Gandolfini better lay off the cannolis, or the only GF role he would be able to play would be Clemenza. :rolleyes:

I think an HBO Godfather series could be cool...

How about "The Corleone Chronicles" ? You could set up parallel story lines in the 1930s, the 1960-70s, and the 1990s-2000s - the three prime time periods not already covered by the films. (You could even have episodes set in Sicily 1895 - the back story of how Antonio Andolini and Don Ciccio became enemies)

Edit: Frankie BlueEyes, i see this is just about exactly what you propose.


Obviously they'd want to wait a couple years after The Sopranos ends, but it could actually be pretty good.. FFC could serve as ExProd and supervise scripts, direction, etc...


I agree - no David Chase (except perhaps as an occasional guest director.)

I'd severely limit any Sopranos actors from the cast, with the possible exception of Michael Imperioli as a 20-ish Michael Corleone (see posts way above). I don't think anybody else really fits any of the roles anyway.
