Jackson’s ‘Frisco King’ needs extras to film in North Texas"},"content":{"rendered":"

The Paramount+ series began production in Fort Worth in late March. Previously titled\u00a0NOLA King, the show was originally supposed to be set and made in New Orleans, but is now a North Texas production.<\/p>\n

Frisco King will star Samuel L. Jackson as Russell Lee Washington Jr., a hitman who crossed paths with Sylvester\u00a0Stallone’s Tulsa King character Dwight Manfredi. Jackson appeared in the final two episodes of the show’s third season last year.<\/p>\n

Texas-based Legacy Casting recently posted several notices for filming in the region next month. Here’s what to know.<\/p>\n

Sheridan is writing every episode of\u00a0Frisco King himself.<\/p>\n

The show is expected to be another “fish out of water” story with Jackson’s character living and working in a city far from his New Orleans beginnings. This is the same premise for Tulsa King, which sees Stallone’s New York City character adjust to life in Tulsa, Oklahoma.<\/p>\n

Frisco King will film in Fort Worth, Plano, Dallas, Frisco, Keller, Denton and Southlake through July.<\/p>\n

In addition to Jackson and\u00a0Stallone, the show stars Kai Caster, Asa Germann, Lilah Pate and Savanna Gann.<\/p>\n

No release date has been set for the series.<\/p>\n
