Fall TV Preview 2025: Tulsa King
Sunday, Sept. 21 (Paramount+)
What’s a little federal detention when you’re Dwight “The General” Manfredi?
Despite Sylvester Stallone’s character’s getting ripped from his bed at the end of Season 2, “He’s at the top of his game right now. He has money. He has a life. He has everything.”
And that bit in the trailer where Kevin Pollak’s Agent Musso informs Dwight “I own you”?
“A phenomenal twist in the never-ending saga,” executive producer David Glasser says with a laugh. “Trouble always finds Dwight!”
Make that troubles, plural, including the “Tyrant of Tulsa” Jeremiah Dunmire, played by Robert Patrick.
“Dunmire is somebody who, much like Dwight, is an earner, is scary and believes that, with power and muscle, you win,” the EP says. “That, for Dwight, could be kryptonite.”
(He also teased a run-in with someone in Dunmire’s family and one of Dwight’s crew.)
Season 3 also will see the much-heralded introduction of Samuel L. Jackson as Russell Lee Washington Jr., a denizen of the criminal underworld who’ll eventually lead his own series, NOLA King.
“He and Dwight just chewing it up… is awesome,” Glasser adds.
BONUS SPOILER!:
Though Glasser speaks freely about members of Dwight’s crew like Grace (“you’ll see Grace mature in the show and become a real, stable part of the crew”) and Bigfoot (look for more of his “caring, gentle side” this season), he stays mum when we inquire about the beleaguered Armand.
“You’ll have to wait and see.” Make of that what you will!
