Ray Liotta and the mafia go hand-in-hand thanks to his work in Goodfellas. It wouldn’t have been a stretch to envision Liotta as a part of the Sopranos universe, but the actor wasn’t up for the task. Initially offered a part, Liotta turned the gig down because he knew the show would be focused on Tony Soprano. The accomplished actor acknowledged that his ego was “as big as anybody’s” and that “there was no way I was gonna shine.”
