The king returns: Tulsa King Season 4 gets a date

🎬 This story is part of our Tulsa King Series - every season, ranked and reviewed.

Paramount+ dropped the first teaser for Tulsa King Season 4 today, along with the date that matters most: October 16, 2026, with all ten episodes releasing weekly rather than dumped in one go.

Tulsa King — Season 4 Official Teaser

Why it matters for dads

The teaser is light on plot and heavy on tone - Dwight (Stallone) trying to legitimize his Tulsa empire while corrupt politicians, new enemies and “a significant personal loss” drag him back toward the street instincts he supposedly left in New York. Our Season 3 review called that season the strongest yet, and this teaser reads like a direct continuation of those stakes rather than a soft reset - good news if you’re already invested rather than starting cold.

The weekly rollout is the detail worth planning around: ten episodes over ten weeks means this is a legitimate Sunday-night-with-a-beer show again, not something to leave half-watched in a queue. New cast addition Gretchen Mol brings real pedigree from Boardwalk Empire, and given how Season 3 spent its runtime on earned character moments rather than just body counts, expect her role to matter beyond a single arc.

What’s next

October 16 is six weeks out. We’ll cover the premiere and review the season the same way we did Season 3 - as it airs, not all at once. If you haven’t caught up yet, now’s the window to do it - a Prime Video trial covers plenty of catch-up-worthy crime dramas and a family movie night or two while the clock runs down.

The Dadnology Take

A confirmed date, a weekly format and a genuinely strong cast addition - this is Paramount+ treating Tulsa King like the flagship it’s earned the right to be. The teaser withholds plot on purpose, which after three seasons of earning that trust is fine by us. October 16 is worth clearing a Friday night for.

When does Tulsa King Season 4 premiere?

October 16, 2026, exclusively on Paramount+, with all ten episodes releasing weekly.

Who's new in the Tulsa King Season 4 cast?

Gretchen Mol (Boardwalk Empire) joins the returning cast, which includes Sylvester Stallone, Martin Starr, Jay Will, Vincent Piazza, Annabella Sciorra, Chris Caldovino and McKenna Quigley Harrington.

What happens in Tulsa King Season 4?

Dwight tries to legitimize his empire while corrupt politicians, new enemies and a major personal loss push him back toward the street instincts he left in New York - turning Tulsa into a battleground.

New movies & shows coming in October 2026: Our top picks

October 2026 is a month of finales as much as premieres. Ted Lasso and Slow Horses both wrap their seasons within two weeks of each other, VisionQuest finally closes the WandaVision trilogy, and Tulsa King, Dexter and The Terminal List all come back within the same ten days. Add Gladiator joining Netflix, Halloween season across three platforms, the entire Bourne Collection landing on the first, and three real theatrical picks buried in a month otherwise wall-to-wall with horror, and there is a real reason to keep the TV on this month — and to leave the house for a few nights too.
