The Sopranos: Last News

Last year, we saw the premiere of “The Many Saints of Newark,” the first spinoff project based in the world of “The Sopranos.” While the idea of the film was met with excitement from fans when it was announced, the film wasn’t very well received by critics and it seemed like fans were mixed with their feelings. All that to say, ‘Many Saints’ seems like a classic case of “be careful what you wish for.” Now, according to the head of HBO, it doesn’t seem like there’s any interest in bringing back “The Sopranos” in any sort of sequel/prequel.
