Saaaaaalutations! If you thought Paramount+ nabbing Sylvester Stallone to star in Tulsa King said something about what television had become, hear this out: Tulsa King has a New Orleans-set spinoff in development, aptly titled NOLA King , and it’s set to star Samuel L. Jackson. Exact details of NOLA King are under wraps, but Jackson’s character, Russell Lee Washington Jr., has been described as similar to Stallone’s Dwight Manfredi. The series would be set up by a recurring arc in Tulsa King ’s third season, currently in production in Oklahoma and Atlanta, which explains why Variety ’s telling didn’t call the single appearance they implied as a backdoor pilot. Jackson is expected to film his episodes in July, with production on NOLA King looking at a February start.

'Star Trek: Lower Decks' Season 4 Sets September Premiere; Trailer Released At SDCC
On top of the crossover with Strange New Worldspremiering five days early, Star Trek: Lower Deckshad its own portion of the Star Trek San Diego Comic-Con Hall Hpanel. The attending crew discussed the upcoming fourth season, revealing a September 7 premiere date on Paramount+ and releasing the season's trailer.
Two episodes will premiere on that date, kicking off the fourth season which will seeEnsigns Beckett Mariner, voiced by Tawny Newsome; Brad Boimler, voiced by Jack Quaid; Tendi, voiced by Noël Wells; and Rutherford, voiced by Eugene Cordero, Provisional Ensign T’Lyn voiced by Gabrielle Ruiz, and the crew of the less-important U.S.S. Cerritos keeping up with their Starfleet duties, avoiding malevolent computers, getting stuck in some caves, and encountering new and classic aliens along the way. This is while the big guys face an unknown force destroying starships and threatening galactic peace. A lot happens in the trailer but there's not much in the way of context.
The U.S.S. Cerritos’ bridge crew includes Captain Carol Freeman, voiced by Dawnn Lewis; Commander Jack Ransom, voiced by Jerry O’Connell; Lieutenant Shaxs, voiced by Fred Tatasciore; and Doctor T’Ana, voiced by Gillian Vigman. The teaser poster pays homage to Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home, as previous seasons have done with the preceding movies.
Star Trek: Lower Decks is produced by CBS Studios’ animation arm CBS Eye Animation Productions as well as Secret Hideout, the production company of the franchise's modern shepherd Alex Kurtzman; and Roddenberry Entertainment, the production company of the Roddenberry family, primarily Rod. Both serve as executive producers Trevor Roth and Katie Krentz of 219 Productions also serve in said role alongside creator and showrunner Mike McMahan.
Due to Paramount+ abandoningStar Trek: Prodigy, Lower Decks is the service's last active animated original Star Trek series. Chances are, if they hadn't abandoned Prodigy, it would've been able to show off plenty with how much of season 2 was already done when the dropping happened. The crossover onto Strange New Worlds, titled "Those Old Scientists", is now streaming.
