Johnny Ola

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Johnny Ola is a fictional character appearing in Francis Ford Coppola's film The Godfather Part II and in the novel The Godfather Returns. Ola was portrayed by actor Dominic Chianese.

Johnny Ola is a mobster and right hand man to Jewish mobster Hyman Roth. He is Sicilian but also speaks English without an accent. Ola is part of Roth's plan to assassinate Michael Corleone at his home at Lake Tahoe, with unwitting help from Michael's brother Fredo. When Michael asks if Fredo and Johnny had ever met, they deny knowing each other, but Fredo later inadvertently reveals that he and Ola had spent time together in Havana; Michael then realizes that Fredo had betrayed him. Michael sends his bodyguard Bussetta to kill Ola and Roth. Moments later, Bussetta strangles Ola on the balcony.

Johnny Ola was based on real life mobster Vincent Alo, who was Meyer Lansky's right hand man.
