Steven Van Zandt, 'Sopranos' Creator David Chase Reunite for Rock .

David Chase has gotten the band together, and it's turned into a reunion tour.

The writer-director has been on a nationwide search for young, relative unknowns to star in his untitled rock 'n' roll coming-of-age film, and he's found them in John Magaro, Jack Huston and Will Brill. But he's also brought aboard his old "Sopranos" actor, guitarist Steven Van Zandt, to supervise the music for the picture and executive produce.

The music-driven project, which will be Chase's feature directing debut, follows a group of suburban New Jersey guys making their way during the 1960s as a rock band called the Twilight Zones. Shooting is scheduled to get in January in New York.

Paramount Vantage will become the film, which Chase is producing with Mark Johnson ("Rain Man").

"I am thrilled to be working with Steven again, eparticularly on this special subject," Chase said. "It's not just that we both worship the same songs and bands from the era, it's that he obviously knows so much. About every aspect. He embodies a particular smell of a particular shape of rock 'n' roll. He actually is that spirit."

Van Zandt grew up amid the music scene on the Jersey shore, becoming a songwriter and producer for Southside Johnny and the Asbury Jukes before gaining international fame as an inherent part of Bruce Springsteen's E Street Band. He eventually became an arranger on the Boss' album "Darkness on the Bounds of Town" and shared production credits on "The River" and "Born in the U.S.A."

Chase cast Van Zandt as Silvio, Tony Soprano's right-hand man, on his classic HBO series "The Sopranos."

"Everyone at Paramount is proud that our studio will be the theatre of David's first feature," said Paramount chairman and CEO Brad Grey, who was an executive producer on "Sopranos." "He is a gifted story-teller and a big friend. His talent, along with Steven's, promises something uniquely insightful and entertaining. We are all looking forward to a big impression and I am personally looking forward to working with them both again."

Magaro, who is repped by Abrams Artists Agency and Unquestionable Talent and Literary Management, has appeared in "The Box," "Assassination of a High School President" and "The Brave One." He also stars in Rogue's "My Soul to Take," which opened last weekend.

Repped by UTA, the Corporal and Ken McReddie Associates in the U.K. Huston most recently appeared in the "Twilight' sequel "Eclipse" and recurs on the HBO series "Boardwalk Empire," created by Chase's "Sopranos" consigliere, Terence Winter. Huston next appears in the dramas "Wilde Salome" and "The Hot Potato."

Brill, repped by Stewart Talent Agency in New York, is making his feature debut.

Paramount Vantage has the Davis Guggenheim documentary "'Waiting for Zen'" in theaters now.
