A new behind-the-scenes look at Tulsa King is giving fans an early glimpse into production, as Sylvester Stallone shared a candid moment from set that signals work on Season 4 is moving forward.

In the image posted to his official Facebook page, Stallone is seated in what appears to be a dimly lit production space, dressed sharply in a patterned blazer and black turtleneck, fully in character as Dwight Manfredi.

Behind him sits another man, positioned closely enough to resemble a mirror image — a detail Stallone leaned into with his caption: “Me and my brother on this set of Tulsa King… You can tell he’s very impressed with my performance!”

Around them, cameras, lighting rigs, and crew members can be seen preparing for a shoot, reinforcing that filming is already underway.

The post arrives as Tulsa King continues to build momentum following its official Season 4 renewal by Paramount+. Production reportedly began in late November 2025, with Stallone confirmed to return as the lead.

While an exact premiere date hasn’t been announced, the series has historically debuted in the fall, suggesting Season 4’s release is expected sometime in late 2026.

Stallone’s update offers a rare, informal look at a show that has become one of Paramount+’s biggest streaming successes. Per an official release from Paramount+, the series ranked as the platform’s top global original in 2024, with Season 2’s premiere episode drawing more than 21 million viewers. It also generated significant social engagement.

The update comes after a turbulent lead-up to Season 4 production. Ahead of filming, 26 crew members — including Stallone’s longtime stunt double Freddie Poole — were unexpectedly replaced just weeks before shooting began.

The changes affected multiple departments across the production, even as insiders described the turnover as standard practice within the industry.

The shakeup also unfolded alongside broader restructuring at Paramount, which recently announced significant layoffs across its workforce.

Despite those developments, Stallone’s latest post suggests that Tulsa King remains firmly on track.
