Sylvester Stallone is taking on the role of his lifetime. The actor, 75, shared with Entertainment Tonight at the U.K. premiere of "Tulsa King" that he is excited to take on the role of Dwight "The General" Manfredi. "I’ve always wanted to play a gangster since...
I basically started off my career mugging everyone... but it never happened. I have my thoughts on why, but better late than never," he said. "Taylor Sheridan wrote an idea, a screenplay that was really good and Terence Winter, who wrote ‘Sopranos’and ‘Boardwalk Empire,’ they put it all together and what you have is East meets West."

He added that his character's next assignment is to run Tulsa in "a different world, different kind of people, and he starts to become indoctrinated into the Western sort of life.
So, it's a combination of the two. It’s a dark comedy, but also it can get rough." The drama series features Garett Hedlund, Jay Will, Domenick Lombardozzi and Max Casella.
