Overview
- Asked about a cameo in the July 31 Spider‑Man film, D’Onofrio said he will wait until the rights to his character are worked out before appearing in a movie.
- The actor has previously said his iteration of Kingpin is currently licensed only for television, reflecting complex ownership and usage limits.
- Reporting notes Sony controls Spider‑Man’s film rights, so any use of Marvel characters in a Sony release requires separate agreements.
- Recent rumors of a Kingpin mid‑ or post‑credits tease in Brand New Day have effectively been shot down by D’Onofrio’s comments.
- Daredevil: Born Again Season 2 premieres March 24 on Disney+, with Fisk central to the story, while reports indicate Brand New Day features other Marvel‑linked characters such as Jon Bernthal’s Punisher and Mark Ruffalo’s Bruce Banner.
