What actually occurred to Tony on the finish of\u00a0The Sopranos?\u00a0<\/em>Well, in some universe, he enters the Witness Protection Program and tried to recruit\u00a0LeBron James<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>to play for the New York Knicks. Three years after the traditional HBO collection got here to an finish,\u00a0James Gandolfini<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>and\u00a0Edie Falco<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>reprised their roles of Tony and Carmela Soprano in a beforehand unseen video from the Knicks made to recruit LeBron to the crew. The clip was unearthed by the Pablo Torre Finds Out<\/a>\u00a0<\/em>podcast and proven on-line on Tuesday, April 16.<\/p>\n

The video picks up two years after The Sopranos\u00a0<\/em>finale, and it begins with a title card that reads \u201cTwo years later (Somewhere in New York).\u201d Edie\u2019s voice can then be heard as they\u2019re seen on display screen. \u201cTony, I\u2019m so glad we moved to New York. Life is so much better now,\u201d she says. Carmela is seen leaning in at a laptop computer on a kitchen counter as she talks to Tony.<\/p>\n

EXCLUSIVE: We discovered the key tape the Knicks made to recruit LeBron. <\/p>\n

It’s a Sopranos reunion \u2026 and a lot extra.<\/p>\n

Tony is sitting on a sofa studying\u00a0The New York Post<\/em>, and he then lowers the paper, displaying James with a full-grown beard. \u201cLife\u2019s good here, Carm. Even if we are in the Witness Protection Program,\u201d he says as he smiles. Carmela then mentions that they should \u201cfind a place for your friend LeBron to live,\u201d earlier than asking Tony in regards to the NBA star. \u201cHe\u2019s a modern guy, but he respects tradition,\u201d he says. \u201cHe\u2019s gonna be entertaining a lot of people in New York.\u201d<\/p>\n

Tony then tells her that she wants to search out him an incredible place to stay. \u201cYou\u2019ve gotta find something magnificent, something there\u2019s nothing in the world like it, one-of-a-kind, like he is,\u201d he says, earlier than Carmela exhibits him a video of the Knicks taking part in at Madison Square Garden, and Tony agrees that it could be nice for LeBron.\u00a0Jay-Z\u2019s\u00a0<\/strong>\u201cPublic Service Announcement\u201d then performs as a display screen with the phrases \u201cCity of Winners\u201d within the Knicks\u2019 font and coloration scheme is proven.<\/p>\n

Other than\u00a0The Sopranos<\/em> clip, there are various extra clips of different New York-based celebrities all through the video, though a few of them haven’t aged very properly together with Donald Trump<\/strong>,\u00a0Rudy Giuliani<\/strong>, and Harvey Weinstein<\/strong>. Other celebs embody\u00a0Chris Rock<\/strong>,\u00a0Robert De Niro<\/strong>, and\u00a0Spike Lee<\/strong>, per\u00a0Consequence<\/a>.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

The video was seemingly made after LeBron turned an unrestricted free agent in July 2010 after his first few seasons with the Cleveland Cavaliers. Despite the Knicks\u2019 efforts, he went to Miami for the 2010 season, the place he stayed by way of 2014. Gandolfini died of a coronary heart assault in 2013.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
