Tulsa, OK, November 8, 2026 — The acclaimed actor Sylvester Stallone has reportedly expressed interest in casting Andrew Garfield for a villainous part in the television series ‘Tulsa King’. The specific details regarding the nature of the role or the potential storyline have not been disclosed.
As the star and executive producer of the Paramount+ series ‘Tulsa King’, Stallone’s creative vision plays a significant role in the show’s casting decisions.

The show has garnered attention for its blend of crime drama and dark humor.
Andrew Garfield, known for his versatile performances, including his recent critically acclaimed role in ‘Under the Banner of Heaven’ and his return as Spider-Man in ‘Spider-Man: No Way Home’, has demonstrated a wide range of acting capabilities.

However, at this stage, it remains unclear whether any formal discussions have taken place with Garfield or his representatives, or if this represents an early-stage consideration by Stallone. Further details regarding casting or development for ‘Tulsa King’ are anticipated to emerge as production progresses.
The series is created by Taylor Sheridan, who also serves as an executive producer alongside Stallone, David Glasser, Ron Burkle, and Bob Yari. The production is handled by MTV Entertainment Studios and 101 Studios.
