LaPAGLIA CONSIDERED FOR SOPRANO MOVIE
WITHOUT A CLUE star ANTHONY LaPAGLIA almost got a second chance to play TONY SOPRANO when THE SOPRANOS writers considered a film-within-a-TV show for the series’ final season.
Australian LaPaglia was one of the first actors considered as the Soprano family leader before the role went to James Gandolfini.
But, in a new interview with show creator David Chase for an upcoming final season DVD, the writer reveals LaPaglia was considered again as the star of a spin-off movie about Tony Soprano.
In the DVD special interview, Chase tells interviewer and Sopranos fan Alec Baldwin that he and producers dabbled with the idea of Soprano’s psychologist, played by Lorraine Bracco, writing a book about her encounters with the mob boss.
LaPaglia would have played Soprano in the movie adaptation.
