Leslie Odom Jr wears a suit with a lot of hands on it while arriving at the premiere of The Many Saints of Newark held at Beacon Theatre on Wednesday night (September 22) in New York City.

The 40-year-old actor was joined at the event by many of his co-stars, including Michael Gandolfini, Vera Farmiga, Alessandro Nivola, Jon Bernthal, and Ray Liotta.

Alexandra Intrator, Mattea Conforti, Joey Coco Diaz, John Magaro, William Ludwig, Aida Turturro, Samson Moeakiola, Corey Stoll, Gabriella Piazza, and Michela De Rossi were also spotted on the red carpet with Edie Falco and Sopranos creator David Chase.

The Many Saints of Newark focuses on a young Tony Soprano, who is becoming a man just as rival gangsters start to rise up and challenge the all-powerful DiMeo crime family.

Caught up in the changing times is the uncle he idolizes, Dickie Moltisanti, whose influence over his nephew will help shape the impressionable teenager into the all-powerful mob boss, Tony Soprano.

If you missed it, Edie filmed a scene for the movie. Here’s what happened to it…

'The Sopranos' Creator Accidentally Reveals What Happened to Tony Soprano in That Blackout Moment

The series finale of the iconic HBO series The Sopranos ended abruptly with the screen going to black while Tony Soprano (James Gandolfini) sat in a diner with his family.

Series creator David Chase has always been tight-lipped about what actually happened, but in the 2019 book “The Soprano Sessions,” he did say that the scene was meant to imply Tony “could have been whacked in the diner.”

Now, a leaked interview that David did with the book’s co-authors seemingly reveals what actually happened to Tony… and it was all accidentally revealed.

“When you said there was an end point, you don’t mean Tony at Holsten’s [diner], you just meant, ‘I think I have two more years’ worth of stories left in me,’” co-author Alan Sepinwall asked David, according to The Independent.

“Yes, I think I had that death scene around two years before the end,” David replied. “Tony was going to get called to a meeting with Johnny Sack in Manhattan, and he was going to go back through the Lincoln Tunnel for this meeting, and it was going to go black there and you never saw him again as he was heading back, the theory being that something bad happens to him at the meeting. But we didn’t do that.”

Co-author Matt Zoller Seitz then said, “You realize, of course, that you just referred to that as a death scene.”

David reportedly then took a long pause before saying, “F–k you guys.”

So there you have it! Tony Soprano was seemingly killed off in that final scene.

'Tony Soprano Is Not Dead' Headlines Are Inaccurate, Creator David Chase's Rep Says

One of the most famous scenes in television history has to be the final scene of The Sopranos, in which the main character Tony Soprano was left with an ambiguous ending.

A journalist for Vox reportedly had a conversation with the show’s creator David Chase and she claims that he admitted to her that James Gandolfini‘s character is not dead.

Now, Mr. Chase‘s representative released a statement to say that the comments were “misconstrued.”

“A journalist for Vox misconstrued what David Chase said in their interview. To simply quote David as saying, ‘Tony Soprano is not dead,’ is inaccurate. There is a much larger context for that statement and as such, it is not true,” the rep said.

DO YOU THINK Tony Soprano is dead or alive?
