Acting had been Bracco's main source of income ever since the '80s, when she began her career by working as a DJ for Radio Luxembourg and appearing in the show, "Crime Story." Her first major role came with the 1986 film, "Camorra," followed by movies like "Someone to Watch Over Me," "The Pick-Up Artist," "Sea of Love," and more.

Bracco's other works include "Medicine Man," "Switch," "Traces of Red," and "Even Cowgirls Get the Blues." A decade after "Goodfellas", Bracco auditioned for crime series "The Sopranos," and bagged the role in 1999. She earned critical acclaim for her performance on the show and even won three consecutive Emmy Award nominations for it.

Cashing in on her success in showbiz, Bracco lanched her own wine collection called Bracco Wines, which gained recognition on Bravo's Top Chef Season 1 finale in 2006, where she was a guest judge. She continued to appear on TV with "Throwdown! with Bobby Flay" and "TNT's Rizzoli & Isles." Post-2016, she had recurring roles in "Dice" and "Blue Bloods."

In 2020, Bracco starred in "Jacir," delivering a powerful performance, and also featured in the HGTV series, "My Big Italian Adventure," showcasing the renovation of a 200-year-old house in Sambuca di Sicilia. More recently, she lent her voice to Sofia the Seagull in Robert Zemeckis' 2022 "Pinocchio" remake.
