RayRomano says it “was a blessing” that MartinScorsese didn’t know him despite “Everybody Loves Raymond” fame
. “The cool thing was, I went on tape and the response we got back was, ‘Yeah, Marty likes it. He’s in the running. And Marty wants to know who he is. He’s never seen him,’ And my agent was like, ‘So he’s never seen the show?’ And they go, ‘No, no, no, he doesn’t know who the guy is,’ which was a blessing because he didn’t have to erase the sitcom character from his mind.”
Throughout its 1996 to 2005 run, “Everybody Loves Raymond” won 15 Emmy awards and was named one of the top 10 most-watched shows on television for five seasons.In “Vinyl”, about a troubled music studio in the 1970s, Romano starred as one of the company executives. The series, which was co-created by Scorsese alongside Mick Jagger, Rich Cohen and Terence Winter, also starred Bobby Cannavale and Olivia Wilde.
“We do the pilot and I’m playing this guy from the ’70s, this music guy, and I’m snorting coke, this and that, and it’s a stretch for me but it’s fun as hell,” Romano recounted. “And then a year goes by, almost a year until they do the second episode. And I’m reading it and my character has to contemplate killing myself in his garage and breakdown crying. And I go to my agent: ‘Well, I don’t know if I can do this.
