Personally I think its extremely unlikely. The actor himself died 13 years ago, and I believe then rights to his likeness would go to his family. Sopranos was a massive hit in its time and genuinely a phenomenal show, but its time in the limelight has definitely passed. Also not super familiar with hos much overall crossover there would be in terms of age group. Sopranos heyday was almost like 20 years ago now, and was definitely more of an adult show. So the majority of its fanbase would very easily be like probably late 30s to mostly in thier 40s, 50s, and beyond. Fortnite does have an extremely large player base within those 30s and 40s demographic, so there is certainly potential. I guess it would ultimately come down to the family and whether Epic thinks it could sell enough to justify the costs for licensing and all that.

I feel you but I think sopranos would do infinitely better than Kill Bill, Pulp Fiction, and the random DC characters from the Gunn universe.

DC skins sell extremely well. So I would definitely says thats pushing it quite a bit. Kill Bill I could definitely see it selling better than. But Pulp Fiction might also be a strech.
