NEW YORK - “Sopranos” star Edie Falco was diagnosed last year with breast cancer, but has completed her treatment and is healthy, a representative for the 41-year-old actress told The Associated Press.
Falco worked on the HBO show during her treatment, but her representative wouldn’t comment Wednesday on whether she underwent chemotherapy or surgery.
She will soon begin rehearsals for Marsha Norman’s Pulitzer Prize-winning play, “’night, Mother,” also starring Brenda Blethyn, which will open on Broadway in November.
Falco has won three Emmy Awards for her role as mob wife Carmela Soprano on “The Sopranos,” and has been nominated for a fourth Emmy this year.
