In addition to his culinary endeavors, Tucci has also been celebrated for his work in film. His directorial debut, “Big Night,” is often cited as one of the best food movies ever made. This film, which Tucci co-directed with Campbell Scott, showcases his passion for Italian cuisine and his ability to bring it to life on the screen.[4]

Tucci’s latest ventures include a partnership with GreenPan to create a high-quality cookware collection.
