🎙 Web Extra Spotlight: Steve Buscemi on Boardwalk Empire…

As part of CBS Sunday Morning‘s extended interview with Steve Buscemi during the final season of Boardwalk Empire, this web exclusive features Buscemi in conversation with correspondent Tracy Smith. Known for playing morally complex and often disreputable characters, Buscemi reflects on his layered portrayal of corrupt Atlantic City kingpin Enoch “Nucky” Thompson. Originally aired on September 7, 2014, the full segment, titled “Steve Buscemi’s Passion Project,” offers rare insight into the actor’s connection to the series and his thoughts on saying goodbye to one of his most iconic roles.
