FilmWeek Flashback: Larry’s Interview With James Gandolfini Of The Hit Series ‘The Sopranos’
The acclaimed series “The Sopranos” ran for six seasons on HBO. James Gandolfini starred as the iconic mobster, Tony Soprano. He also starred in other films like “Get Shorty,” “In The Loop'' and “All The King's Men.” He died in 2013. Now, his real-life son Michael Gandolfini stars in the new film “The Many Saints Of Newark,” a prequel of sorts looking at the formative years of Soprano. In honor of the release, we reprise a 2011 conversation with James Gandolfini. “The Many Saints Of Newark” is in theaters and on HBO Max. It’s rated R.
