After the films' success, he was thrilled to have the opportunity once again to work with one of his favorite directors, Francis Coppola, in the role of Steve in Rumblefish. In less than a year, Spano had put three major films in the can and had certainly established his career as a "serious" film actor. To date, Spano has acted in more than 40 theatrical and television films and has made memorable guest appearances in some of the best shows on television.Spano has won several awards for his work over the years and was nominated as Best Actor for Cable's ACE Award for his role as "baby mafia" economic powerhouse Marc Ciuni in Showtime's Blood Ties.
