Release date and schedule

Paramount+ is releasing the fourth season of 'Tulsa King' on Friday, Oct. 16, 2026. The streamer's season preview lists that date as the premiere, and Forbes and Men's Journal both report the same day. [1] [2] [3]

Men's Journal says episodes typically appear on the service at 3 a.m. Eastern, which is midnight Pacific. Forbes describes that timing as expected, meaning the premiere goes live late Thursday on the West Coast and in the early hours of Friday on the East Coast. As of this report, the first episode had not yet been released. [2] [3]

After the premiere, new episodes are due every Friday, according to both outlets. Forbes notes this is a change from the Sunday debuts used for earlier seasons. Both list a 10-episode season ending with the finale on Dec. 18, 2026. [2] [3]

Forbes lists the episode titles and dates as follows: 'W.W.D.D.' (Oct. 16), 'Blind Rooster' (Oct. 23), 'Cease & Desist' (Oct. 30), 'Square One' (Nov. 6), 'Dinosaurs' (Nov. 13), 'Racket Club' (Nov. 20), 'Black Diamonds' (Nov. 27), 'Storm Front' (Dec. 4), 'Nerved Up' (Dec. 11) and 'Exit Interview' (Dec. 18). Forbes attributes the episode count to third-party reporting and says Paramount+ has confirmed only the Oct. 16 premiere date, so the later dates should be treated as reported rather than officially confirmed.

Cast and story

Sylvester Stallone returns as Dwight Manfredi, a New York mobster who built a criminal operation in Oklahoma after being sent to Tulsa. Paramount+ describes the new season as Dwight working to make his empire legitimate while protecting his crew, facing corrupt politicians, dangerous new enemies and a major personal loss. [1]

Gretchen Mol is the new series regular this season. Forbes lists her as Tulsa politician Amanda Clark. The returning ensemble includes Martin Starr, Jay Will, Garrett Hedlund, Dana Delany, Annabella Sciorra, Frank Grillo, Neal McDonough, James Russo and Kevin Pollak, per Forbes and Paramount+.

In the season trailer, Forbes reports, Dwight says: "Bad things are gonna happen to bad people." [3]

Background

Paramount+ counts 29 episodes across the first three seasons, so the new run would bring the series to 39 if all 10 episodes are released as listed. Stallone also serves as an executive producer on the series, according to the streamer. [1]

The season arrives as a Friday-night release, which means viewers can expect one new episode each week through mid-December. Details beyond the premiere date, including later episode dates, come from reporting that cites the streamer's schedule but has not been separately confirmed by Paramount+ in the sources reviewed.
