Tulsa King season 2 is set to premiere on September 15, 2024, on Paramount+. The series stars Sylvester Stallone as Dwight "The General" Manfredi in his first outing in a scripted television series, with his acting career previously focusing on feature films such as the Rocky and Rambo franchises.
At the start of Tulsa King, Dwight was a mobster who had been released from prison after serving a 25-year sentence for murder. Despite refusing to testify against his bosses in the Invernizzi family, they refused to let him back into New York and instead told him to establish a base of operations in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
Realizing that he couldn't depend on the goodwill of his bosses anymore, Dwight set up a criminal empire of his own in Tulsa practically from scratch and ended the first season arrested on bribery charges.

In the Tulsa King season 2 trailer, Dwight's underling Bodhi, who runs a marijuana dispensary, tells him about wind turbines. Based on Dwight's response when asked what he knows about them, he may take some time to understand their full potential.

Tulsa King has so far been well-received
The first season of Tulsa King received a Fresh 79% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, CNN's Brian Lowry considered the series to be a mix of "odd attributes", and praised how it showed the passage of time.
