In the five years since âThe Sopranosâ ended, Gandolfini has eschewed the spotlight, instead disappearing into character actor performances such as this one. These roles, while they may lack the iconography of Tony Soprano, have only further proved the actor's wide-ranging talent. (AP Photo/The Weinstein Company, Melinda Sue Gordon, File)
