Jackson reprises his role here as seasoned New Orleans gangster Russell Lee Washington Jr.<\/p>\n<p>Washington Jr. heads to Frisco, Texas where he quickly realises the respectable suburbs are full of people with money, ambition, and probably a few things they\u2019d rather keep quiet. Beneath all those polished surfaces, he finds a hustler\u2019s paradise. <\/p>\n<p>Soon, he recruits an ambitious prot\u00e9g\u00e9, a loyal driver, and an increasingly oddball collection of associates to turn small scams into a much bigger business. Naturally, making money is easy. Keeping it, and staying alive, is another matter.<\/p>\n<p>Co-starring are Asa Germann (\u201cGen V\u201d), Kai Caster (\u201cYellowstone\u201d), Lilah Pate (\u201cOuter Banks\u201d), and Savanna Gann (\u201cEnglish Teacher\u201d) with Stallone guest-starring.  Jackson, Stallone, and Sheridan executive produce alongside David C. Glasser.<\/p>\n<p>Sheridan pens the series while Christina Alexandra Voros directs the pilot and three other episodes. Michael Friedman directs the other four episodes of the Paramount Television Studios and 101 Studios-produced show. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cFrisco King\u201d premieres December 18th on Paramount+ with two episodes and a weekly rollout to follow.<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Paramount+ Paramount+ has premiered the first trailer for \u201cFrisco King,\u201d the upcoming spin-off of the Sylvester Stallone-led and&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":930625,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[29],"tags":[64,63,142132,134,427],"class_list":["post-930624","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-tv","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-bigslider","tag-entertainment","tag-tv"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/930624","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=930624"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/930624\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/930625"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=930624"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=930624"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=930624"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
