Chevy ‘Sopranos’-Themed Commercial Reimagines Show’s Iconic Intro

In a viral ad for their all-electric Chevy Silverado directed by the creator of The Sopranos himself David Chase, actress Jaime-Lynn Sigler, who played Meadow Soprano, helms a reimagining of the show’s iconic opening title sequence which showed her character’s father Tony Soprano (James Gandolfini) driving from Manhattan to New Jersey to the tune of “Woke Up This Morning.”

It has been over 15 long years since The Sopranos aired its last episode in 2007, and Sigler would not have been able to be involved in The Many Saints of Newark, given that the movie was set during her character’s father’s childhood.

There are some distinctions between the commercial and the original sequence, of course. Tony Soprano smokes a cigar in the original sequence, which they substitute for a lollipop in the remake. They also show another character in the sequence, Sigler’s onscreen brother A.J. Soprano played by Robert Iler. Sigler told Yahoo News that featuring A.J. was “showing that the family is still close and still together. They’re dressed well and they’re doing well. It’s the best hope of where Meadow and A.J. would be.”

With a recent resurgence of interest in The Sopranos caused by the release of The Many Saints of Newark, and new fans discovering the show through streaming in quarantine, there’s a chance we may get even more Sopranos content yet. Last October, Chase signed an overall deal to create new content for HBO Max over the next five years, and while that hasn’t been explicitly been confirmed to be in the world of The Sopranos, fans can only wait and hope.
