Giovanni Ribisi Interview

Giovanni Ribisi is a great character actor, and as a supporting player, he’s proved himself to be one of the most reliable performers working today. In Gangster Squad, he plays the techie of the group of cops who go after Mickey Cohen (Sean Penn) -- one of the most dangerous criminals of his time.

Tribute.ca spoke with Giovanni in Toronto about why he thinks gangsters and this era in history makes great material for film and what it is that drives him to take on a role.
