“Guy finally says, ‘Listen, you’re a great actor, we like what you’re doing, but you got to know one thing: ‘A don never wears shorts.’ Turns out we have a creepy anonymous caller to thank for one of the show’s most memorable dialogues between actors Tony Lip and James Gandolfini. “The guy doesn’t identify himself,” Imperioli continued. An iconic “Sopranos” quote was called in by an anonymous source who frightened James Gandolfini. “He answers the phone, ‘Hello,’ and the guy on the other line says, ‘Hello,’ and then nobody’s talking.
“The story goes like this: Gandolfini got a call in the middle of the night on his cell phone, it was an unknown number,” Imperioli said in the oral history.
Michael Imperioli detailed the frightening moment in his new book, “Woke Up This Morning” (co-written by Steve Schirripa), and described the call as so scary that it would leave even the toughest mafioso trembling.
