Character
Tony Blundetto
Tony Blundetto in The Sopranos (1999), played by Steve Buscemi.
Fresh out of a seventeen-year prison stretch, Tony Blundetto wants nothing to do with the life that put him there. He talks about becoming a licensed masseur, leans on his cousin Tony Soprano for a fresh start, and carries himself with the careful, watchful calm of a man trying hard to stay out of trouble.
Buscemi plays him with a jittery decency that never quite settles, a man visibly negotiating with his own worst instincts in real time. The show uses him to ask whether anyone actually escapes this world, and Buscemi's nervous warmth makes you want to believe Tony B. might be the one who does.
Anthony "Tony B" Blundetto is a major character on The Sopranos. He is Tony Soprano's maternal cousin who served 20 years in prison on hijacking charges before being released in 2004 and trying to go legitimate. Upon returning to a life of crime, he drags the entire Soprano crime family into a mob war by recklessly intervening on behalf of one of the factions vying for control of the New York Lupertazzi crime family.
