Scarlet Rose Stallone, Sylvester Stallone’s actress daughter, is quietly breaking out with a horse caretaker role on “Tulsa King.”
Scarlet, 20, has made brief appearances as Triangle Coffee Roasters barista Spencer, serving coffee to Stallone’s Tulsa-transplanted mob capo Dwight “The General” Manfredi on the Paramount+ series.
Spencer announced her resignation from the coffee shop in Sunday’s episode, prompting Manfredi to make her an offer she couldn’t refuse: to work for him.
Spencer’s new job entails caring for a horse named Pilot, who is prone to breaking out of his stall and running through the streets of Tulsa. Manfredi bought the horse before it was literally shipped to the glue factory.

In ‘Tulsa King,’ Sylvester Stallone finally gets his ‘Godfather’ Mob wish, with a Western twist.
Scarlet is the youngest of Stallone and Jennifer Flavin’s three daughters. Sophia, 26, and Sistine, 24, are members of the influencer-famous brood, who starred in the 2016 shark thriller “Uncaged.”
Scarlet, who co-starred with her father in the 2014 drama “Reach Me,” has what it takes to break into the acting business, Stallone, 76, told USA TODAY in November.
“Some people are diminished by the camera, while others are enhanced by it,” Stallone says. “Even with still photographs, she has a unique way with the camera. My daughters are all lovely, and they each have their own specialties. Scarlet, on the other hand, is adamant about becoming a wandering dramaturge.”
“And she’s willing to try anything,” Stallone adds.
The “The “Rocky” star stated that if his daughter “didn’t have the goods,” he would not recommend the profession. Because I know how it feels. I’ve worked with enough actors to know when acting isn’t their true calling. You just have a feeling.”

Scarlet was “too young” to be considered for the meaty role of Manfredi’s estranged daughter Tina, Stallone’s actual screen offspring.
Tatiana Zappardino was cast as Tina, and Stallone claims she could pass for his daughter “with similar eyes and an Italian appearance. She’s ideal for the part.”
In “Tulsa King,” Tina brings out the protective side of the normally charming Manfredi.
“You pressed the incorrect button. Then you have gangster “Stallone says.
In episode 5, Manfredi brutally murdered Nico, a mob flunky who Tina claimed molested her while her father was serving a 25-year prison sentence.
“When you put a biblical intensity beating on someone, they have to do something that the audience knows is worthy of that,” Stallone says. “The vengeance I exact on my daughter’s assailant is pure Rambo.”
