Tulsa King Season 3: Everything We Know About Stallone’s Return to Crime, Chaos, and Tulsa

Tulsa ain’t big enough for Dwight Manfredi—and Season 3 of Tulsa King is about to prove it.

After two seasons of building his unconventional crime empire in Oklahoma, Sylvester Stallone’s mob boss is back for more action, more betrayal, and way more trouble. Paramount+ has officially renewed the hit Taylor Sheridan series, with Season 3 now in production. And if early chatter is anything to go by, things are about to get even wilder.

So, what’s next for The General? Here’s everything you need to know about Tulsa King Season 3.

Confirmed: Tulsa King Season 3 Is a Go

Let’s start with the good news: Tulsa King Season 3 is officially confirmed and filming is underway. Not only that, but thanks to a sweet deal with Stallone, the show is practically locked in through Season 4. No surprise here—this gritty dramedy has been one of the most-watched originals on Paramount+.

Sylvester Stallone, Tulsa King

The show is now filming in both Atlanta and Oklahoma, and according to Collider, Martin Starr (Bodhi) has already read the first two scripts and teased that the new season will be “a lot of fun” with plenty of action and unresolved plot threads from Season 2.

Behind-the-Scenes Shakeups: A New Showrunner Enters the Ring

Season 3 comes with some leadership changes. Dave Erickson (Fear the Walking Dead, Mayor of Kingstown) steps in as showrunner, taking over from Terence Winter and Craig Zisk. Erickson is part of Taylor Sheridan’s inner circle, so fans can rest easy—this ship is still being steered by the same creative mafia.

Winter, meanwhile, is off developing a series about notorious mobster Sammy “The Bull” Gravano for FX. (More mob stories? We’re listening.)

When Will Tulsa King Season 3 Premiere?

No official release date yet, but based on past patterns, here’s a good guess:

• Season 2 filmed April–August 2024 and premiered in September.

• Season 3 filming began March 2025.

So, if all goes smoothly, expect a Fall 2025 premiere, likely between September and October.

Returning Cast: Who’s Back in the Game

While the full Season 3 cast list hasn’t been revealed, we expect most of the key players to return, including:

• Sylvester Stallone as Dwight “The General” Manfredi

• Max Casella as Armand Truisi

• Martin Starr as Bodhi

• Jay Will as Tyson Mitchell

• Garrett Hedlund as Mitch Keller

• Dana Delany as Margaret Deveraux

• Frank Grillo as Bill Bevilaqua

• Annabella Sciorra as Joanne Manfredi

• Tatiana Zappardino as Tina Manfredi

• McKenna Quigley Harrington as Grace

Plus, expect new enemies, new allies, and maybe even some surprise cameos as Dwight’s empire expands.

Plot: Dwight’s Not Done Yet

Season 2 ended with two massive twists:

1. Bill Bevilaqua kills Chickie Invernizzi, then cuts a deal with Dwight to “franchise” his Tulsa crime model to other cities.

2. Dwight gets arrested by the feds—and an unknown agent tells him: “You work for us now.”

Season 3 will likely dive deep into this new “work for us” wrinkle. Is Dwight going undercover? Being blackmailed? Or forced into becoming an informant?

Meanwhile, that crime franchising idea sets up the possibility of multiple cities, multiple crews, and even more complex turf wars.

Is a Tulsa King Spin-Off Coming?

Yes… maybe.

Terence Winter previously confirmed that a spin-off set in New Orleans is in early talks. The Season 2 finale heavily teased the idea of expanding Dwight’s empire—so don’t be surprised if we see a New Orleans King on the horizon. Think jazz, gators, and mobsters in Mardi Gras masks.

What Makes Tulsa King So Addictive?

It’s The Sopranos meets Justified, with a Stallone-sized swagger. The show’s success lies in blending gritty mob drama with fish-out-of-water comedy—and giving Sly his best role in years. He’s not just cracking skulls—he’s also navigating therapy sessions, TikTok trends, and surprise FBI raids.

And that mix? Yeah, it just works.

Where to Watch Tulsa King

Seasons 1 and 2 of Tulsa King are streaming now on Paramount+. Binge it before Season 3 drops—trust us, you’ll want to be caught up when Dwight starts expanding the brand.

Final Thoughts: The King Is Far from Done

With a new showrunner, deeper mob connections, and the feds breathing down his neck, Dwight Manfredi’s journey is just getting started. Season 3 promises to raise the stakes, test loyalties, and maybe even kickstart a criminal empire that stretches far beyond Tulsa.

Get ready. This king’s still got plenty of fight left.
