The Sopranos is considered one of the best TV series ever made, but it’s cliffhanger ending left a lot of fans still scratching their heads to this day.
Tony Soprano’s potential death in the final scene was left ambiguous, but the show’s creator David Chase finally gave some closure, and further told fans to not be concerned about Tony’s well-being.
When speaking in an interview, Chase just said “No he isn’t” when asked about if Tony died, sparking a massive internet response, but his comments were apparently misconstrued, and here is a follow-up response from Zoller Seitz of Vulture:
“A journalist for Vox misconstrued what David Chase said in their interview. To simply quote David as saying,” Tony Soprano is not dead,” is inaccurate. There is a much larger context for that statement and as such, it is not true. As David Chase has said numerous times on the record, “Whether Tony Soprano is alive or dead is not the point.” To continue to search for this answer is fruitless. The final scene of The Sopranos raises a spiritual question that has no right or wrong answer.”
