DeVito's name was subsequently procured for Pesci's Academy Award winning character from Goodfellas.
Having started in March 2008, Ashfield originated the role of Bob Gaudio in the West End production of Jersey Boys at the Prince Edward Theatre, with his final performance taking place on Sunday 13 March 2011.
As the character based on Bob Gaudio explains in the musical Jersey Boys, "I'm watching the million dollar movie. Some cheesy John Payne western. He hauls off and smacks Rhonda Fleming across the mouth and says, 'What do you think of that?' She looks up at him defiant, proud, eyes glistening - and she says, 'Big girls don't cry.'"
