\ud83d\udd25 Quick Facts<\/h3>\n
    \n
  • Samuel L. Jackson<\/b> leads the first spinoff from Taylor Sheridan<\/b>‘s Tulsa King<\/b> universe on Paramount+<\/b><\/li>\n
  • Production begins in February 2026<\/b> with expected fall 2026 premiere<\/li>\n

    Samuel L. Jackson Brings Star Power to Taylor Sheridan’s Crime Universe<\/h2>\n

    NOLA King<\/b> represents a strategic expansion of the Tulsa King<\/b> franchise. Jackson<\/b>, one of Hollywood’s most prolific actors, takes the lead role in his first major television series as the central character driving the narrative. The series marks Paramount+<\/b>‘s confidence in extending creator Taylor Sheridan<\/b>‘s crime drama universe beyond the original hit show.<\/p>\n

    Sheridan<\/b>, known for creating smash franchises including Yellowstone<\/b> and Mayor of Kingstown<\/b>, continues to expand his television empire. The NOLA King<\/b> project reunites him with Jackson<\/b> and brings Sylvester Stallone<\/b> into the executive producer role, connecting the two shows directly through their production team.<\/p>\n

    From Tulsa King to New Orleans: Introducing Russell Lee Washington Jr.<\/h2>\n

    Russell Lee Washington Jr.<\/b> serves as the bridge between the original series and its new spinoff. The character appeared in multiple episodes of Tulsa King Season 3<\/b>, which concluded in November 2025, establishing his backstory for audiences before launching into his solo adventure. Jackson<\/b>‘s portrayal introduced fans to a skilled hitman with decades of experience in organized crime.<\/p>\n

    The character’s journey from Tulsa<\/b> back to New Orleans<\/b> after 40 years away sets the stage for the spinoff series. Lee<\/b> seeks to reconnect with family and rebuild his life in the Big Easy<\/b>, moving away from his mob enforcer roots. This character transformation creates rich dramatic potential for the new show.<\/p>\n

    Behind-the-Scenes Team Powers the New Series<\/h2>\n

    Dave Erickson<\/b>, who currently serves as showrunner for the original Tulsa King<\/b>, will write, executive produce, and run NOLA King<\/b>. This ensures consistency in storytelling quality and tone between the shows while expanding the universe. Erickson<\/b> also works on Sheridan<\/b>‘s Mayor of Kingstown<\/b>, bringing his expertise from multiple Sheridan projects to the spinoff.<\/p>\n

    The executive producer list includes Jackson<\/b> himself alongside Sheridan<\/b>, Stallone<\/b>, and David C. Glasser<\/b> from 101 Studios<\/b>. Additional producers include Ron Burkle<\/b>, David Hutkin<\/b>, Bob Yari<\/b>, Michael Friedman<\/b>, and Keith Cox<\/b>, assembling a powerhouse team committed to quality production.<\/p>\n

    What’s Next for the Tulsa King Universe and Jackson’s TV Debut?<\/h2>\n

    NOLA King<\/b> marks an exciting moment for Samuel L. Jackson<\/b>‘s television career. While he’s appeared in countless films and occasional TV roles, this represents his first lead position in a series. The show’s success could position Jackson<\/b> as a television star for future projects while expanding Paramount+<\/b>‘s crime drama offerings.<\/p>\n

    Fans of Tulsa King<\/b> can expect direct connections between the shows, though NOLA King<\/b> stands as its own narrative. The Taylor Sheridan<\/b> universe continues to grow with interconnected crime stories across different locations and characters, much like his Yellowstone<\/b> franchise model. As production gears up in early 2026, the entertainment industry watches closely to see whether Jackson<\/b>‘s star power and Sheridan<\/b>‘s storytelling will create another blockbuster hit for Paramount+<\/b>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
