Terrible news for TV fans: James Gandolfini, who played mobster Tony Soprano on HBO's seminal drama "The Sopranos," died suddenly today at the age of 51, Variety is reporting.

Gandolfini was traveling in Italy on vacation when he fell ill; various reports have him suffering a heart attack and a stroke. He is survived by his wife, Deborah Lin, and a son, Michael, from a previous marriage.

He won three Emmys and one Golden Globe for his performance as Tony Soprano on the HBO drama, a conflicted, sometimes villainous role that launched the current wave of TV antiheroes. "The Sopranos" remains HBO's highest-rated series ever, with 13.4 million viewers tuning in for the Season 4 premiere in 2002.

In addition to "The Sopranos," Gandolfini appeared in dozens of movies, including memorable supporting turns in "True Romance," "Get Shorty," and last year's "Zero Dark Thirty."

The Sopranos is one of maybe three or four American series I would consider truly classic, and a lot of that is down to James Gandolfini. Pretty sad news.

i feel very bad for laughing at that, but considering the finale, somehow, it's appropriate.

One of the most charismatics characters in TV history, and certainly the best TV show ever.

Today on the news I heard that James Gandolfini died of a heart attack while he was on a holiday trip through Europe. He was in Italy when it happened. Which is sort of appropriate imo considering his lineage. But still, it's sad to see a good actor go so early. He was only 51 :/

Here's to you!

We now have 3 of these threads. I'm gonna move this to off topic and merge it :thumb2:




I've never actually watched The Sopranos but I've heard fantastic things about it. For anyone to die at the age of 51 in this day and age is a tragedy. May he rest in peace.

Damn man go watch it! It's one of the best tv-shows I've ever seen in my life. Every episode is 40 minutes long and is sort of a mini-movie, only it had a weekly sequel. It seriously raised the bar for television shows all over the world.
