Tulsa King season 3: Release date and latest news
What's next for The General? ***MAJOR TULSA KING SEASON 2 SPOILERS AHEAD***
Major Tulsa King season 2 spoilers ahead.
The Tulsa King has weathered more than a few storms in his time – and there was yet another one brewing ahead of season 3.
Just when it looked like everything was finally falling into place, Sylvester Stallone's Dwight was kidnapped at gunpoint in the middle of the night in the final moments of the previous chapter, before he was then informed that he now worked for whoever said antagonists were.
But if history has taught us anything, our money's on The General – particularly given that the show was recently renewed for season 4, with sources also indicating to Deadline that Tulsa King could continue on past that, possibly reaching six seasons.
But we're getting ahead of ourselves...
For now, it's all eyes on season 3. Read on for everything you need to know, from when you can watch it, to who Sly is up against in the upcoming episodes.

And in huge news, Samuel L Jackson will also appear as new character Russell Lee Washington Jr, who is also set to star in Tulsa King spin-off NOLA King, which will air in 2026.
"NOLA King follows Russell Lee Washington Jr (Jackson), who, after befriending Dwight Manfredi (Sylvester Stallone) during a 10-year stint in federal prison, is sent to Tulsa by New York’s Renzetti crime family to take Dwight out once and for all," reads the official synopsis.
"Inspired by what Dwight created in Tulsa and impressed with the possibilities of second chances, Washington returns to New Orleans, the home he abandoned 40 years ago, to rekindle his relationship with his family, friends, and to take control of the city he left behind.
"In so doing, he incurs the wrath of his former employers in New York, and makes himself vulnerable to old NOLA foes, both criminal and cop."
Tulsa King season 3 plot: What will happen?
Season 2 saw most of Dwight's enemies, including Chickie and Jackie Ming, meet grisly ends.
Before Chickie was murdered by Bevilaqua in the season 2 finale, he was already on the back foot after Vince had "moved him aside" and brought the organisation under "new management".
New York wanted what Dwight had built in Oklahoma, and Chickie was ordered to travel there and order encourage Dwight to return with him to the Big Apple.
But when The General said no, Chickie adamantly refused to leave without him and turned to the man who would eventually end his life to hash out a plan.
The pair of them then paid Dwight a visit with the proposal of creating a franchise based on his own enterprise, which had recently expanded after The General took Cal's business from him.
But their conversation was cut short when Bevilaqua put a bullet in Chickie, which in turn earned him 50 per cent of Dwight's firm.
"You earned it," he added.
But despite Dwight's efforts to run a legitimate operation and keep the feds off his back, DC has requested everything Oklahoma law enforcement has on him, which would have been concern enough.
It's what happened next, however, which shifted the narrative landscape.
In the middle of the night, figures dressed in black and brandishing firearms abducted Dwight and declared that he now worked for them – teeing up an explosive third chapter.
The official logline is as follows: "In season 3, as Dwight's empire expands, so do his enemies – and the risks to his crew.
"Now, he faces his most dangerous adversaries in Tulsa yet: the Dunmires, a powerful old-money family that doesn’t play by old-world rules, forcing Dwight to fight for everything he’s built and protect his family."
