We just saw some really sad news. Vincent Pastore, the actor who played the unforgettable Salvatore “Big Pussy” Bonpensiero on HBO’s The Sopranos, has died. He was 80 years old.
This is a tough one for fans. Big Pussy was such a memorable character. His presence on screen was always intense, and the gritty, sometimes dark aesthetic of the show really made his roles stand out. He was found in his Bronx home.
It’s hard to imagine The Sopranos without him. He brought so much to the show. We’re sending our thoughts to his loved ones during this difficult time.
Our Take
It’s always a bummer when a talent like Vincent Pastore is gone. He really left his mark on television. We’ll definitely be rewatching some of his iconic scenes.
