Following James Gandolfini’s sudden death, Brad Pitt has paid tribute to the late actor. The two of them worked together on three movies.

Gandolfini died on Wednesday (June 19) in Italy after suffering a massive heart attack. Pitt said in a statement: ”I admire Jimmy as a ferocious actor, a gentle soul and a genuinely funny man. I am fortunate to have sat across the table from him and am gutted by this loss. I wish his family strength and some semblance of peace.” Brad has previously spoken about his admiration for The Sopranos actor, calling him ”the man”.
