[no bio found]


TRIVIA:
  • Starred with 'Debi Mazar' (qv) in _So I Married an Axe Murderer (1993)_ (qv) as a love interest, then again in _Empire Records (1995)_ (qv) as a love interest yet again.
  • Last name is pronounced La Pah-lia
  • Italian on his father's side and Dutch on his mother's side.
  • Although often cast as New York tough guys, few people know that he was actually born and raised in Australia. He has said that the only internationally successful Australian actor at the time he began acting was 'Mel Gibson (I)' (qv), who had lost his Australian accent, so he did the same. Today, looking at all the hot young Australian actors who have kept their native accents but can use other dialects in their films, he says he regrets having dropped his accent.
  • Son of Maria LaPaglia (secretary) and Eddie LaPaglia (auto mechanic).
  • Was the original choice to play Tony Soprano in the HBO series _"The Sopranos" (1999)_ (qv) but turned the role down.
  • Welcomed daughter, with 'Gia Carides' (qv), named Bridget born January 2003.
  • He is part owner of an Australian Soccer club called Sydney FC (Football Club)
