Actor Paul Sorvino, known for staring as Paulie Cicero in the gangster film Goodfellas, and father of actors Mira Sorvino and Michael Sorvino, died today of natural causes. He was 83.

His death was announced by his publicist Roger Neal on behalf of Sorvino’s wife Dee Dee Sorvino, who was at his side when he passed. “Our hearts are broken,” said Dee Dee Sorvino in a statement. “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.”

Mira Sorvino tweeted, “My father the great Paul Sorvino has passed. My heart is rent asunder- a life of love and joy and wisdom with him is over. He was the most wonderful father. I love him so much. I’m sending you love in the stars Dad as you ascend.”

His last acting credit was the The Birthday Cake, a 2021 indie crime thriller film directed by Jimmy Giannopoulos.
