Scoop from Variety’s Justin Kroll:

“Boardwalk Empire” actor Vincent Piazza has closed a deal to join the cast of Warner Bros. “Jersey Boys.”

Director Clint Eastwood and producer Graham King have always liked Piazza for the role of Tommy DeVito and offered him the role a couple weeks back, but unlike his other co-stars, Piazza had to first work out his schedule on HBO’s “Boardwalk Empire” before he could come on board.

Piazza will co-star with John Lloyd Young, Erich Bergen, Michael Lomenda and Christopher Walken in the adaptation of the popular Broadway tuner.

  1. Unless I missed something, the line in the story, “Marshall Brickman and Rick Elice are penning the screenplay” hasn’t been true for quite some time now.
