The streets of Tulsa have never looked meaner. With Season 3 of "Tulsa King" now streaming on Paramount+, Sylvester Stallone’s Dwight Manfredi faces more than just turf wars. He’s surrounded by chaos on all sides, from the FBI and old New York enemies to a new local threat who feels pulled from another century. The scale is bigger, the danger sharper, and the humor darker than ever before.

"It’s one of the darker ones," Stallone said. "But, you know, the humor comes through. It gets heavy." He admitted that the new season’s grind reflects a changing creative rhythm. "It’s very, very big because you have three forces coming at me. You got the FBI, you got the New York mob, and then you have this maniac from Tulsa who looks like he’s from a hundred years in the past. And then all the other intrigue about the elections and so on. And then we deal, oh, I forgot, the domestic terrorists. So we have a lot going on this year."
