Meh...Not sure if his son has a 'hard' enough set of features to pull this off. Galdofini could look fucking mean when he was angry. This kid looks like he wouldn't hurt a fly.

Still looks like it might work. Will watch, Sopranos is still one of my favorites.

In the show Dickie was killed walking into his house or something, possibly by a cop. Lets see if that remains true.

looked half cool, some of the shots it was eerily weird how much his son looks like Gandolfini. Biggest problem is that we know what happens, the show crew didn't have any issues with black gangs or stuff so any character we know is in the show is super safe. Did Tony do any long jail time before Sopranos?

Ray Liotta... neat. i wonder who he is playing. 5 families guy in jail?

The prequel to the Sopranos hit TV show, out in theaters and HBO Max on Oct 1st.

It will be available on HBO Max for 30 days on the same day as theatrical release, then back to theatrical only until it hits PVOD like 2 months later.


if you don't know, James Gandolfini's real life son plays him, as a younger man

i'll definitely watch this at home and then rewatch the Sopranos, not the kinda movie that would get me out to theaters honestly so its sorta interesting to think how essentially we got a prequel through a bit of bait and switch
