Oct. 5 (UPI) — Paramount+ announced Monday it has ordered Season 5 of Sylvester Stallone’s mob drama, Tulsa King, but is moving the story from Oklahoma to New York City.
Production is now underway with Erik Palladino, Glenn Fleshler, Anthony Skordi and Nickola Shreli joining the ensemble.
The streaming service said Stallone’s daughter Scarlet will appear in the fifth season, but it did not mention the other beloved series regular cast members such as Martin Starr, Garrett Hedlund, Jay Will, Annabella Sciorra and Frank Grillo.
“We are thrilled to bring fans even more of this incredible series, and to be shooting the next season of Tulsa King in New York, where Dwight Manfredi’s story will continue to evolve,” Drew Brown, executive vice president of physical production for Paramount Television Studios, said in a statement Monday.
“We’re proud of the work we’ve done in Georgia, and it remains an important venue for us.”
