Sylvester Stallone has made a name for himself through many different types of roles. He dominated the 1990s through films likeRockyandRambo.In the years since, he has starred in films likeThe ExpendablesandEscape Plan,which have helped him keep his crown. Most recently, he has become the lead star of the critically acclaimed series,Tulsa King.
The show has been getting a lot of attention from all corners of Hollywood, and its second season has been highly anticipated. While there is a lot more to the show than who is a part of it, Taylor Sheridan’s role as director has caused a lot of speculation. Many fans are beginning to wonder if Stallone’s beloved series would join hands with another one of Sheridan’s classics,Yellowstone.
Recently, Stallone commented on exactly this, and fans may be quite disappointed with the answer he gave.
Sylvester Stallone’s Dwight Manfredi Meets John Dutton?
Sylvester Stallonerecently made an appearance at a roundtable (viaCinemaBlend) where he was asked quite an interesting question. Even thoughTulsa Kingis best known for starring theRockyactor, it is also directed by the legendary Taylor Sheridan. Another one of Sheridan’s famous series isYellowstone,which is regarded as one of the best series in the Western genre.
Knowing this, during the interview, Stallone was asked if the two shows would ever have a crossover. Yellowstone has already established a universe of its own, with multiple spin-off shows taking place in different time periods. It would not be too far-fetched if the filmmaker were to merge another one of his works with the ‘Sheridanverse’.
You mean I go over and I kill John Dutton? No problem. You got it. Take over the ranch, you know.

Sylvester Stallone then went on to talk about how Taylor Sheridan’s time inYellowstoneseems to be bleeding into his other works. The actor revealed how the new episodes ofTulsa Kingare set to have some inspiration from the world of cowboys.
No, I think we’re getting kind of close to it. You’ll see later on in the episodes I do get into the cowboy aspect of it, and some of these real tough guys. And it’s going to continue that way when I start to get involved with the oil baron types, and the really tough guys. They don’t mess around.
