\n\t[This story contains spoilers for The Sopranos<\/a> season five.]<\/p>\n

\n\tIt seems someone working on The Sopranos set couldn\u2019t be trusted.<\/p>\n

\n\tDuring a recent interview with The Independent<\/a>, Steve Schirripa, who played Bobby Baccalieri on the Emmy-winning series, claimed someone who worked on the show was leaking information, which resulted in the actors only getting their own pages of the script by the end.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cThere was a leak on set because somebody was selling information. We had some suspects,\u201d Schirripa recalled. However, the culprit was never caught.<\/p>\n

\n\tTo help keep plot details under wraps, creator David Chase also came up with his own plan, specifically for a major spoiler in the season five episode, \u201cLong Term Parking.\u201d Chase filmed two different versions of the scene about Adriana La Cerva\u2019s (Drea De Matteo), Christopher Moltisanti\u2019s girlfriend, fate<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\n\tIn 2017, Matteo detailed Chase\u2019s plan during an interview with Entertainment Weekly<\/a>, recalling, \u201cDavid came to me and said, \u2018I\u2019m going to shoot this two ways: I\u2019m going to kill you and I\u2019m going to let you live. And nobody\u2019s going to know until it airs.\u2019 I\u2019m like, \u2018Okay, I\u2019m dying, for sure, but why shoot it two ways?\u2019 He said one reason was he wasn\u2019t sure what he wanted to do, and the other was to keep confidentiality on set. He would go that far to divert the crew from being able to leak anything.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Sopranos, which won 21 Emmys during its six-season run, from 1999 to 2007, centered on New Jersey mob boss, Tony Soprano (James Gandolfini), as he struggles to balance the demands of his violent criminal organization with a dysfunctional family life.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"[This story contains spoilers for The Sopranos season five.] It seems someone working on The Sopranos set couldn\u2019t…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":493068,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[49,48,75,22799],"class_list":["post-493067","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-entertainment","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-entertainment","tag-the-sopranos"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/493067","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=493067"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/493067\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/493068"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=493067"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=493067"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=493067"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
