Life After The Sopranos
Attention Sopranos fans. James Gandolfini is returning to HBO.
He's set to play John "Sonny" Vaccaro, the man who signed Michael Jordan to the first million-dollar shoe deal, according to Variety.
The funny thing is, ESPN Magazine compared Vaccaro to a Sopranos character in a 2002 profile, saying he's " long been cast as some kind of mafioso, strong-arming amateur basketball for much of his 63 years."
Tim Swanson's full Hollywood Inc. blog post on this subject can be found here.
