Very sad, not even that old.
So I guess that's the end of eating cold chicken parm and rigatoni out of the fridge.
He has worked steadily since the end of The Sopranos". His movies included Zero Dark Thirty, Killing Them Softly, Welcome to the Rileys, Where the Wild Things Are, The Incredible Burt Wonderstone, and several minor parts.
The man could flat out act and Hollywood knew it. He was not hurting for work and was starting a new series called Criminal Justice.
favorite actors of all time. Im bummed out.
sucky sucky news.
“A wrong decision is better than indecision.”
- Tony S.
Tony plays a minor role. Paulie and Christopher attempt to collect money from a Russian hood named Valery. Violence erupts. Valery is shot and dumped into the car trunk, supposedly dead. The plan is to bury him somewhere in the Pine Barrens, a heavily forested area in south NJ. But when Paulie and Christopher open the trunk, they find Valery not only alive, but able to beat them up with a shovel and escape. During a cellphone call Paulie learns that Valery is a former Russian commando who killed "23 Chechnyans." Later, while hunting for Valery in the Pine Barrens, Paulie reminds Christopher to be careful with Valery --- "he killed 23 Czechoslovakians."
he played the hell out of Tony Soprano... arguably the best, and certainly most recognizable, tv character of his generation. i don't know too many people who didn't watch the show. he was great in just about everything he took on. taken way, way too young.
