Obviously, it didn't happen but I just read an item in an old soap magazine from the 1970's that stated that both Michael and Antony Ponzini (the original Vince Wolek on OLTL) had tested for major parts in The Godfather. All actors audition for parts that they don't get but it's fun to wonder which part that he might have played.

Please don't jump down my throat, but I've never actually seen any of The Godfather movies. What role do people think Stroka might have been up for?
And as upset as some of you may be that I've never actually seen any of The Godfather movies, you couldn't possibly be more shocked than a friend of a friend's husband, who's a walking encyclopedia of those movies. He owns, like, every video release that has ever come out - he's watched the movies who knows how many times - and he's even gotten his son to be almost as big of an expert on them as he is. To put it in terms we'd better understand: he as much into The Godfather as many of us are into DS. [ghost_wink]

How about:
Michael Stroka as Albert Neri
Dennis Patrick as Capt. McCluskey
KLS as Kay Adams
Abe Vigoda as Sal Tessio (Talk about perfect casting!)
Thayer David as Americo Bonasera
John Karlen as Tom Hagen

I would hardly jump down your throat, MB. I've never seen any of the movies either and really have little interest in doing so.
-
I'll bet that Barnabas and Dr. Hoffman enjoyed catching The Godfather at the Collinsport Cinema.
PS Paul Michael (King Johnny) as Don Barzini.
-
I have no doubt that Carolyn and, well, whoever saw it at The Collinsport Drive In. Well, parts of it anyway.😉😉
-
If I had to guess, I would say Michael auditioned for Paulie. Without pointing figures about viewing choices, I actually saw The Godfather again at the Flashback Cinema at Epic Theatre last summer and it's still magnificent.
-
MB, You're not alone - I haven't seen any of them either! Although I always intend to get around to it!!
-
OMG, watch Godfather Pts I and II immediatamente!!!
If I had to guess, I would say Michael auditioned for Paulie.
Yes ("that stronz")!
