Fans eager for the return of “The Sopranos” got a sneak peek this week at the long-anticipated movie prequel to the beloved HBO series.
On Wednesday, Warner Bros. released a short trailer showcasing its 2021 spate of movie releases. Highlights of the nearly two-minute clip include “Godzilla vs. Kong,” due out in March, and the big screen adaptation of the smash musical “In the Heights.”
Generating the most buzz, however, was the first footage of the “Sopranos” prequel. Slated for a September release, “The Many Saints of Newark” takes place in 1967 and stars Michael Gandolfini as a young Tony Soprano, the fictional Italian American mobster originally played by his late father, James Gandolfini, for six seasons on “The Sopranos.”
