In this Tulsa King, Stallone is joined by Taylor Sheridan of Yellowstone fame. Sheridan’s western series has been both a critical and commercial success. The two discuss the art of writing, working with directors, and the challenges of being an actor in the modern era. The two also talk about the process of making the film, which ultimately went over budget and ended up not being a sequel to the original film. The two also discuss the difficult business of being an actor in general.
The Tulsa King is a weekly podcast series where Stallone and I discuss everything from his latest film to his role as Rocky Balboa. In each episode, we manage to dig into topics like introspective behavior, weight loss, testosterone replacement therapy, and the financial struggles that come with creating content in Hollywood without the backing of a studio.

What inspired the director to write the Tulsa King series?
The series is inspired by the real life of Stallone, his struggle, and his humbling experience. However, this is a fictional series. The director wanted to release a series that will make people laugh at the most unexpected moments and also get inspired by the outcomes of this series.
What was the thought process behind portraying Stallone as Rocky’s younger self?
The thought behind portraying Stallone as a younger Rocky is by creating the series in the same way Stallone was when he was filming Rocky. This is because if he does it as an older version of himself, then that could have been boring for the audience and would not have appealed to them. The director had an idea that if he portrays him as a younger version of himself, then this will be something new to the audience and they will be inspired by the thoughts and knowledge that Stallone gained while acting.
Was there an initial thought to have a different actor/personality play Rocky?
The director wanted to have an older version of Stallone than what he had in Rocky IV. He wanted him to be more like the character he played in Rambo III. This is because it would have been very boring if he kept playing the same character throughout his career and now with how much further he has progressed from his heyday years, he didn’t feel the need for another young version of himself.
What inspired the director to use such prominent cast members?
The actors were chosen for their acting and acting ability to complement Stallone in this role. The director also wanted to get a sense of realism from people who have a long history with Stallone and have seen him grow from being successful to struggling in his career. The director chose people he has worked with in the past that he can trust to portray his struggle and change from being a young box office hit to struggling at the box office.

Why do you think the director decided to use stock footage in this series?
The director wanted to have multiple takes for certain scenes because of budget constraints. This is because, even though these scenes would seem redundant with each take, it would show that Stallone is not taking this role lightly and takes it responsibly as a character inspired by himself.
