Carmine Caridi was in GF II as Carmine Rosato, and GF III as Albert Volpe the "lucky coat" guy. Any other situations like this? One actor, two characters?

I love my Chrysler and tuna fish sandwiches.

Frank Sivero; he played Genco in Part II and was an (uncredited) onlooker in Part I when Sonny beat Carlo.

Sofia Coppola beats them, though; she played three different characters in all three movies of the trilogy (although some would say she didn't act in Part III).

I believe thatCarmine Caridi was initially considered for the role of Luca Brasi.


Don Cardi cool

I remember reading that Carmine Caridi was one of those considered for Sonny early on. Offhand, I can't remember specifically which book(s) had that information. I'll have to check.

Signor V.

Edit: It's in The Godfather Legacy by Harlan Lebo.

It was Sonny? Ok. I knew that he had been considered for a part in GFI. For some reason I thought that it was for the character of Luca. Thanks Signor V.

Tom Hagen died, apparently, and George's character took his place. What's the real question, and why's it being asked in this thread? \:p Welcome, tho... ;\)



I studied Italian for 2 semesters. Not once was a "C" pronounced as a "G", and never was a trailing "I" ignored! And I'm from Jersey! tongue lol

As bad as she was in GFIII, she was worse in GF1.
