaser trailer plus first-look photos, with new episodes to arrive weekly on the streamer.
  • Sylvester Stallone returns as Dwight Manfredi and the official synopsis frames the season around his effort to legitimize his empire while facing corrupt politicians, new enemies and a crushing personal loss.
  • Terence Winter is back as head writer and executive producer after earlier showrunner turnover, a staffing change that the coverage links to creative disagreements on the show’s direction.
  • Gretchen Mol joins Season 4 as a series regular playing Amanda Clark, and the season’s returning ensemble includes Martin Starr, Jay Will, Vincent Piazza, Annabella Sciorra, Frank Grillo, Neal McDonough and others.
  • Paramount is building Tulsa King into a franchise: a Samuel L. Jackson–led spinoff titled Frisco King finished production earlier this summer and reports in June said a writers’ room for a potential Season 5 had been staffed with a possible move of production to New York under discussion.
