Washington, July 04 Former 'Sopranos' star James Gandolfini was recently threw out a member of the audience during the performance of his Broadway play 'God Of Carnage'.

The actor shoved the intruder after he came up on stage, and occupied his seat during intermission, Contactmusic reports.

The man said that he was just a fan, and wanted to meet his idol.

However, that did not stop Gandolfini from tossing the man into the wings, where a security guard ejected him from New York's Bernard B. Jacobs Theatre, reports the National Enquirer.

Before the curtains were up, the actor known for his role as Tony Soprano in the Sopranos regained composure. (ANI)
