Pictures, a leader in television, film, and digital content
development, is thrilled to announce a partnership with esteemed
Italian-American actor Nicholas
Turturro for the upcoming unscripted series "Where Are My
Italians." The series, created by Nicholas and his wife,
Lissa Turturro, will explore vibrant
Italian-American communities across the
United States, revealing the rich culture and traditions
that flourish far from the urban centers of New York City, Chicago, and Philadelphia.
"Where Are My Italians" follows host Nicholas Turturro on a heartfelt journey to
connect with his Italian roots and discover communities that
maintain their unique heritage through gastronomy, traditions, and
local stories. Each episode features Nick and a guest—be it a
friend or a family member—diving into the Italian-American
experience, from hidden enclaves on the West Coast to prominent
neighborhoods on the East.
Courtney LeMarco, Executive Producer and Director of the series
states, "This series is more than just a travel log; it's a
celebration of heritage and the bonds that connect us. We're
excited to bring Nick's charismatic and heartfelt exploration of
his roots to audiences nationwide."
Nicholas Turturro adds, "Growing
up in a tight-knit Italian family in Queens, I've always been passionate about my
heritage. 'Where Are My Italians' is my quest to explore how
Italian-Americans have contributed to and shaped the American
landscape. It's an honor to share these stories."
The series aims to entertain and enlighten viewers about the
thriving Italian-American spirit and its pivotal role in American
culture.
