Ready for another round with the Stallone family? On the day the series's third episode was released, Paramount+ renewed The Family Stallone for a second season.

The renewal comes after a record-breaking debut for the docuseries last week in the United States, Canada, Latin America,  Australia, Brazil, the United Kingdom, and Italy, becoming the top original reality series premiere in Paramount+'s history. The series premiered on May 17 with its first two episodes. Releases in further international markets are to follow. No specific statistics have been released pertaining to the records broken.

Starring Oscar-nominated actor Sylvester Stallone, his wife Jennifer Flavin Stallone, and daughters Sophia, Sistine, and Scarlet, the reality series offers "a seat at the table of one of Hollywood’s most famous families" by showing how at home the actor can simply be "dad". Jennifer is described as a “savvy businesswoman and co-owner of the wellness brand Serious Skin Care.” Eldest Sophia doesn't want to become an actor like her father and instead hosts a podcast, Unwaxed, with Sistine. Sistine is also an actress and model with her first feature film in development, and Scarlet is moving into her own apartment while at college. She has wished of becoming an actress since she was young and is now appearing alongside Stallone in the Paramount+ series in which he stars, Tulsa King.

The Family Stallone is produced by MTV Entertainment Studios, with Benjamin Hurvitz and Nadim Amiry as executive producers with Julie Pizzi, Farnaz Farjam, and Jonathan Singer in the same role for Bunim-Murray Productions. Chris Ray and Jason Williams are co-executive producers for the series. The third episode was released this morning.
