Scarlet Stallone continues expanding her filmography
The Stallone family is one that’s used to the spotlight thanks to Sylvester Stallone and his famous filmography, and the success of wife Jennifer Flavin as an entrepreneur. Together, they have three children: Sophia, Sistine, and Scarlet. At 20, Scarlet is following in her father’s footsteps in more ways than one, appearing in Stallone’s new series, Tulsa King.
Paramount+ streams Tulsa King, a crime drama series that premiered on November 13. It features Stallone as mafia capo Dwight “The General” Manfredi looking to establish a crime ring in Oklahoma. But he’s not the only Stallone in Tulsa.
Scarlet can also be seen in Tulsa King, right alongside dad Stallone. She plays Spencer, a barista at Triangle Coffee Roasters. In fact, in the show, she can be seen serving coffee to Dwight, her father’s character. She has a recurring role, enough that Spencer has an arc that sees her getting ready to quit work as a barista.
Stallone is ready to take her under his wing once again when Dwight offers Spencer the chance to work for him instead. She’s tasked with taking care of the new horse Pilot, who is very temperamental. Luckily, Spencer declares, “I love horses!”
“All my daughters are beautiful, and they all have their specialties,” boasts Stallone. “But Scarlet is the one who’s most adamant about pursuing the job of a wondering dramaturge.” Stallone assures Scarlet is “up for anything,” but the role of his character’s daughter comes with some dark content that’s too intense for the young actress.
However, Stallone is very proud of all his children and the unique brand of strength they have, noting, “Some people are diminished by the camera, some people are enhanced by it.” With regards to Scarlet and her potential as a growing star, “There’s a thing she has with the camera, even with still shots, that is unique.”
Tulsa King has already been renewed for a second season. That’s a solid start both for the show – especially in a climate when many series don’t make it past the first season – and for Stallone, as this represents his first leading role on a scripted television show.
