Dapagio and Caliendo met through mutual business interests, and it soon became apparent that they could team up in a powerful way on MobKing: The Movie. Caliendo says, "After meeting Ciro, I believed in his vision and I know a good investment when I see one. It was always a dream of mine to be an actor in a cool mob flick and now I'm fulfilling that dream...big!"

Dapagio has already created the frenzy, turning The MobKing brand into an award-winning, international, social media phenomenon with millions of followers. Caliendo's MAINMAN Productions will fuel the frenzy by exposing the film to major distributors and streaming using marketing strategies that have made him successful. The goal: catapult MobKing: The Movie into the mainstream to become "one of the greats" in the mob movie genre.

That goal is well within reach with an ensemble cast of gangster movie greats featuring James Russo (Donnie Brasco), Robert LaSardo (Burn Notice), Oksana Lada (The Sopranos), Artie Pasquale (The Sopranos), Paul Borghese (The Irishman), Stelio Savante (The Sopranos), Antoni Corone (Bad Boys II), Elisabetta Fantone (Big Eyes), Bruce Soscia (The Families Feud) and the debut of Anthony Caliendo. The movie is directed by Emmy award-winning director Jorge "Jokes" Yanes (Eenie Meenie Miney Moe, The MobKing Series) and independently filmed by Ciro Dapagio Films (scheduled for release in 2022).
