Among his statements, since he has to stick to the rules and can’t reveal too much, he confirmed that he would be taking on Daredevil in both series, which will excite everyone.

Kingpin, Daredevil, and Spider-Man?

Vincent D’Onofrio teased that he would love to interact with other Marvel Studios characters, such as Spider-Man. To which he replied to a fan, “I mean, there’s really only one end goal… And I think someone just said who that would be.”

But when referred to which of the three Spider-Man, he would like to face (Tobey, Andrew, or Tom), he indicated, “Well, I know a lot of these answers I give you, they’re not the answers you want, but I want to fight all of them. It doesn’t have to be at the same time. I just want them all. So finally, there’s the truth. I want them all.”

If we remember, this villain, Wilson Fisk, is one of the most memorable villains in the comics. We must add that Vincent D’Onofrio has delivered a magnificent performance bringing this character to life. So we can all agree that he should keep playing the character in the MCU for a long time.

According to a report from this year, Kingpin and Daredevil would return in another Marvel Studios series, Echo. Additionally, a rumor claims that Charlie Cox’s Daredevil will appear in three episodes. In comparison, Vincent D’Onofrio’s Kingpin would be in four episodes “wearing an eye patch because he was shot in the head in Hawkeye.”

The series, written by Marlon Dayre, and episodes that Catriona McKenzie and Sydney Freeland will direct, will bring new plots to fans, which will surely leave them trapped, wanting to join the sequences of each story, which is very typical of the Marvel universe.
