I don't think Vincent could carry a whole movie. The Godfather is Michael's story. Period. End of story. They'd have to set it in between Mary's and Michael's respective deaths.
Don't call it the Godfather then. Call it The Bastard Corleone and make it about Vincent's story after Part III. Michael's story is over and wouldn't be needed IMO.

I dont think he would even have to... with the right main storyline mixed with interwoven subplots... it could be good.
Changing the name of the film could actually work.But theres no way the producers would ever do that.The Godfather name ,of course would bring in so much more viewers and revenue.
