Tulsa King’s Andrea Savage on Why Taylor Sheridan’s Shows are So Successful

In Paramamount ’s latest crime-drama series Tulsa King, Sylvester Stallone stars as Dwight “The General” Manfredi, a mafia capo who was recently released from 25 years in prison. After a quarter of a century behind bars, the world has changed, and Manfredi finds himself not only dealing with the difficulties of re-acclimating to society, but his family has also relocated him from the bustling territories of New York to Tulsa, Oklahoma. Looking to stake claim in the south, Stallone’s business is only made that much more problematic when ATF agent Stacy Beale (played by Andrea Savage) is sent on his trail. Like the crime boss, Beale finds herself in a fish-out-of-water situation, far from the New York Bureau and its Anti-Terror Squad, in favor of sniffing out Tulsa’s local militia groups.
