Tulsa King Season 2: Confirmation, Cast & Everything We Know

Summary Tulsa King's success has led to anticipation for Season 2, which is expected to arrive in fall 2024.

The show's creative shakeup hints at incomplete aspects of Season 2, likely causing production delays.

The season 1 cliffhanger leaves key questions unanswered, and the original cast is set to return for season 2.

Yellowstone creator Taylor Sheridan has found even more success with his latest cowboy/mafia drama, Tulsa King. The show centers around a mobster who is exiled to Tulsa, Oklahoma after finishing a lengthy prison sentence. After assembling a rag-tag crew of misfits, Dwight (Sylvester Stallone) seeks to build his own family and take over Tulsa. With the show's success, there is much anticipation around the second season, which is further compounded by Paramount releasing very limited Tulsa King season 2 updates.

Although it seemed like Dwight and company would have a happy ending, the finale ended on a cliffhanger. Dwight was finally caught by the ATF/FBI. With the last scene of Tulsa King season 1 showing Dwight's daughter Tina (Tatiana Zappardino) reliving her traumatic childhood by watching her father leave in handcuffs again, the ending left many questions unanswered. However, some good news is that Paramount+'s Tulsa King has been renewed for a second season. Here are all the latest Tulsa King season 2 updates audiences might've missed.

Tulsa King Season 2: Latest News

The Release Month Is Revealed

Though it was previously announced that the show would arrive in fall of 2024, the latest news sees Tulsa King season 2 receive a more specific release month. In a post on his official Instagram account, series star Sylvester Stallone dropped a BTS video in which he revealed that the sophomore season is coming back in early September 2024. The post has since been amended to read early fall and the change could have merely been a simple typo. It could have also been Stallone accidentally revealing privileged information before he was supposed to.

Tulsa King Season 2 Cast

New Villains To Challenge Dwight's Empire

Close

With the show's success and most of the Tulsa King cast surviving the final season 1 confrontation, it is assumed all the key players will reprise their roles in the next season. This includes Sylvester Stallone as Dwight "The General" Manfredi, who has been the biggest attraction of the Taylor Sheridan vehicle. The only change in the cast thus far is a positive one, as Annabella Sciorra and Tatiana Zappardino have been promoted to series regulars. Sciorra plays Dwight's sister, Joanne, while Tatiana Zappardino plays his estranged daughter, Tina Manfredi-Gieger.

New cast members include Frank Grillo who will apparently play the new villain of season 2. The MCU veteran is also known for his role in the Purge franchise and he will be playing Kansas City mobster Bill Bevilaqua who is trying to establish new territory in Tulsa. Another new tough for Dwight to scrap with in season 2 is Neil McDonough's Cal Thresher, a businessman in town who doesn't take kindly to Dwight's budding empire.

Tulsa King Season 2 Story Detail

Season 1 Ended On A Massive Cliffhanger

Dwight and his crew were able to defeat a rival biker gang led by a local kingpin named Waltrip (Ritchie Coster), but he still has a few enemies lurking about. Stacy Beale, Dwight's love interest throughout the first season, betrayed him and had him arrested during the finale. According to Stallone in a post on Instagram, Dwight is still dealing with his legal troubles in season 2. Stacy isn't the only one gunning for Dwight, as he still has Chickie, the new boss of the Invernizzi family, plotting his revenge after being threatened by Dwight in the finale.

The Questions Tulsa King Season 2 Can Answer

Dwight's Story Is Far From Over After Season 1

Tulsa King season 2 has a lot of big questions to ask following the end of the first season. The biggest one is obviously Dwight's fate after he is arrested in the Tulsa King's season 1 finale. That also brings his relationship with Stacy into question. She was willing to bend the rules and put her career on the line for him only to betray him by turning him in. Will they rekindle their romance or are they enemies now?

There is also the question of who will step in as the new villain in season 2. Caolan Waltrip was an appropriately detestable and ruthless foe for Dwight to go up against, but in the end, Dwight and the others made short work of him. Chickie seems likely to step up as the next major threat after killing his own father to take control of the family business. Though Dwight was able to back him down, it seems unlikely he will forget and will come for everything Dwight built in Tulsa King season 2.
