Falco dropped from Sopranos prequel

— WENN

Edie Falco reprised her role as Carmela Soprano for new The Sopranos movie prequel The Many Saints of Newark, but her scene was cut.

Director Alan Taylor has confirmed Falco’s segment in the film was left on the cutting room floor and won’t feature in the finished movie, which hits theatres on Oct. 1.

“Not to give away too much but, when you make a movie you’re not exactly sure the final shape it’s going to be and we, believe it or not, shot a few things that included other cast members,” he tells NME.com. “We had Edie come in and she dressed up as Carmela and we shot something with her and it wound up not being in the final movie but it was a great excuse to see her again.”
