MICHAEL GANDOLFINI : TIME FOR ANOTHER DOSE OF THE SOPRANOS

NOBODY is happier that Covid is winding down and movies are starting to be released again than Michael Gandolfini. Michael finished filming the prequel to The Sopranos, called The Many Saints of Newark, in June 2019 and has been waiting impatiently for a release date (and for his career to take off!) Michael, of course, plays his father James Gandolfini’s character as a teenager in the highly anticipated Saints move. It’s written and produced by David Chase who created the much beloved Sopranos, and we have MISSED that family! The trailer above, will whet your appetite…

MICHAEL GANDOLFINI IS ENJOYING HIS FATHER’S LEGACY

Life is good for Michael Gandolfini. And why not? He’s only 19 years old and already starring in a major feature film – Newark (formerly The Many Saints of Newark) playing the younger version of his father James Gandolfini’s beloved character Tony Soprano. The movie is set in the 1960’s and features the Newark race riots. It won’t be released until September 2020, and Michael already has two other movies under his belt, and you saw him in a recurring role on The Deuce. On top of that he has a cute new girlfriend!

Lookin' Good! Ray Liotta The Many Saints of Newark

RAY LIOTTA IS THE PERFECT GANGSTER

Ray Liotta’s got his hair slicked back and he’s ready to start work on The Many Saints of Newark. The prequel to The Sopranos takes place in the 1960’s in Newark when there was bad blood between African Americans and Italians. Liotta happened to grow up in Newark in the 60’s and he remembers. 27 of the cast members who appeared in Goodfellas with Liotta have been cast in the Newark film. Ray’s exact role has not been revealed, but James Gandolfini’s son Michael, 19, is playing Tony Soprano as a young man.

DOES THIS SMILE LOOK FAMILIAR?

James Gandolfini’s son Michael, 19, is set to star in a prequel to The Sopranos called The Many Saints of Newark. You may remember, the last scene of The Sopranos was filmed in this booth at Holsten’s ice cream parlor in Bloomfield, New Jersey. Holsten’s owner made the most of the event by putting a sign at the booth dedicated to the Sopranos and he posted this photo of Micheal after he paid the place a visit…
