The 76-year-old Stallone has done it all in the world of acting, except starring in a scripted TV show. That changed with the release of Tulsa King, in which Sly plays a mob boss who attempts to turn the sleepy city of Tulsa into a criminal's paradise.

The show dropped its first episode on Paramount+ on the 13th of November. Many were worried that Stallone's years of starring in direct-to-video action movies would have tainted his star power, but he actually carries the entire show.

He's received praise for his on-screen charisma and fish-out-of-water humour as a man who has spent the last 25 years incarcerated. The show has been well-received by fans and critics alike with a second season already in the pipeline.

Few would have expected it, but Stallone still has what it takes to play a convincing leading man. It's been a joy to watch him week-to-week in Tulsa King and long may his time at the top continue.

If only Adrian was around to see this.
