Tulsa King Season 4 Returns Oct. 16 on Paramount+

Screen Rant reports the Taylor Sheridan crime drama, blending Western and mafia elements, debuts next week with Sylvester Stallone.

Taylor Sheridan's Tulsa King, described by Screen Rant as a cross between Yellowstone and The Godfather, returns for its fourth season on Paramount+ on Friday, October 16 at 3 a.m. ET. The show stars Sylvester Stallone as Dwight Manfredi, a New York mafioso building his own crime empire in Oklahoma.

Screen Rant notes that Paramount has not yet confirmed the full release schedule beyond the premiere, but season 3 followed a weekly release format, with 10 episodes dropping one per week. Season 4 is expected to follow the same pattern, with episodes likely airing Fridays through mid-December.

"The temperature is rising for Dwight and his entire gang in Tulsa King season 4."

Season 4's story will reportedly follow Dwight and his crew as they try to legitimize their criminal empire. A "crushing personal loss" for Dwight may pull him back to New York, and Tulsa itself is teased as "turning into a battleground." Villains include Cal Thresher (Neal McDonough), now governor of Oklahoma, and Bill Bevilaqua (Frank Grillo), who holds a grudge over his arrest.

Screen Rant reports that Paramount has already renewed Tulsa King for a fifth season, moving production from Georgia to New York for story reasons. A spinoff, Frisco King, starring Samuel L. Jackson, has also been confirmed and has finished filming. Jackson reprises his season 3 role as Russell Lee Washington Jr., moving to Texas to build his own criminal enterprise.
