Overview
- Vincent D’Onofrio told a fan on social media that “it’s a complicated rights issue” and urged Marvel and Sony to “get their sh*t together.”
- His return as Wilson Fisk in Daredevil: Born Again on Disney+ comes as Sony readies Spider-Man: Brand New Day for a July 31 release after a record one billion trailer views.
- The roadblock stems from Sony holding Spider-Man’s film rights while Kingpin appears under Disney and Marvel’s TV and streaming banner.
- Neither studio has announced a deal that would allow a live-action meeting between Kingpin and Spider-Man.
- The pairing has only happened on screen in animation, with Liev Schreiber voicing Kingpin in 2018’s Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse.
