Boardwalk Empire returns Sunday night at 9 p.m. ET/PT on HBO and HBO Canada. The third season begins with “Nucky” (Steve Buscemi) no longer just “half a gangster” as the promotional materials for this series declares.
The season premiere episode, “Resolution,” was written by series’ creator Terry Winter and directed by fellow executive producer Tim Van Patten, two guys who grew up in Brooklyn and worked together on The Sopranos. I met them both on the set last summer in Brooklyn and Van Patten, as you can see in the above clip, is always pumped about working that huge outdoor boardwalk set.
