Michael Gandolfini continues the legacy of Tony Soprano wonderfully in The Many Saints of Newark, thanks both to his physical resemblance to James Gandolfini and his ability to mimic some of the late actor’s more aggressive mannerisms, all whilst still bringing a youthful energy to the character.
The Many Saints of Newark star and real-life son of the late, great James Gandolfini, Michael Gandolfini, has said that he would return to the role of Tony Soprano…but only if the character remains young.
Michael Gandolfini does not yet have many credits to his name, but is hoping to follow in his father’s footsteps outside of playing the Soprano patriarch.
The Many Saints of Newark was theatrically released in the United States on October 1, 2021, along with a month-long simultaneous release on the HBO Max streaming service.
