Taylor Sheridan is easily one of the busiest writers in the world of television. Just last year, the scribe aired three full seasons of TV shows, and to make things even more impressive, all of those shows had previous seasons aired within the last year or two. The first series to kick things off in September was Tulsa King, the gritty crime thriller show starring Sylvester Stallone. One month later, Sheridan aired the fourth season of Mayor of Kingstown, which stars his former Wind River collaborator Jeremy Renner. He closed out the year in 2026 with Landman, his biggest show since Yellowstone, which stars Billy Bob Thornton and Ali Larter. He’s also hard at work on other shows like the third season of Lioness, and he has two more Yellowstone offshoots confirmed to air next month.

Yellowstone has been the primary vehicle for spin-offs from Sheridan shows, but there’s another of his hit series that’s expanding soon. Last year, it was announced that Tulsa King would be receiving its first spin-off around Samuel L. Jackson’s Reese Lee Washington Jr., who first made his debut in Season 3. The show was set to be titled NOLA King, and Dan Erickson was attached to write the pilot. Now, however, things are moving in a different direction. News broke this evening that the planned Tulsa King spin-off around Samuel L. Jackson's Reese Lee Washington Jr. will no longer be set in New Orleans. The show will now be set in Frisco, Texas, and it has changed its name to Frisco King. Dave Erickson was initially attached to write the pilot for the show, but now Sheridan has taken it upon himself to pen all eight episodes.

When Does Samuel L. Jackson’s ‘Tulsa King’ Spin-Off Come Out?

Although it’s still unclear when Frisco King will be released, buried in the new report about the title change is the confirmation that the show will begin production next month in Fort Worth, Texas, where Sheridan films the lion’s share of his shows. As long as everything goes according to plan, the most likely window of release for Frisco King will likely be sometime early in 2027. Additional casting for the show and plot details are being kept under wraps.

Check out the first three seasons of Tulsa King on Paramount+ and stay tuned to Collider for more updates and coverage of Frisco King and Tulsa King Season 4.
