Sylvester Stallone Accused of Insulting 'Tulsa King' Background Actors as Casting Agency Quits

The controversy exploded after the accusations came to light in a Facebook page for the background actors.

On Tuesday, Craig Zisk, the director and executive producer for the Paramount+ series, refuted the allegations in an interview with TMZ, telling the outlet that "no such insults were hurled."
