Robert Patrick and Beau Knapp Join Taylor Sheridan's TULSA KING Season 3 as Series Regulars
Taylor Sheridan’s Tulsa King was recently officially renewed for a third season and we’ve now learned that Robert Patrick and Beau Knapp are stepping in as new series regulars.
Production on the Sylvester Stallone-led crime drama is now underway in Atlanta and Oklahoma, and things are only going to get more intense.
Patrick will play Jeremiah Dunmire, who described as “a powerful, forceful man with deep pockets in the liquor business.” Meanwhile, Knapp steps in as his son, Cole Dunmire, “a trust fund country boy with crazy in his eyes.” If that pairing sounds volatile, that’s probably the point.
Tulsa King follows Stallone’s Dwight “The General” Manfredi, a New York mafia capo fresh out of a 25-year prison sentence, who finds himself unexpectedly exiled by his crime family and shipped off to Tulsa, Oklahoma, to start a new operation. Out of place but far from out of ideas, Dwight begins rebuilding his criminal empire with a ragtag crew of unlikely allies.
Season 2 brought even more heat as Dwight’s crew clashed with new enemies on hostile turf. Adding Patrick and Knapp into the mix hints at a new wave of opposition or uneasy alliances that could change the game.
Patrick, best known as the liquid metal T-1000 in Terminator 2: Judgment Day, is fresh off roles in 1923, Peacemaker, The Night Agent, and Reacher.
Knapp, who just wrapped SEAL Team, recently starred in The Bikeriders and has made his mark in Seven Seconds, The Good Lord Bird, and The Lost Symbol. He’s also appeared across the Law & Order universe and the Road House remake.
The cast already includes Martin Starr, Jay Will, Annabella Sciorra, Neal McDonough, Frank Grillo, Garrett Hedlund, and Dana Delany.
The show has been a big hit for Paramount+. The Season 2 premiere raked in 21.1 million global viewers, setting a streaming record for the platform. Alongside Sheridan’s other hits Landman and Lioness, Tulsa King helped push Paramount+ into Nielsen’s Top 10 U.S. streaming originals for Q4, which is a feat usually dominated by Netflix.
