Michael Gandolfini, the son of late actor James Gandolfini, is opening up about what his father told him about becoming an actor.
. During the conversation, he revealed his father's thoughts on him following in his footsteps.
"Yeah, it was a difficult decision," Michael shares of taking on the role. Later, he added that he loved performing as a kid. He saw the musical"I dressed up as the Scarecrow almost every night, and my dad would videotape me singing," he says."As I got older, he wanted me to play sports. I felt that burden. I wanted to make him proud. And he said, 'Don't be an actor; be a director. They have the power.
"It was an intense process. Because, as an actor, I had to watch this guy who created the role, to look for mannerisms, voice, all those things I would have to echo," he continues."But then I'd also be seeing my father. I think what made it so hard was I had to do it alone. I was just sitting alone in my dark apartment, watching my dad all the time."
Michael also shares that when he decided to embrace acting, he had the time of his life. The experience also helped him begin to find closure concerning the loss of his father.," he says of acting."It actually started my grieving process with my dad." , some scenes in which Tony bonded with his kids understandably left a massive impact on him.
"There's a scene where Meadow comes home late at night, and he's sitting with a drink, and he's like, 'You know I love you, right?' That hit hard," he states."The other one that crushed me was when he yells at A.J., and he gets a pizza to apologize, and he sits by his son's bed and says, 'I couldn't ask for a better son.' I just knew he was talking to me in that scene.
