Giovanni Gambino
Just got off the phone from chatting with Giovanni Gambino. We have a mutual friend here in Michigan and he hooked us up.
Giovanni came to the US when he was 11 years old (1985) with his father Francesco and mother Anna DiMaggio (distant relative of baseball legend Joe DiMaggio). Giovanni told me that the women in Italy keep their maiden names after they get married... Never knew that! His father Francesco Gambino went to prison for 30 years when Giovanni was just 13 years old and Gio was devastated ...

Giovanni has so much going on that I thought we should start with a new reality show Gio stars in called "Wise Move" Which as Gio says is like Entourage Meets the Sopranos!. This is reality tv at it's best. I am particularly excited about "Wise Move" because HBO took all my favorite shows off the air. Take a look at the trailer.... just so my readers know... it has adult content
The producers of "Wise Move" are shopping the show around to different networks but I think this show belongs on HBO...
"Wise Move" (R Rated trailer)
Just a heads up... Gio has a book coming out in November called "Prince of Omerta". This is the fictional story of one of the most ruthless mob bosses in Sicily. Kind of like "The Godfather" on steroids! Stay tuned to RK for more news on Gio...
Gio has 2 screenplays in the works as well...
Mulberry to Rome... a comedy about present day mobsters going back in time to ancient Rome.
Mammalucco.... The story of a mob boss who goes to jail and has his son take over the family business... This is kind of like the movie "Birdcage" meets "Goodfellas"
