Hot on the heels of the explosive Season 2 finale ofTulsa Kingthis past weekend comes some amazing news for fans of theSylvester Stallonecrime drama. A new report reveals that Stallone is currently in the midst of closing a dealthat will see the series renewed for at least two more seasons. Stallone serves as an executive producer on the Taylor Sheridan-creation, which became an immediate hit forParamount+upon its debut in 2022.
Sources also tellDeadlinethat the possibility is therethatTulsa Kingcould stretch beyond Season 4, and also branch off to include spinoffs, much like some of Sheridan’s other creations. Because of his efforts, Stallone is poised to get a pay bump going into Season 3, which would be his third increase since the series began. He earned $750,000 per episode for Season 1, and $1.5 million per episode for Season 2. He’s clearly worth it, as the second season ofTulsa Kingdrewhuge numbers for the streaming service, garnering an average of 10 million global households,which was an 8% increase over Season 1.

Following the finale ofTulsa KingSeason 2, Stallone took to his Instagram account later in the week to spread the love, thanking the fans for helping to make the show what it’s become (seen above). He talked about the series' twists and turns, which didn’t see the epic confrontation between Stallone andfellow action star Frank Grillolike we all thought would happen, but instead featured Grillo’s character of Bill Bevilaqua aiding Dwight in getting rid of Chickie (Vincent Piazza) once and for all.Stallone also mentioned that work on Season 3 has already begun.
“Hello everyone. I don’t know about you, but that was a long season. A lot of ups and downs and sideways and all that, and I want to thank the audience for being part of the crime. You got an inside seat on how this crazy world of Tulsa works, and right now we’re digging into the next season.”
It makes us extremely happy to know thatTulsa Kingisn’t going anywhere anytime soon, and that we can expect at least two more seasons of what’s quickly become one of our favorite Stallone projects. Now the question following the Season 2 finale is:who the heck put that bag over his head?We can’t wait to find out.
