Taylor Sheridan’s ‘The Sopranos’ Replacement Officially Gets “Incredible” Season 4 Update
Paramount+ has confirmed that "Tulsa King" is returning for a fourth season, with executive Jane Wiseman praising the new episodes and hinting the crime drama, starring Sylvester Stallone, will continue beyond that. The comments suggest the Taylor Sheridan-produced series, seen as filling the gap left by "The Sopranos", remains a priority for the streamer as it expands the franchise further.
Speaking to Deadline, Wiseman described Season 4 as "incredible" and said Stallone was "in great form", while teasing unspecified surprises for the cast. Gretchen Mol and Eden Lee join the show, with "Boardwalk Empire" and "The Sopranos" writer Terence Winter returning as head writer at Stallone's request; the new season will run for 10 episodes, though a premiere date has yet to be announced. The franchise is also growing with a spinoff, "Frisco King", starring Samuel L. Jackson, which began filming in March 2026 with Sheridan writing every episode.
