Before casting the role of 'Dickie DiCenzo' to Randy Borruso, Joey Ambrosini had both Alec Nevin and Carlos Morrow in mind to portray the character.
The shooting for this movie was almost delayed due to the SAG-AFTRA strike. However, it ended up falling in the categories of permitted projects.
Tony Spera stated he used classic mob movies such as Goodfellas (1990) and Casino (1995) as study tools to help him develop the character of 'Carmine De Luca'.
Joshua Eaddy's character ('Franklin Davis') is a fictional character, yet was inspired by Frank Lucas, an American drug lord who was portrayed by Academy Award winning actor Denzel Washington in the Oscar nominated biopic American Gangster (2007).
Joey Ambrosini and Joshua Eaddy are both theater alumni's of Housatonic Community College. They both were also in the same improv class.
