From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Richard Romanus (February 28, 1943 - December 23, 2023) was an American actor of Lebanese descent. Among other roles, he appeared in Martin Scorsese's Mean Streets, and provided voices for Ralph Bakshi's animated films Wizards and Hey Good Lookin'. He played Lorraine Bracco's ex-husband, later husband again, in three episodes of The Sopranos from 1999–2002. Romanus was born in Barre, Vermont, the son of Eileen (née Maloof) and Dr. Raymond Romanos. His younger brother, Robert, is also an actor. They both appeared in some episodes of MacGyver in the 1980's.
