James Gandolfini‘s son Michael is sharing his thoughts on the rumored The Sopranos prequel series.
If you forgot, the late James, who passed away in 2013, starred as Tony Soprano on the Emmy-winning HBO series, which ran from 1999 to 2007. Michael, 25, then played a younger version of Tony in the 2021 movie The Many Saints of Newark.
In a new interview, Michael addressed the possibility of playing Tony again in the rumored prequel series from Sopranos creator David Chase, who also co-wrote the movie.
