Chase Explains The Saints Of Newark Misstep, Aims MKUltra Return At HBO

David Chase says his long gap since The Sopranos was due to scripts not getting bought and HBO funding hurdles, and he admits The Many Saints Of Newark missed including Dickie Moltisanti. He’s now developing Project: MKUltra as a limited HBO series (and a film) based on Sidney Gottlieb’s CIA mind‑control program, with Riverain Pictures, splitting the project across TV and cinema. He also floated other ideas, like Italian-Americans returning to Italy, and spoke at Karlovy Vary where the festival runs through July 11.
