'Tulsa King' Isn't Dead Yet: Paramount+ Boss Teases Season 5 and Huge Plot Relocation

Taylor Sheridan might be dominating headlines with his massive prospective leap over to NBC, but his hit mob drama *Tulsa King* is definitely not wrapping up anytime soon. Fans of the Paramount+ flagship hit had grown anxious that the crime show could get sidelined during high-level executive shifts, but top network brass are making it clear that Dwight "The General" Manfredi still has plenty of turf left to conquer. Addressing the mob saga's future in an interview with *Deadline*, Paramount+ head of originals Jane Wiseman put lingering cancellation rumors to rest. She confirmed that an official release date announcement for *Tulsa King* season 4 is right around the corner. Wiseman teased that action icon Sylvester Stallone is in prime form for the upcoming batch of episodes, promising major plot twists that will completely shock viewers.

Is Tulsa King getting a season 5?

The fourth season is far from the finish line for the streaming hit. When questioned about the drama's long-term future beyond season 4, Wiseman expressed total confidence that the platform will stay in business with Sheridan for a very long time. She pointed to his massive current writing load—which includes *Landman* alongside expanding *Yellowstone* universe titles like *Dutton*, *Madison*, and *Frisco*—as proof that their working partnership remains as busy as ever. In fact, work on the chapter after next is already well underway behind studio doors. Reports from trade outlets indicate that a writers' room for *Tulsa King* season 5 has officially opened up. Assembling a writers' room this early demonstrates huge executive faith in Stallone’s star power and the show's sustained ratings draw.

Why is Tulsa King moving to New York?

When the series comes back to screens, audiences will also notice a stark physical transformation in the show's setting. After spending previous seasons shooting heavily throughout Atlanta, the entire production team is packing up shop and heading straight to New York. The major geographic overhaul comes down to a blend of creative narrative growth and smart studio economics. New York State has boosted its film tax incentive program twice over the last three years, creating an extremely attractive financial structure for high-budget TV productions. Those lucrative tax benefits, coupled with fresh storyline setups tailored for Stallone’s mobster character, made shifting production away from Georgia an obvious move for network executives.
