Jelly Roll on 'Tulsa King': Watch singer meet Sly Stallone's mobster
Watch Jelly Roll, who was thrilled to shoot a scene for his favorite show "Tulsa King," even if Sylvester Stallone's mobster calls him Jelly Fish.
Jelly Roll is adding "actor" to his resume.
The country music star will try his hand at television stardom with a new guest role on CBS' popular series "Fire Country," the network confirms.
His character, Noah, is a healthcare worker and ex-convict hoping to remake his life. The role is an easy fit for the rapper and singer who has risen to popularity in part on the heels of his own second chance story.
During his teenage years and early twenties, Jelly Roll, whose real name is Jason Bradley DeFord, was arrested several times on drug and robbery charges. Following the release of several mixtapes, his 2022 single "Son of a Sinner" skyrocketed him to fame, establishing a music career that draws heavily on themes of incarceration and redemption.
In a preview of the episode, which will premiere April 11, Paramount, CBS' parent company revealed that Noah lost his mother while serving time in prison and now works with other patients like her and their loved ones who are struggling to say goodbye.
The episode will revolve around a chair lift accident at a ski resort and explore main character Billy Burke's (Max Thieriot) personal struggles amid caring for his sick father.
"Fire Country" marks Jelly Roll's first scripted role − he previously appeared as himself in a cameo for Paramount+'s "Tulsa King."
He appeared during Season 2 of the TV drama alongside Sylvester Stallone in an episode that featured his popular song "I Am Not Okay."
"I'm such a hard-core 'Tulsa King' fan that me and my wife binge-watched the whole first season the first day it dropped," he told USA TODAY over email at the time. "There's so much wild (stuff) going on in 'Tulsa King,' so much crossing out happening, I think 'I Am Not Okay' was perfect."

7 Netflix crime dramas so addictive, you'll want to binge them more than once
If you purchase an independently reviewed product or service through a link on our website, BGR may receive an affiliate commission. Streamers like Netflix have a way of turning crime dramas into compulsive viewing, with stories that pull us deep into the dark side of human nature and show what happens when people decide the rules don't apply to them. It's not just the thrill of a heist or the tension of a cover-up that make them so perversely fascinating; it's watching ambition, desperation, and ego collide in slow motion, usually with a body count. It's the way power and avarice can build up and dash an empire. These kinds of stories, when you think about it, offer the entertainment of pure escapism and a front-row seat to chaos. Which, by the way, is more or less what MobLand star Tom Hardy told me when I recently interviewed him about his Paramount+ series, and I asked him why we're so drawn to stories like these: Today's Top Deals Best deals: Tech, laptops, TVs, and more sales Best Ring Video Doorbell deals Memorial Day security camera deals: Reolink's unbeatable sale has prices from $29.98 'It's sort of wish fulfillment and escapism, isn't it? Watching people doing things that are beyond me doing. And I think there's something of the comic book within them as well, in many aspects. And, there's a parody in a lot of it, too — because, in real life, gangsterin' is pretty horrible and heinous, serious stuff. I think it's just an escape. And there's freedom in it as well … like saying, 'No, I'll do what I want whenever I want.' We like to see whether they get away with it.' -Tom Hardy, in an April 2025 interview with BGR That mix of danger and hedonism is what makes these stories so hard to resist. And so, with that in mind, I've rounded up seven Netflix crime dramas that are so addictive, bingeing them just once won't be enough. Believe me, because I've burned through all of these at least twice. Guy Ritchie's signature swagger gets the perfect delivery vehicle in the form of this Netflix original that feels like a cross between Succession and a blood-soaked pub brawl. Set in the same universe as his 2019 film, the series follows a reluctant heir to a cannabis empire trying to keep the family business from going up in smoke. It's fast-talking, sharply dressed, and full of double-crosses, with loads of dry wit and a rotating cast of psychopaths who'll charm your socks off. With The Gentlemen, Netflix in my humble opinion has found its most effortlessly cool new crime franchise. This Swedish thriller is a pulse-pounding ride through the dark intersection of ambition and greed. A tech entrepreneur chasing startup dreams gets entangled in Stockholm's criminal underworld, and suddenly lines start blurring. Snabba Cash isn't just gritty; it's icy and ruthless, with the tension of a fuse that never stops sizzling. Paced like a thriller, it also makes you care deeply about characters whose choices grow more questionable by the minute. Ricky Gervais raved on X about the series: 'Just finished Season 2 of Snabba Cash. Blown away. One of the best series of all time. The writing, acting, direction, casting, editing, soundtrack, design and titles are all perfect. The Wire meets Wall Street. Stunning.' Based on the best-selling Danish crime novels, Dept. Q is a slow-burn procedural that follows a disgraced detective and his partner as they reopen long-forgotten cold cases — and also stumble into secrets that powerful people want to keep buried. The cases are haunting, the atmosphere is bleak, and the character work here is as sharp as a coroner's scalpel. And while the show leans into familiar, Slow Horses-style grumpy detective territory, I can't stress this point enough: Dept. Q is one of the best new Netflix shows of 2025. Oh, and it comes from the writer of The Queen's Gambit, in case you need another reason to watch. Jason Bateman as a criminal mastermind? Um, yes please. What starts off in Ozark as a simple money-laundering job quickly spirals into a bloody feud with cartels, corrupt politicos, and local crime families. Bateman plays against type as genius accountant Marty Byrde, while Laura Linney's Wendy evolves into his cold-blooded Lady Macbeth of a wife. What makes Ozark so good isn't just the danger; it's the slow transformation of Marty from a mild-mannered numbers guy into a master manipulator. Like Walter White, he's calm under pressure and scarily good at rationalizing his descent. But Marty doesn't break bad so much as calculate his way there. Watching him balance family life with criminality is like watching someone juggle knives while blindfolded. This Italian gem is a bit under the radar as far as Netflix crime dramas go, but Suburra is absolutely a must-watch for fans of international thrillers. Set in the underbelly of Rome (the name itself refers to a poor slum in ancient Rome), this series puts politicians, priests, and street gangs on a violent collision course. It's got the operatic intensity of Max's Gomorrah (which, cards on the table, just so happens to be my favorite crime drama of all time) but with more political intrigue and style that's just a little bit sharper, whereas Gomorrah is much rougher and much more primal. And when you're done, don't forget to check out the follow-up show with a similar title that's also available on Netflix: Suburræterna. This next beloved Netflix crime drama is basically a walking quote book. In creator Steven Knight's Peaky Blinders, Cillian Murphy leads a Birmingham crime gang with icy calm and steely charisma, in a show that fuses post-World War I ennui with rock 'n' roll swagger. What started off as a BBC period drama became a global phenomenon, thanks to Knight's superb writing, family drama, and style so slick it should be illegal. Whether you're watching for the gangster power plays or the killer suits, Peaky Blinders delivers. What's more: Netflix has also a feature film in the works that will serve as a one-off extension of the six-episode series. This final Netflix crime classic is more about psychological warfare. Produced by David Fincher, Mindhunter is all about the early days of the FBI's criminal profiling unit. Instead of car chases and shootouts, viewers are treated to chilling interviews with serial killers. It's methodical, cerebral, and utterly terrifying. Mindhunter digs into what makes monsters tick, and what it costs to stare them in the eye. Starring Jonathan Groff and Holt McCallany, the series is so good that if you ask a group of Netflix subscribers which cancelled series they'd most want to see brought back — this one would end up on most people's lists, no question about it.

‘Love Island' UK vs USA: The Biggest Differences Between the Shows
The reality TV gods have truly blessed us, as right now, not one, but two series of Love Island are currently airing, and honestly what a summer we have ahead of us. Earlier this week the 12th series of Love Island UK landed on ITV2 and last week Love Island USA began its seventh season on Peacock. Much of the show remains the same on both sides of the pond—a group of eligible singles are on the lookout for love spending eight weeks in a villa, where they have a summer of cracking on, "got a text" and deep meaningful chats around the firepit. However, there are some pretty major noticeable differences between both iconic shows. Curious to know more? These are the biggest difference's between Love Island UK and Love Island USA. UK Love Island UK is of course hosted by the icon that is Maya Jama. The TV presenter has been working on the show since series nine in 2023, after taking over from Laura Whitmore. She also hosts the show's spin-off Sunday night episode Aftersun. USA Meanwhile in the USA, former Vanderpump Rules cast member Ariana Madix presents the show. Ariana joined last season, following former host Sarah Hyland's exit from the show. While the hosts may be different, Iain Stirling does in fact do the voiceovers for both series. UK Since the show's inception 10 years ago with series one in 2015, Love Island has always been filmed on the Spanish island of Mallorca. In the first few series it was shot in Santanyi, however since 2017 it's been filmed in Sant Llorenç des Cardassar. The winter version of the series takes place in South Africa. USA Love Island USA has filmed in a variety of locations since it began. When the show was out on CBS the first season was filmed in Fiji, however it was moved to Las Vegas for season two due to the pandemic. The third season then took place in Hawaii. The show was then moved to be shown on Peacock and as part of this for the show's first season on the new network the series was filmed in California. And for the last three seasons, including the one currently airing, Love Island USA is filmed in Fiji. UK This season Love Island returns to its Mallorcan Villa, which is traditionally available as a holiday let, but is taken over by ITV every summer to create the legendary villa. In the villa there's one bedroom and one bathroom for all the Islanders. As well as the hideaway, outdoor kitchen and firepit. USA Like most things in the States, the Love Island USA villa is much bigger than the UK version. Unlike the UK one however, this villa is a set designed entirely for the show, rather than using an existing structure. They also have the addition of a 'speakeasy'. Unlike in the UK where the beds face each other, in the US all the beds are in a long line in the bedroom. UK Over the years there's been a lot of challenges in the UK version of the series, from the Twitter challenge, to the baby challenge and of course all those gross food tasks. Thankfully the food tasks are now gone and generally the producers have cut back on the game element of the series. Now, the biggest challenges are the "snog, marry, pie" and the snogging line up challenge. USA In the USA, the series does a variety of challenges and while they keep some the same such as "snog, marry, pie" there's still a lot of different ones. Earlier this season they did a blind-folded test with the new bombshells and last year they continued the tradition of doing the food challenges they've axed in the UK. UK Since the show began in 2015, Love Island UK has always given away a prize fund of £50,000 to the couple who are crowned the season's winners. For many of the seasons the winning couple would then be asked if they wanted to split or steal the money from their partner, however this part of the show has since been axed. USA Over on the other side of the pond, the winning couple walks away with a joint prize fund of $100,000.
