Talking Sopranos, 51 w, guest Peter Riegert ( Assemblyman Zellman) Calling All Cars
Peter Riegert (Assemblyman Zellman) joins Michael Imperioli and Steve Schirripa for this weeks episode of Talking Sopranos. Peter is both an Oscar and Emmy nominee known for his work on Animal House, The Mask, Oscar, Barbarians at the Gate, Crossing Delancey and so much more. He talks about how he got into the business and his first TV job on MASH. He also shares what it was like to work with John Belushi and the entire cast on Animal House. Peter originally auditioned for the role of Elliot Kupferberg on the Sopranos but completely blew the audition. He didnt get the part but David called him a year later to play Assemblyman Zellman. Peter shares some incredible stories about working with James Gandolfini and how he supported him in a way most actors would not. Then Michael and Steve get into the episode but keep getting sidetracked with stories of ghosts, aliens, squid and UFOs. They definitely dont see eye to eye on the world beyond but do agree this is an incredible episode. Lots of fantastic
