Simply titled Newark, the film will hit theaters on Sept. 25, 2020, more than 13 years after the acclaimed HBO series came to an end.
The cast will include Alessandro Nivola, Vera Farmiga, Ray Liotta, Jon Bernthal, Corey Stoll, Billy Magnussen, and John Magaro.
Michael Gandolfini, the son of the late Sopranos star James Gandolfini, will portray a younger version of his fathers famous character, Tony Soprano, in the film. Other characters from the show may also appear in the prequel.
David Chase, the creator of the HBO series, teamed up with Lawrence Konner for the script, which is rumored to be set during the Newark riots of July 1967. Bad blood between African-Americans and Italian-Americans erupted in the New Jersey city at the time and resulted in 26 deaths and hundreds of injuries.
