James Gandolfini and David Chase Reunite

David Chase’s feature-film debut, a “music-driven coming of age story set in 1960’s” New Jersey called Twylight Zones, has a new cast member: James Gandolfini will co-star in the film as the rock-and-roll-hating father of a teenage boy (John Magaro) in a rock-and-roll band. Should his son fail to convince Gandolfini’s character of the merits of the music (highly unlikely), he can always just wait until the eighties and let “Don’t Stop Believin’” do the trick.
