Gandolfini will be forever known for his portrayal of mob boss Tony Soprano on the seminal HBO series The Sopranos, which won him three Emmy Awards. He remained in business with the pay cable network and was in pre-production on a new limited series, Criminal Justice, in which he was to play the lead, one of several projects he had in the works.

His ex wife said he would go on a 4 day meth binge every 3 weeks or so and then lay around and eat pizza the rest of the time... Not good for the heart.
RIP Great Actor and Rolemodel
