'Tulsa King' star Sylvester Stallone moves on from 'toxic' set allegations as new season approaches

Sylvester Stallone is business as usual as he prepares for the second season of "Tulsa King" to premiere. The "Rocky" star allegedly created a "toxic" set while filming the show.

Sylvester Stallone has seemingly moved on from "toxic" set allegations as he prepares for the launch of "Tulsa King" season two.

Stallone took to Instagram to share a behind-the-scenes photo on location for the comedy-drama.

"Ringing the Bell on location for TULSA KING part two…," the actor captioned the photo.

The post comes shortly after the "Rocky" star was accused of creating a "toxic environment" while filming season two, allegedly leading to the resignation of a casting director. Fox News Digital has reached out to a representative for Stallone and Paramount.

Paramount was investigating claims Stallone and director Craig Zisk mocked extras on the set of "Tulsa King," a source close to the show previously confirmed to Fox News Digital.

Paramount "recently" became aware of a social media post floating around, and prides itself on maintaining a "fair and respectful workplace," the show insider said at the time.

Stallone allegedly said, "What the F--- is happening with these F---ing ugly background," according to an anonymous Facebook post.

The post added, "He and the director proceeded to call certain people terrible names and laughed at them." And then, "Sly said, ‘Bring in pretty young girls to be around me.'"

The allegations that Stallone mocked extras on the set of "Tulsa King" were first brought to light on X by Julie Benson. The "Star Trek: Prodigy" writer has since deleted her post.

"Got this disturbing news from my Atlanta friend who’s background on Tulsa King this wk," she wrote, according to Variety. "Casting agent quit because she was so disgusted. My friend is feeling anxious about working now. @TheSlyStallone what do you have to say for yourself, sir? Beyond disappointed, I’m livid."

The post included a screenshot of the Facebook post with the username blurred out.
