Paul Sorvino, an imposing actor who specialized in playing crooks and cops like Paulie Cicero in “Goodfellas” and the NYPD sergeant Phil Cerretta on “Law & Order,” has died. He was 83.

His publicist Roger Neal said he died Monday morning in Indiana of natural causes.

“Our hearts are broken, there will never be another Paul Sorvino, he was the love of my life, and one of the greatest performers to ever grace the screen and stage,” his wife, Dee Dee Sorvino, said in a statement.

Dang!

Really like him. Have no idea as to his politics. Leftist I’m guessing. But liked his acting. Plus based on a couple of interviews I like him personally.

I hope not. I reeeeeally want to see his reaction when Trump returns.

Alec "Cross-draw" Baldwin, too.

He initially had serious doubts about playing a gangster because he’d always portrayed basically good-natured characters, and didn’t know how to play a convincing bad guy. He surprised himself, though.

He’s been on Mark Stern’s show. Good guy, and not just cause of the movie.
