Reply to comment by Cake-Over in True Romance (1993) by movieguy2004

Fun Fact : After Steve Carrell was forced out of The Office, NBC approached James Gandolfini too take over as lead. HBO found out about the offer and paid James three million dollars not to do it. They didn't want the legacy of Sopranos to be tainted by him appearing in a comedy.
