Alright, Tulsa King fans, let's talk about Season 3! After that wild Season 2 finale, we're all itching to know what's next for Dwight 'The General' Manfredi and his Tulsa crew. Sylvester Stallone's crime drama has us hooked, and with production already rolling, the buzz is real. So, when's it dropping? Who's back? And what kind of chaos is coming? Here's the latest scoop on Tulsa King Season 3, packed with rumors, cast news, and some guesses about what's next. Release Date Rumors: When Will Tulsa King Season 3 Premiere?
No official release date yet, but the rumor mill's churning. Paramount+ hasn't spilled the beans, but we've got some clues. Filming kicked off in March 2025, with sets popping up in Atlanta and Oklahoma, per posts on the Tulsa King X account and local news outlets. Season 2 filmed from April to August 2024 and hit Paramount+ in September 2024, so we're thinking Season 3 could land around September or October 2025. Some folks are betting on early 2026 if post-production takes longer, but Paramount+ seems to want to keep the momentum going after Season 2's massive viewership.
Remember the long wait between Seasons 1 and 2? That was partly because of the 2023 Hollywood strikes. With no major delays this time, fingers crossed we're looking at a quicker turnaround. Stay glued to Paramount+ or their socials for a trailer or official date drop. Cast Updates: Who's Returning and Who's New?
Sylvester Stallone's back as Dwight Manfredi, the slick New York mobster running Tulsa's underworld. The guy's still got it, and he's the heart of the show. Most of the Season 2 crew is expected to return, keeping the vibe tight: Garrett Hedlund as Mitch, the bar owner and Dwight's ride-or-die.
Martin Starr as Bodhi, the chill weed shop guy who's smarter than he looks.
Jay Will as Tyson, Dwight's loyal driver turned family.
Max Casella as Armand, the nervous but lovable mob guy.
Dana Delany as Margaret, Dwight's rancher girlfriend with big influence.
Annabella Sciorra as Joanne, Dwight's sister, who's stepping up her game.
Tatiana Zappardino as Tina, Dwight's daughter, still navigating their rocky bond.
Frank Grillo as Bill Bevilaqua, the Kansas City mobster with a love-hate thing for Dwight.
Vincent Piazza as Vince Antonacci, now running the Invernizzi family in New York.
Neal McDonough as Cal Thresher, who might be Oklahoma's new governor, stirring up trouble.
Season 3's also bringing some big names to the table, and it's got us pumped: Samuel L. Jackson plays Russell Lee Washington Jr., a New York enforcer sent to take Dwight down but maybe inspired by him instead. Word is, he's also getting a NOLA King spinoff in New Orleans.
Robert Patrick as Jeremiah Dunmire, a liquor tycoon who's about to mess with Dwight's weed business.
Beau Knapp as Cole Dunmire, Jeremiah's unhinged son.
Bella Heathcote as Cleo Montague, a distillery heiress who could be a friend or foe.
James Russo as Quite Ray Renzetti, a New York mob boss adding East Coast drama.
Kevin Pollak as Special Agent Musso, an FBI guy with a personal vendetta against Dwight.
Bad news? We're saying goodbye to a couple of folks. Chickie (Domenick Lombardozzi) got whacked in Season 2, so he's out. Stacy (Andrea Savage) was shipped off to Alaska, so she's probably not back either. These new faces, though, are gonna keep things spicy. What to Expect in Tulsa King Season 3
That Season 2 ending? Oof. Dwight and Margaret were chilling in bed when masked gunmen stormed in, nabbed Dwight, and hit him with a cryptic 'You work for us now.' Who are 'they'? That's the million-dollar question. Some fans think it's a government crew, maybe tied to that FBI file swap in D.C. from the finale. With Kevin Pollak's FBI agent joining the cast, Dwight's probably got some legal heat coming his way.
Season 2 saw Dwight trying to go legit with his weed business and making shaky deals with rivals like Bill and Cal. But Season 3's gonna test that. The new players—especially Jeremiah Dunmire and his son—sound like they're ready to throw wrenches in Dwight's plans. Plus, with Chickie gone, New York's mob scene is a mess, and Stallone's recent X post about filming in NYC hints Dwight might head back east. Samuel L. Jackson's character could be a wildcard, maybe teaming up with Dwight or double-crossing him.
Dave Erickson's now running the show solo, taking over from Terence Winter and Craig Zisk. If you've seen his work, you know he's got a knack for gritty, character-driven stories. Expect more of that Tulsa King mix: intense drama, a few laughs, and Dwight being a total boss while dodging bullets (literal and figurative). Oh, and with Cal possibly becoming governor, there's a whole new power game in Tulsa.

‘The View' co-host warns Colbert cancellation could lead to the ‘dismantling of our Constitution'

'The View' co-host Sunny Hostin warned on Tuesday that CBS canceling Stephen Colbert's 'Late Show' could be the start of the 'dismantling of our Constitution.' CBS announced Thursday 'The Late Show' will end in May at the end of its broadcast season. Though CBS and parent company Paramount said the choice to cancel the series was 'purely a financial decision,' and the show was reportedly losing the network $40 million a year, many liberal commentators claim it was for political reasons. Just days before the cancellation, Colbert slammed Paramount's recent settlement with President Donald Trump over his lawsuit against '60 Minutes' as a 'big fat bribe' ahead of a pending merger between Paramount and Skydance Media. Hostin and her fellow co-hosts were also skeptical of CBS' explanation for canceling Colbert's show based on the 'timing' of the announcement. She pointed out that if politics were involved, then the fabric of democracy could be in jeopardy. 6 Hostin and her fellow co-hosts were also skeptical of CBS' explanation for canceling Colbert's show based on the 'timing' of the announcement. 6 Just days before the cancellation, Colbert slammed Paramount's recent settlement with President Donald Trump over his lawsuit against '60 Minutes.' The Late Show with Stephen Colbert 'My concern is, if it is political, then everyone should be concerned. People on the right should be concerned. People on the left should be concerned. Because it's very clear that, if it is political, this is the dismantling of our democracy. This is the dismantling of our Constitution. Right?' Hostin said to the cheering of the studio audience. She continued, 'The First Amendment is the First Amendment for a reason and that is freedom of the press, freedom of speech. Freedom to speak truth to power. If that is taken away, if the comedians are being attacked, then that means our Constitution is being dismantled… That means the very rubric of our democracy is being dismantled. And I think every single person should be really, really concerned about it.' 6 She continued, 'The First Amendment is the First Amendment for a reason and that is freedom of the press, freedom of speech. 6 Protestors holding signs that read 'Colbert Stays! Trump must go!' and include images of Stephen Colbert, Joe Biden, and Donald Trump. 6 If that is taken away, if the comedians are being attacked, then that means our Constitution is being dismantled. Hostin praised Sens. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., and Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., for speaking up on the issue and demanding answers. Several other high-profile Democrats also spoke out against canceling Colbert, whose show was openly favorable to their party while hostile to Republicans. 'We must protect our Constitution and we must protect our democracy! This is bigger than just the cancellation of a television show!' Hostin exclaimed. Her co-host Joy Behar blamed Trump for Colbert's cancellation and warned 'all bets are off' if comedians are taken down. 6 Her co-host Joy Behar blamed Trump for Colbert's cancellation and warned 'all bets are off' if comedians are taken down.

Colbert fired back against Trump on his show Monday night after the president celebrated his show ending on Truth Social, writing, 'I absolutely love that Colbert got fired. His talent was even less than his ratings. 'How dare you, sir?' Colbert responded. 'Would an untalented man be able to compose the following satirical witticism? Go f— yourself.'

Venice Strikes Back: Alberto Barbera on His Powerhouse 2025 Festival Lineup

After getting upstaged by Cannes at this year's Oscars — when Sean Baker's Palme d'Or winner Anora took best picture over Brady Corbet's Lido champ The Brutalist — Venice has come roaring back. Venice's 2025 lineup, with its blend of prestige auteurs, big-name debuts and politically charged provocations, reaffirms the Lido as the premiere launchpad for award-season hopefuls. Highlights this year include Julia Roberts in Luca Guadagnino's After the Hunt, Dwayne Johnson in Benny Safdie's The Smashing Machine and a triple threat from Netflix: Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein starring Jacob Elordi, Noah Baumbach's Jay Kelly with George Clooney and Kathryn Bigelow's A House of Dynamite with Idris Elba and Rebecca Ferguson. More from The Hollywood Reporter Jussie Smollett Speaks in Netflix Doc 'The Truth About Jussie Smollett?' Paramount Execs Tell Staff That Africa Offices and Channels May Close Amid Strategy Review (Exclusive) Disability Advocate, AGC Studios Boss, 'Poor Things' Producer, Berlinale Boss Set for Locarno Pro Add in new features from Yorgos Lanthimos, Jim Jarmusch, Park Chan-wook, François Ozon, Paolo Sorrentino, Mona Fastvold, Gus van Sant, Julian Schnabel, Mamoru Hosoda and Laszlo Nemes, and the political heft of Kaouther Ben Hania's Gaza drama The Voice of Hind Rajab and Olivier Assayas' The Wizard of the Kremlin [with Jude Law as Vladimir Putin], and you have, on paper, one of the best Venice festivals in years. That's saying something. Shortly after unveiling this year's program, Venice artistic director Alberto Barbera spoke to The Hollywood Reporter about the fierce but friendly rivalry between the major festivals, the challenge of programming two-to-three-hour epics and why politics are back on screen in a big way. This is going to sound like I'm a broken record, because I say it every year, but you have another phenomenal lineup. We in the press always pit the big festivals — Cannes, Venice, Toronto — against one another, but how much is competition, a desire to beat the other big festivals, a drive for you? I'm a good friend of [Cannes festival director] Thierry [Fremaux] and [Toronto Film Festival CEO] Cameron [Bailey]. We're colleagues. We meet each other at each other's festivals. I've got a wonderful relationship with them. But of course, it is a competition. That's just a fact. There is competition between festivals, and each of us tries to get the best films from what the market gives us. We are lucky in that we're maybe in a better position, coming at the beginning of the new season, where Cannes is at the end of the old one. And we're a week, 10 days, ahead of Toronto, so we are often lucky to get a lot of world premieres. I know Toronto tries to get as many world premieres as possible, and they don't always succeed in competing with us on certain films. But this competition is a way to push you to do your best, to get the best out of the submitted films. How do you measure success for a festival lineup? The first element is the way the film is accepted during the festival, the response of both the critics and the audience to the film. That's the first moment when you realize if you made a good choice or if you were wrong. Because when you invite one film, it means you give up the chance to invite another. And it always happens that this or the other film doesn't meet the expectations that were created when we announced the lineup. That first moment when the film screens is when I realize if I did a good job or not. Then, of course, if the film travels to other festivals or gets awards, if it goes to or wins the Oscars, which happens a lot, that helps to confirm and establish the position of the festival, of our position in the international calendar of festivals, and gives us the chance the following year to get access to the most interesting and important films of the season. In your presentation, you suggested you would have liked to have put Luca Guadagnino's in competition. Was it Amazon MGM that wanted it to run out of competition? That was a decision by Amazon MGM. From the beginning, when they showed the film to us, they told us 'We don't want to be in competition. This is a film we believe in. It's our candidate for the Oscars. It doesn't need to be in competition.' So I accepted that. I respect the decision of producers. Most of the time. star Julia Roberts will make her Venice debut this year, as will Dwayne Johnson, star of Benny Safdie's competition film . Any advice for the Lido newbies on navigating the Venice red carpet? I'm sure they know how to behave. They are great professionals, both of them. And they are delivering exceptional performances in the two films that we'll see. Both Julia Roberts and Dwayne Johnson are really outstanding. So I'm very happy to have them in Venice. As you know, we have a wonderful new audience, very warm, very gentle. I think the experience here is easier for talents than at other festivals — that's what they tell me. Partially due to the success that you've had over the years, more and more people are coming to Venice. How much pressure is that putting on the festival's infrastructure? A lot. Well, not on the festival itself, because we have a lot of seats, a lot of theaters, to accommodate everybody. The pressure is put on the infrastructure outside the festival, on the hotels, the restaurants, and so on. Venice is one of the most touristic places in the world, with a lot of events at the end of August and the beginning of September. There are a lot of people coming in, also for other events. It's difficult to find hotels, and it's becoming more and more expensive to attend. This is the main issue we have. We don't have enough hotels on the Lido, actually, just one five-star hotel, The Excelsior. The good news is that they are going to renovate the Grand Hotel Des Bains. It will take 4-5 years, but it should come back as beautiful as it was in the past. So I'm quite confident and optimistic about that, because it's from people from Dubai [Abu Dhabi's Eagle Hills is backing the $230 million renovation] who have a lot of money. So it should work, right? I've written a few times who struggle with the cost of going to Venice and also with access to the talent that they need to justify coming. Is there anything that you or the festival can do to address this problem? It's extremely difficult to do something regarding the hotels, the cost of the rooms, the restaurants and so on. The infrastructure is just not there. I know there is an issue for some independent journalists to get access to interviews with stars and so on, but again, this is out of our control. It's the decision of the production team or the press agent for each film. I try to convince them to be more open and available, but they often only stay 48 hours, 72 hours in Venice, because of the cost of staying here, so it's difficult to meet all the requests they get from journalists. It's a major problem, but I don't know what we can do to solve it. You also mentioned in your presentation how submitted films are getting longer and longer. How big a problem is that when it comes to programming? It's a big issue because we usually have four [competition] films a day, in the main theater, two in the afternoon and two in the evening. If every film is two hours long or more, it means the last film won't start until very late in the evening. It's a huge problem for everybody. From tomorrow, I'll start working on the screening schedule, and I'll see how things look, but I'm a little worried. We'll find a solution, of course, but it's not easy. This is a trend that started one to two years ago and has become a really major trend. Most of the films are more than two hours long, and many are two hours and 30 minutes long or longer. It's a problem. Venice has never avoided political films, but current events seem at the center of a lot of movies in this year's lineup, from Kathryn Bigelow's to Kaouther Ben Hania's to Olivier Assayas' . Why did you think it was important to program these movies? They are all very strong films in of themselves. Not only very emotional but excellent films dealing with contemporary issues. Most of the films this year are dealing with contemporary problems. Whether it's the use of atomic weapons [A House of Dynamite], to the horrors of the wars in Ukraine or Gaza, or looking at dictatorships in many countries in the world. It's the comeback of the cinema of reality, and I think it's important that the festival is open to the contemporary world and not closed off inside the universe of films and cinema, that cinema of dreams. There will still be a lot of entertaining films, spectacular films, at the festival, but most of the films are strongly connected to contemporary problems and issues. Some are very strong and emotional. I get emotional talking about The Voice of Hind Rajab. I was so impressed when I watched that film. Every time I think about it, I get emotional again. I think it will be one of the films that will get the most intense response from everybody, from the press and from the audience, for obvious reasons, not only political reasons but for emotional, human reasons. Netflix is also back in force this year, after . Yes, they couldn't come last year because they didn't have any films to offer, but they have three very strong films this year, from Kathryn Bigelow, from Noah Baumbach and from Guillermo de Toro. We worried if it was a good idea to have three films from Netflix in the main competition, but they are all so good, they all deserve to be in there. Do you ever worry that your streak at Venice will end, that this could be your last good year? Every time. After every festival, I tell myself, I won't be able to do as strong a lineup next year. And then we are lucky enough to get access to the most interesting films of the season. And this is the case again. For this year at least.
