‘Tulsa King’ Season 2 Blu-ray and DVD Available Today

Today, you can own Season 2 of Paramount+’s Tulsa King on Blu-ray and DVD! The series, from Taylor Sheridan, stars Sylvester Stallone as Dwight Manfredi.

The series was a huge hit with season 1 on the streaming platform, and it returned for season 2 for an equally thrilling season. Releasing today, the two-disc Blu-ray set consists of 5 episodes on disc one, with 5 episodes and special features on disc 2.

The Blu-ray and DVD set come with five featurettes, “The Boss Is Back”, “Mob Rule: Writing a Season of Crime”, “Who Said It”, “Meet the Rivals” and “Best in Crew”. These featurettes include special behind-the-scenes looks at the filming of the series, characters, interviews with many of the cast and crew behind the series, and more.

It’s a great in-depth look into the season and the people behind it and features some really interesting content that you won’t see anywhere else. I really appreciate that even though it’s a show on streaming, Paramount+ still made it available for fans everywhere to enjoy through Blu-ray and DVD releases. It’s a must-have for fans of the show so you can keep rewatching your favorite episodes of the season.

Here’s the synopsis for season 2:

The series follows New York mafia capo Dwight “The General” Manfredi (Sylvester Stallone), just after he is released from prison after 25 years and unceremoniously exiled by his boss to set up shop in Tulsa, Okla. Realizing that his mob family may not have his best interests in mind, Dwight slowly builds a “crew” from a group of unlikely characters to help him establish a new criminal empire in a place that to him might as well be another planet. 

In season two, Dwight (Stallone) and his crew continue to build up and defend their growing empire in Tulsa, but just as they get their bearings, they realize that they’re not the only ones who want to stake their claim. With looming threats from the Kansas City mob and a very powerful local businessman, Dwight struggles to keep his family and crew safe while keeping track of all his affairs. Plus, he still has unfinished business back in New York.

Season 2 really kicked up a notch, showcasing the talent of all of the cast in an exciting and thrilling way. After an incredible first season, Tulsa King came out swinging for season 2 and didn’t disappoint.

Tulsa King also features Martin Starr, Jay Will, Max Casella, Vincent Piazza, Tatiana Zappardino, Annabella Sciorra, Neal McDonough, Frank Grillo, Domenick Lombardozzi, Andrea Savage, Garrett Hedlund, and Dana Delany.

Unprecedented Real-World Footage Captured with Unparalleled Precision

What sets Expedition Odyssey apart is the stunning, real, live-shot video footage captured exclusively for this attraction. Using custom-designed camera rigs and groundbreaking underwater cinematography, an award-winning production team ventured to the Arctic’s most remote locations to film polar bears, orcas, humpback whales, and other iconic wildlife in their natural habitats.

This isn’t CGI or animation—every glacier, every wave, every incredible animal interaction is real. Guests will experience never-before-seen perspectives of Arctic wildlife, from the majesty of a humpback whale breaching at arm’s length to the raw intensity of a polar bear navigating the ice floes. The result is a level of immersion so vivid; it feels like being there in real life.

From Virtual to Reality: A Face-to-Face Encounter with Arctic Animals

The adventure doesn’t end when the ride does. Expedition Odyssey seamlessly transitions guests into a real-world encounter with live Arctic animals, including beluga whales and walruses.

For those looking to get even closer, SeaWorld offers exclusive behind-the-scenes experiences like the Beluga Whales Up-Close Tour, where guests can stand poolside with these incredible marine mammals, learning firsthand about their intelligence, behaviors, and conservation.

The ride will have a height requirement of 39 inches. For a limited time during the Spring Break Sale, guests can save up to 25% on Annual Passes. Visit SeaWorldOrlando.com to learn more and get ready to experience Expedition Odyssey!
