Actor Samuel L. Jackson is set to take the lead in a spinoff of Tulsa King, titled NOLA King, under the direction of Taylor Sheridan.
In an exciting turn of events for fans of Paramount+, a new spinoff of the hit series Tulsa King is in development. The upcoming series, tentatively called NOLA King, is set to delve into the world of organized crime in New Orleans, with legendary actor Samuel L. Jackson in talks to star.
Taylor Sheridan, the creator of Yellowstone and the mastermind behind Tulsa King, is spearheading the spinoff project. However, the original showrunner, Dave Erickson, has stepped down due to scheduling conflicts. Erickson is currently handling the third season of Tulsa King and Sheridan's Mayor of Kingstown. The search for a new showrunner is currently underway.
The New Orleans-based spinoff is expected to centre on the character of Russell Lee Washington Jr., played by Jackson, who has a rich history in organized crime. The series is not yet confirmed to air on Paramount+, but it shares the same streaming platform with Tulsa King.
Russell Lee Washington Jr.'s character is set to be introduced in multiple episodes of Tulsa King's third season, providing a seamless transition for viewers. As for the production timeline, it is subject to changes due to scheduling conflicts, and no official start date has been announced yet.
Lauren Hubbard, a freelance writer and Town & Country contributor, has covered various topics including entertainment, and she might provide updates on this intriguing project as more details emerge.
It is important to note that this spinoff is still in the development stage, and further details are yet to be announced. Terrence Winter hinted at the possibility of a New Orleans-based Tulsa King spinoff in the fall of 2024, but it was not officially confirmed until recently.
