Johnny Tuturro / RioHead Cannon

Johnny Tuturro / Rio Head Cannon

I have this head cannon that my friend and I talked about and I can’t stop thinking about it and the more I watch of Graceland, the more details I get for my head cannon and I just think it’s a good one so I’m going to share it with you guys.

-

My head cannon is that Johnny Tuturro is who Rio was before he became Rio. Maybe Johnny’s cover got blown and he had to leave Graceland so he was given Rio as a new cover but that keeps him as a good guy. I think, personally, that Johnny got tired of his life as an FBI agent. 

Don’t get me wrong, I do think that Johnny love’s being an agent, loves putting bad guys away but I think he grows tired of it. More so, he grows tired of always having to hide who he is, having to have fake relationships where he can’t fully commit because he can’t let anyone know that he’s undercover. He leads a somewhat fake life because he can never truly be who he wants to be or let anyone know the real him.

And it gets tiring. He gets tired of hiding himself. He gets tired of being talked down to by his friends. He gets tired of being undercover all the time and not moving up.

So he gets out. He decides that he’s done with the life of being the “good guy”. I lean more towards saying that he fakes his death, goes out in a blaze of gory so that his mom has something to be proud of and know that he made something of his life. 

He fakes his death and then lays low for a few years. He has some cash and enough skills so that he can survive without making a splash. He makes his way up to Detroit where he’s able to find his niche and he falls into a crowd of counterfeiters. Thanks to all of the things that he learned in the FBI he’s able to build a kingdom where he’s the king. He doesn’t have to hide who he is, doesn’t really give a shit about much and just lives his life.

He becomes the king and nobody fucks with him.

What do you all think? Maybe I’ll make this idea into a fic, or maybe just write shorts about it. If you have anything to add or wanna discuss this my inbox is open and I love getting to hear more ideas on things!
