MORGAN SPECTOR as FRANK CAPONE in BOARDWALK EMPIRE (2010-2014)

[64-jungle-planks]

Night at the Museum: Redesigning Characters 1/4(?)

Character profile: Frank "Noses" Capone

This character is based off of and takes inspiration from the historical Frank Capone.

Real Name: Salvatore "Frank" Capone

Nickname and Meaning: Noses - He got this nickname from being inquisitive and being unafraid to stick his nose into other people's business, even if it gets him into trouble.

Age: 28 (July 16, 1895)

Time Period: Frank is from America's Prohibition in the 1920s, to be exact, hes from April 1st, 1924 Chicago, just before he and a group of Mafioso's went to the polling station near the Western Electric Hawthorn plant.

Family: James "Jimmy" Vincenzo Capone, Raffaele "Ralph" James Capone, and Alphonse "Al" Gabriel Capone + Three younger brothers and one sister that wasn't brought back.

(Headcanons under the cut)

Based on/taken from History:

involved in the Five Points Gang with mobster John Torrio as a kid

Rumored to be queer because he never had an open interest in women/having sex with women like his brothers

Had a kid??? But then took it away from his fiancé??

Nickname was Noses?

Smartest of the eldest Capones

Killed when 70 plain clothes police officers arrived at W 22nd St & S Cicero Ave, Cicero, IL 60804 on April 1st, 1924. He didn’t have time to pull his gun out and was shot so many times, two other bystanders were killed/injured

described as mild-mannered, intelligent and immaculately-dressed

Thought to have ordered 500 deaths since joining the Chicago outfit (1919-1921 to 1924)

“you never get no talk back from a corpse”

+ Intelligent + Social + Hard-working - Quick to anger - Unstable moods

My own silly headcanons:

Can be level-headed, but usually his anger gets the best of him.

His presence calms Al down a lot. His brother really loves him and missed Frank. Frank reminds Al of simpler times when they’d run errands for their old boss Torrio… now Al’s boss.

Represented by clover/clubs. The club symbol represents the summer season and the earth element. The club suit in cards indicates youth, a phase when a person focuses on education, and recklessness.

Frank has matching pins with Al, Jimmy, and Ralph, each brother taking a playing card suit. The brothers made them together with old scrap metal they found in the Navy yard.

Sticks his nose where it doesn’t belong. He likes putting himself in the middle of gossip circles. When he’s not purposefully antagonizing Napoleon to get a reaction, they get along really well because of this.

Wiggles his nose when he thinks hard

Tallest of the Capone brothers (6’1)

Broken out of the museum in search of the closest liquor store out of pure boredom. They tried to pay with greyscale $50s and promptly got kicked out.

A little bit of a sadist.

Gets very violent when he’s upset and enjoys it. Frank doesn’t usually feel bad about his previous actions

Frank: My furby died in my arms when I was a child Ivan: I’m sorry to hear that..? Frank, grinning and joking slightly: Don’t be. I’ve never felt more like a god.

He’d be on Booktok

Like his brothers, Frank will flirt with anyone. Unlike his brothers, Frank is mostly doing it to tease and have fun.

Sucker for hallmark movies

Jerma vibes

His ears turn red when he lies (credit to @frombottlealleytotheharbor for this one)

Frank’s Tommy is a replica whereas his Smith & Wesson Model 10 is from a photo/cutout. His Tommy doesn’t work at all, but his handgun can- he just doesn’t have any bullets.

The Model 10 is named Peggy and the Tommy is Doll

….. don’t call him Frankie unless your family.

Jimmy Consentini belongs to @all-yn-oween. I had to draw him and Frank together because (I think) they both have two-piece suits.

Plain clothes Napoleon is inspired by this and something I have scheduled.

Al, Ralph, Napoleon

BE FOR THE ASK GAME OBVIOUSLY

blorbo (favorite character, character I think about the most):

Charlie. Definitely Charlie. He just fascinates and enrages me (affectionate) so much that I cannot let go. My brain melts every time I think about how he operated and saw more than just what was in it for him as an individual but for the whole underworld (which, yes, he definitely profited hugely from personally). His relationship with Meyer never fails to send me screaming into the sun. The way they worked on every level was unparalleled, they were really soulmates in crime.

Fucking Nefertitties. This asshole.

scrunkly (my “baby”, character that gives me cuteness aggression, character that is So Shaped):

I had to really think about this because I kept going back and forth between Benny and Richard. Meyer would be in the blorbo category with Charlie because he is right up there with him. After some thought, I have to go with Richard. While I love Benny there are just some things that I don't think fit 100% with him in this, while Richard does more naturally. Richard is very murder and babies/family shaped.

scrimblo bimblo (underrated/underappreciated fave):

Chalky. Hands down best dressed on the show, but not appreciated enough.

glup shitto (obscure fave, character that can appear in the background for 0.2 seconds and I won’t shut up about it for a week):

Frank Capone. Okay, yeah he was there for more than 0.2 seconds, but only four episodes?! C'mon! We deserved so much more and some nude scenes. More Capone bro dynamic + more Morgan Spector? It would have been a win/win.

poor little meow meow (“problematic”/unpopular/controversial/otherwise pathetic fave):

You cannot spell Gillian without "controversial" and "problematic."

horse plinko (character I would torment for fun, for whatever reason):

I mean, it would be wrong of me if I didn't say Nelson.

eeby deeby (character I would send to superhell):

Willie. Send him to the super hell of super hell's.

Send me a fandom and I'll tell you my Blorbo

[omgitshelenm16]

That one gif set made me ship Frank Capone and Nelson Van Alden from Boardwalk Empire SO HARD!! I’m definitely going to make some ship bs for them <3

[runn0ft]

Has this been done?

[hacash]

look i know it’s my wont to ramble on about team ny but this is just an interruption to your regularly scheduled blogging to remind you that al capone was canonically the youngest out of the three chicago brothers and that fact is simultaneously hilarious and abso-mother-friggin’-loutely heartbreaking
