11/ 20James Gandolfini Received A $1 Million Paycheck Per Episode For HBO’s The Sopranos
Many people consider ‘The Sopranos’ to be the greatest TV show ever made. It’s a true cult classic by now. The HBO drama that revolves around the New Jersey-based gangster family was (and still is) an enormous hit – both critically and commercially. The great James Gandolfini, who played Tony Soprano, sadly died in 2013 at the age of 51 and presumably left a nice inheritance by earning $1 Million per episode of The Sopranos. God rest his soul.
