Gandolfini in the "Loop"
by 
Jane Boursaw on May 2nd, 2008
James Gandolfini is moving beyond Tony Soprano for “In the Loop,” a political satire from BBC Films.
Steve Coogan, David Rasche and former child actor Anna Chlumsky will also star, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Gandolfini will play a U.S. general in the unofficial adaptation of the BBC series The Thick of It, which parodies the inner workings of U.S. and British government agencies and their international relations in a tale of war-hungry politicians. Chlumsky plays a State Department assistant and Rache (United 93) is an undersecretary of state, and Coogan (Hamlet 2) plays a disgruntled U.S. citizen.
