Taylor Sheridan is now an in-demand filmmaker who has created his own TV empire at Paramount. He is the creator of the network’s flagship show Yellowstone and its spinoffs 1883 and 1923. He also created other successful shows for the network including Tulsa King, Mayor of Kingstown, and Special Ops: Lioness.
In addition to being the creator of Yellowstone, Taylor Sheridan also starred as Travis Wheatley in the show
Before Yellowstone, he directed the neo-Western crime drama Wind River starring Jeremy Renner and Elizabeth Olsen. While Yellowstone has a much bigger scope and narrative than the film, Sheridan found making the film far more challenging than the series as he had no financial support and limited time to make it.

Taylor Sheridan began his career as an actor but shot to fame as a writer with TV shows such as Yellowstone and Tulsa King, and movies such as Sicario and Wind River. Sheridan’s works are known for their explorations of rural American life and often see a clash between traditional American life and modernity.
One of the primary examples of this school of thought is the Kevin Costner starrer Yellowstone. The show has garnered a dedicated fan following and constantly has a massive viewership, despite not impressing critics. Sheridan reportedly mentioned that he knows that critics hate his show as there is ‘no plot’ in it and is designed to be hated.

The revised offer has been presented to the Paramount board as Skydance tries to gain the approval of company shareholders.
There may not be a need for an investor revolt at Paramount Global to try and stop the company from merging with Skydance Media. Multiple shareholders have raised questions about a plan for Skydance to pay Paramount's controlling shareholder $2 billion for her stake in the company, which caused concern because of its potential to dilute the shares of every other Paramount stakeholder. But a Monday report from Deadline indicates that Skydance has revised its offer for Paramount to make the deal easier to stomach for Paramount’s shareholders not named Redstone.

From the Oscar-nominated movie Sicario (2015) to Hell Or High Water (2016) to Wind River (2017), he wrote the screenplay for each, and even directed the last.

Jeremy Renner is back in business as Mike McLusky, returning as the "mayor" of the prison town known as Kingstown.
After his terrible accident, there were fears that he'd ever fill Mike's shoes again. Those fears were unfounded.
The explosive trailer for the upcoming third season proves he's nimble on his feet but even more potent with his words.
Mayor of Kingstown is a high-adrenaline series about a small town in the business of America’s prison system.

After more than fifty years of a successful acting career, Sylvester Stallone still got it all — but sometimes he himself doubts it.
Despite a considerable age of 77 years, the legendary actor doesn’t seem to have a problem with keeping up with his younger colleagues, but one of his recent projects gave him a weird feeling about the whole situation.
2022 marked Stallone’s first leading role on television thanks to his crime drama show Tulsa King. The storyline follows Dwight "The General" Manfredi, a Mafia leader who is back on track after being released from prison and immediately sent to Tulsa, Oklahoma, where he tries to revive his criminal career by forming a new organization.
Feeling somewhat out of place after 25 years of isolation, Dwight instead creates The Manfredi Crime Family.
Though Stallone definitely looks good even against his younger co-stars, one scene actually kind of hurt his feelings. Talking to The Hollywood Reporter recently,...

Sylvester Stallone’s underdog story and meteoric rise as a Hollywood star have long been talked about over the years. The actor had to make a lot of sacrifices to make sure that Hollywood took notice of him and his script for Rocky. With no acting godfather by his side, his struggle paid off greatly, as Rocky has become his signature role and franchise that he is popularly known for.
Sylvester Stallone wrote and played the lead in 1976’s Rocky
In his long and illustrious career, Stallone has never played a gangster and was never approached by filmmakers for it. That changed when Taylor Sheridan came to him for Tulsa King. The two shared many things and were friends long before the project came to fruition. Stallone found many similarities between Sheridan’s career and his and this formed a deep connection between them.

Sylvester Stallone is one of the finest men that Hollywood has to offer, and we are not just talking about his stellar acting skills. The man has always had a “broody and dangerous” look going for him that many would find attractive, even today. Clearly, age is not a construct when it comes to crushing on him. However, it did make Sylvester Stallone feel a little depressed once.

Sylvester Stallone has been a part of many television shows, but Paramount+’s Tulsa King marked his very first TV lead role. The actor plays the role of Dwight Manfredi, a Mafia boss who just served 25 years in prison. Quiet on brand, isn’t it?

If Skydance and Paramount exit their exclusive negotiating period without a deal, Sony and Apollo could be ready to step up.
Will there someday be a “Succession“-style show dedicated to the sale process of Paramount Global? The amount of twists and turns the saga has taken in the past few months could make for compelling television, and now a new wrinkle has emerged. The New York Times reports that Sony Pictures Entertainment is discussing the possibility of a joint bid to acquire Paramount with Apollo Global Management, which has unsuccessfully attempted to purchase Paramount multiple times in the past.
One possible deal structure would see Apollo serve as minority partner, with Sony in majority control of Paramount. Apollo lodged a $27 billion bid for Paramount but was rebuffed as Paramount entered into exclusive negotiations with Skydance Media. The two companies cannot make an official offer to Paramount until it exits...

Action star Sylvester Stallone is all set to return for the second season of the Paramount+ TV show Tulsa King. The crime drama was created by Yellowstone’s Taylor Sheridan and its first season was one of the most-watched shows in the network’s history. Stallone recently took to Instagram to promote the upcoming second season.
While Stallone expressed his excitement for the show’s sophomore season, he seemed to have avoided an ongoing controversy. Several casting agencies reportedly pulled out of the show after news of alleged ‘toxic’ behavior on set from the Rocky star and the show’s director came out. The accusations have been denied by director Craig Zisk, who was present on set.

Sylvester Stallone took to social media this week to promote the forthcoming second season of his Paramount + series, Tulsa King, without addressing the accusations that he and one of the show’s unnamed directors were allegedly responsible for a “toxic” on-set environment for its hired background actors, who were reportedly mocked by both for their appearances.
On Monday, Stallone did not address the accusations in an Instagram post, where the 1970s cinema icon appears dressed in a lavender suit as his character, Dwight “The General” Manfredi. Instead, he notified fans that he is on set shooting the second season, which comes from Yellowstone creator Taylor Sheridan.
“Ringing the bell on location for Tulsa King part two,” Stallone captioned the on-set image.

Legendary action star Sylvester Stallone’s Tusla King has received remarkable accolades with its season 1 run. However, the lead star has recently found himself amid controversy after a background actor accused him of passing comments, making the set unfavorable for the background artist.

Tennessee native, Thomas Mooneyham drove to the set of the show to film his scene in a bar alongside Stallone but it came as an utter regret for Mooneyham, as Stallone, as he claimed, passed derogatory comments on the Bg actor on the set of the Paramount+ show.

But the guild offered “to support with guidance” if background actors in Atlanta need it, and said “there is no room on any set for disparaging comments to background actors or any performers” on Wednesday.
On Monday, accusations began circulation on social media that over the weekend on the “Tulsa King” set, Stallone mocked background actors on set, calling them “fat” and “ugly” and asking for “pretty young girls” to be brought to the set.
Later that day, Catrett Locke Casting shared it had quit the project.

One of the best results of the #MeToo and woke movements is the fact that the on-set climates on many shows and movies changed. It is known that a filming set is a very special and closed-off space and that many things can happen there, most of which forever remain hidden from the public eye. People haven’t been encouraged to talk about the on-set issues, which would lead to a toxic atmosphere. But, after these important social movements, the climate has been changing and people less often tolerate toxic behavior during filming. One such story seemingly happened on the set of the Sylvester Stallone-led series Tulsa King, as the actor was accused of inappropriate behavior towards background actors.

Season One of the original Paramount+ series Tulsa King, starring Sylvester Stallone, made its broadcast debut on CBS prior to Season Two launching exclusively on Paramount+
The series is one of the streamer’s most-watched series of all-time, ranking second only behind Taylor Sheridan’s 1923.
Tulsa King follows New York mafia capo Dwight “The General” Manfredi (Sylvester Stallone), just after he is released from prison after 25 years and unceremoniously exiled by his boss to set up shop in Tulsa, Okla. Realizing that his mob family may not have his best interests in mind, Dwight slowly builds a “crew” from a group of unlikely characters, to help him establish a new criminal empire in a place that to him might as well be another planet.
The first season of the series also stars Andrea Savage, Martin Starr, Max Casella, Domenick Lombardozzi, Vincent Piazza, Jay Will, A.C. Peterson with Garrett Hedlund and Dana Delany.

Sylvester Stallone has been accused of creating a “toxic environment” on the Atlanta set of the Paramount+ series “Tulsa King” by making disparaging comments about background actors, among other allegations.
Rose Locke, a casting director on “Tulsa King,” is said to have quit the series. A representative for Stallone declined to comment.
“Tulsa King,” which was created by “Yellowstone” superstar showrunner Taylor Sheridan, is currently filming its second season in Atlanta. Season 1 of “Tulsa King,” which premiered in November 2022, was filmed in Oklahoma where the show is set. Paramount+ is said to be aware of the allegations.
The claims against Stallone that sparked discussion among background actors were ampified on social media by TV writer Julie Benson (“Star Trek: Prodigy”). On April 8, Benson posted two screenshots on X and wrote: “Got this disturbing news from my Atlanta friend who’s background on Tulsa King this wk. Casting agent quit because she was so disgusted.

‘Tulsa King’ Casting Company Quits After Sylvester Stallone Accused Of Disparaging Background Actors
An Atlanta-based casting company has left Tulsa King in the wake of allegations that Sylvester Stallone and one of the directors had disparaged some background actors who were working on the Paramount+ drama.
Rose Locke Casting of Atlanta was hired to find actors ages 18 and over for the second season of the Taylor Sheridan series. But apparently the working conditions on Tulsa King soon became fodder on a private Facebook page for Atlanta-based background actors; Stallone and an unnamed director were accused of calling some of the extras “ugly,” “tub of lard” and “fat guy with cane.” The recipient of the latter comment apparently said later that it “hurt his soul” to hear himself described that way on set.
Allegedly, Stallone then suggested that production bring in “pretty young girls to be around me,” instead.
Rose Locke Casting announced on its Facebook page Sunday that it was leaving the show.

The MCU alum boards the Sylvester Stallone-led crime drama as a series regular, playing Bill Bevilaqua, a Kansas City mobster interested in Tulsa.
