Soprano’s big wig James Gandolfini is in talks to play a casino owning billionaire and join funny men Jim Carrey and Steve Carrell in the New Line comedy Burt Wonderstone.
The picture also starring Steve Buscemi, centers on a once-successful Vegas magic duo that must reunite to square off against a hot shot street magician whose tricks are often dangerous, according to Variety.
THR just reported that Olivia Wilde has been cast as the female lead and according to New Line, beat out Jessica Biel, Michelle Monaghan, Judy Greer and funny girl Sarah Silverman.
Sarah would have been a different, interesting and funny casting.
