About This TSC News TV Interview: Fred Richani interviews legendary actor Gianni Russo about his role as Carlo Rizzi in the legendary The Godfather trilogy, mafia life, being mentored by Marlon Brando and Frank Sinatra, as well as overcoming polio, his friendship with Al Pacino (Michael Corleone), beef with James Caan (Sonny Corleone), his best-selling books spilling all the mob secrets, and much more!
Gianni Russo Bio:
GIANNI RUSSO has made a career of playing tough guys. Although remembered most for his portrayal of Carlo Rizzi in Francis Ford Coppola's and Mario Puzo's “The Godfather”, his first acting job, his career has spanned over 40 films including such hits as The Freshman, Rush Hour, Any Given Sunday and Sea Biscuit as well as television roles in Kojak, The Rockford Files and Prison Break. And most recent.. due out this fall “Send No Flowers”.
Russo believes it’s his crooning that separates him from the mob of other on-screen wise guys. His debut CD Reflections paid homage to such legendary singers as Dean Martin and Frank Sinatra. These icons inspired him both personally and professionally. The CD, which is available on iTunes and Amazon.com contains a bonus track where Russo reminisces about the behind-the-scenes drama that took place during the filming of “The Godfather”. Russo travels the country with his orchestra to sold out appearances performing the music that has influenced his Life. His follow up CD was released in June 2010, and his self titled wine label Gianni Russo Wines launched nationally in 2009.
Born in Manhattan and raised in Little Italy and Staten Island, Russo overcame polio as a child to start his first “business” at the tender age of twelve, selling pens and erasers on the street corners. At eighteen Russo made his first trip to Miami, where he began to dabble in show-business, working in nightclubs and hotspots before deciding to pursue acting and move to Hollywood.
