Sylvester Stallone, the Hollywood Icon
You might recognize Sylvester Stallone from blockbuster hits like ‘Rocky’, ‘Rambo’, and ‘The Expendables’. Of course, how can we forget his amazing escape in ‘Escape Plan’? Recently, he’s taken on a new role in one of the most anticipated series, ‘Tulsa King’. As the lead star, Dwight “The General” Manfredi, he’s making headlines once again.
Not too long ago, rumors started to fly. Would there be a mashup between ‘Tulsa King’ and another hit series, ‘Yellowstone’? And if it were, what a spectacle it would be! Both shows share the same director, Taylor Sheridan, which made the rumors seem plausible.
Stallone’s Fun Response Ignites and Extinguishes Rumors
In a recent roundtable chat, Stallone got the question we’ve all been dying to know. Could his character in ‘Tulsa King’ meet Kevin Costner’s character, John Dutton, from ‘Yellowstone’? Stallone is known to have a sense of humor. He started to fan the flames of these rumors by pretending to gear up his ‘Tulsa King’ character to face off the ‘Yellowstone’ character. But don’t get your hopes too high. He quickly poured cold water on this hot chatter. A crossover between ‘Tulsa King’ and ‘Yellowstone’? Very unlikely, says Stallone.
Hints of Yellowstone Influence in Tulsa King
Now here’s something to spice things up. Despite ruling out any crossover, Stallone dropped a few hints. It seems ‘Tulsa King’ may borrow a little something from ‘Yellowstone’. Some inspirations, perhaps. Stallone talked about introducing elements from the Wild West, like cowboys and oil barons.
What does that mean? While ‘Tulsa King’ may have a world of its own, it might begin to echo ‘Yellowstone’. It’s like they might share the same soul but will look different on the outside. But does that mean we can expect to see ‘Tulsa King’s’ Manfredi kicking back at John Dutton’s guest house? Nah, not likely.
Possible Impact of Western Themes on Tulsa King
Woah! Western themes in ‘Tulsa King’? That sure could make things more colorful! By introducing rugged cowboys and shrewd oil tycoons, the plot could thicken. We can expect more twists and deeper character explorations. Of course, some fans are wary. They love ‘Tulsa King’ for its unique style and they don’t want it to lose its charm. But Sheridan is a pro at handling different styles. So let’s not fret about it!
Mark Your Calendars for September 5th, 2024
Curious about where these hints would lead? Well, we’ve got to wait for the second season of ‘Tulsa King’. In this upcoming season, we might see some ‘Yellowstone’-inspired dynamics. It’s all set to premiere on September 5th, 2024 on Paramount+. Though Stallone has nixed the crossover, there’s still graphic hints that ‘Yellowstone’ and ‘Tulsa King’ could affect each other. It seems they’ll be doing their own thing but could borrow a bit from each other. It keeps the buzz alive, don’t you think? Let’s just wait and see where this all leads.
