"It's tremendous to see the premiere resonate with a record number of viewers," said Jeff Grossman. Executive Vice President, Programming, Paramount+. "Stallone makes the role of Dwight Manfredi irresistibly compelling, and he is complemented by a phenomenal ensemble cast. We can't wait to share what his unlikely crew and their formidable adversaries are up to this season."

Glasser, CEO of 101 Studios. “This is one of those projects where you watch the idea become a reality and along the way you know that if all the pieces come together it's going to be a big success. Tulsa King is one of those projects and partnering with Sylvester Stallone, Taylor Sheridan, Terence Winter and all the cast and crew behind it has been a true blessing.”
