~Weevil/Francis Capra~ A bad boy with a good heart
We all love Weevil. He is almost the stereotype bad boy with a good heart but he has it in his own way. That is what makes his character different then all the rest. So let's see some appreciation for the man with the big "hog"

He was on American Dreams. I don't remember a character named Palladino. It sounds familiar, but can't place it.

I love Francis, but I hated his character in American Dreams. He was such a butthole. I guess that means Mr. Capra can pull off anything, 'cause he seems really sweet to me.

He played Palladino, the guy who hated JJ and was trying to be squad leader or something. I think he was killed. His character was such a jerk.

Okay, I remember him. I knew the name sounded familiar. Yep, he died. He did a great job on that show, I hated him. He does play bad guys well, but what I love about Weevil, is like the thread title, you can see soft spots and a good heart.

Thanks for the info.

OMG! Francis was young Bob in SLC Punk?!

OMG OMG OMG!!!

Sorry. Fangirl moment. They shall cease from this point on.

I love Weevil. "The bad boy with a good heart." So true. It's nice to see the Mars team adding more depth to some of the stereotypes that are taking resident on the screen now. Weevil's probably tied as my second, or my third favorite character in the show.

Weevil is easily my second favorite character on the show. It is a crime that they can't find more screen time for him, but at least he's been around more and more. Hopefully he'll play a bigger role in upcoming episodes.

I just saw that Francis played the kid in Shazam... look here! He's so young!

I loved in Silence of the Lamb when Weevil pretended to be an angry homeowner.

That is definitely in my top 3 favourite Weevil moments.

That was such a great scene.

It's so hard to imagine Francis as the kid who played in Kazaam and Free Willy 2. I just never would have thought he would have turned out to look like...well Weevil.

He is always coming through when Veronica needs him. The first episode I saw was when he went into the store with his gang because Veronica needed some help.
