Before They Were Stars
The Sizzling Cast of Boardwalk Empire Before They Were Stars
Back for a fifth and final season, Boardwalk Empire promises more grisly murders, new unexpected villains, and some surprisingly sexy twists. Set during Prohibition, Boardwalk Empire is the riveting tale of a corrupt politician’s alcohol-soaked reign over Atlantic City—and all those who work with and against him. Everything about the show is amazing to look at: the sets, the costumes, and not least the faces of its stars. More Golden Globes are likely in Boardwalk Empire's future. We’ll drink to that.

Aleksa Palladino as Angela Darmody on Boardwalk Empire
Back in 1996, Palladino made her debut as a pregnant teen who “kidnaps” her little sister (played by an 11-year-old Scarlett Johansson) in the underrated indie Manny & Lo. [SPOILER ALERT] On Boardwalk Empire, Palladino played Jimmy’s beautiful bisexual painter wife—until she was brutally murdered, along with her lover, by one of Jimmy’s “business associates.” She may be off the series, but you can still hear Palladino’s distinctive raspy voice in her band Exitmusic.
