Exclusive: Michael Imperioli and Steve Schirripa, who signed on to do the popular Talking Sopranos podcast on a lark, have just signed a big deal with the HarperCollins book imprint William Morrow to write an oral history of the iconic HBO show. They’ll provide insights, behind-the-scenes stories, and little-known facts from cast and crew that could only come from those on the inside.
Imperioli played Christopher Moltisanti and Schirripa Bobby “Bacala” Baccalieri, two soldiers under Tony Soprano, played by the late great James Gandolfini in the David Chase-created series. They’ve been dissecting each episode on their podcast since April, and Talking Sopranos has proven a tonic for the pandemic and grown to over 5 million downloads. While they told Deadline they hadn’t really watched episodes since filming them until they began the podcast, they are now steeped in Sopranos lore and know where the bodies are buried.
