with Creator and Oscar Nominee Taylor Sheridan as Executive Producer
Alongside Oscar Nominee and Emmy(R) Winner Terence Winter
Season one of the hit original Paramount+ series TULSA KING, starring Oscar(R) nominee Sylvester Stallone, will make its broadcast debut on the CBS Television Network this summer prior to season two launching this fall exclusively on Paramount+. This is the most recent example of Paramount Global's strategy to bring Paramount+ originals to new audiences on its linear platforms.
TULSA KING continues to be one of Paramount+'s most-watched series of all-time, ranking second only behind Sheridan's 1923. The premiere of the series in November 2022, coupled with NFL ON CBS, also set a new record at the time for subscriber growth in a single day since Paramount+'s launch, and was the most-watched series on the service while in-season.
The show is produced by MTV Entertainment Studios and 101 Studios.
TULSA KING follows New York mafia capo Dwight "The General" Manfredi (Stallone), just after he is released from prison after 25 years and unceremoniously exiled by his boss to set up shop in Tulsa, Okla. Realizing that his mob family may not have his best interests in mind, Dwight slowly builds a "crew" from a group of unlikely characters to help him establish a new criminal empire in a place that to him might as well be another planet. The first season of the series also stars Andrea Savage ("I'm Sorry"), Martin Starr ("Silicon Valley"), Max Casella ("The Tender Bar"), Domenick Lombardozzi ("The Irishman"), Vincent Piazza ("Boardwalk Empire"), Jay Will ("The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel"), A.C. Peterson ("Superman & Lois") with Garrett Hedlund ("The United States vs. Billie Holiday") and Dana Delany ("Body of Proof").
Creator and Oscar nominee Taylor Sheridan serves as executive producer alongside Oscar nominee and Emmy winner Terence Winter. Season one is also executive produced by Sylvester Stallone, David C. Glasser, Ron Burkle, Bob Yari, David Hutkin, Allen Coulter and Braden Aftergood.
In addition to TULSA KING, Sheridan's growing slate on Paramount+ includes 1883; MAYOR OF KINGSTOWN, which is currently in production on its third season; SPECIAL OPS: LIONESS; LAWMEN: BASS REEVES; the upcoming all-new series LANDMAN; and 1923, which will be going into production on its second season later this year.
CBS premiere day and times will be announced at a future date.
