Corrado John "Junior" Soprano Jr., portrayed by Dominic Chianese, is a fictional character from the HBO television series The Sopranos. Usually referred to as "Junior" or "Uncle Jun", he is the boss of the DiMeo crime family for most of the series. However, he held little to no influence due to him being positioned as a front boss. A younger Corrado sometimes appears in flashbacks and is played by Rocco Sisto. Corey Stoll portrays a young Junior Soprano in the 2021 prequel film, The Many Saints of Newark. Dominic Chianese's performance as Junior received critical acclaim, garnering two Emmy nominations for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Drama Series.
