In a suprise move today, James Galdonfini announced that since he is unable to find other work due to lack of ability, he has determined that ten million dollars for working six weeks a year is not that bad of a paycheck. "I've found me a nice gravy train," Gandolfini told Access Hollywood, "every time I say I'm quitting, they pay me more money for less work. Why would I ever quit, plus it's not like I can do anything else." Immediately following this announcement, Gandolfini's agent denied the quote, "James is a brilliant, talented actor who is constantly being sought for productions, from Red Hook to Menlo Park. He is tired of being seen by hundreds of thousands of people six times a year, and longs to return to the community musical theatre where he belongs. We just want to remind HBO that there are plenty of gigs avaliable for typecast overweight middle aged Italian actors, and James wants to pursue both of them."

HBE executives were not avaliable for comment at this time.
