The Wilson Fisk / Kingpin by Vincent D’Onofrio made his official debut in the Marvel Cinematic Universe in the final episodes of the series Hawkeye by Disney +, much to the delight of fans of the character. Kingpin was the main antagonist of the show Dare devil, and is probably among the best Marvel villains in live-action.
Starting from that assumption, some fans were concerned about seeing Kingpin in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, as this would have meant the sacrifice of the terrifying and violent interpretation of the character seen in the Netflix series
During the ComicBook Nation Podcast, Vincent D’Onofrio talked about his future in the MCU and one of the most interesting topics covered was theinevitable confrontation between this new Kingpin and the violent version seen in the Marvel / Netflix universe:
Well, I think the difference in tone is obvious: it’s less gory. We talked about it a lot, for me it’s not a concern, because if I ever get a chance to go further with the MCU, then I’ll do the same work on Daredevil as on Hawkeye. Kingpin has emotional brutality, is a shattered monster, and is capable of engaging in different types of brutality. He is simply a brutal monster. So none of that worried me during Hawkeye.
I noticed – of course – that there is less blood, and there is less torture. The thing you need to do is stay away from torture. And that really cuts things off. Like many of the bad guys you play, they aren’t just bad guys, they actually torture people – they take control of them and torture them. And it’s too violent for them [Disney, n.d.R.].
Kofi Outlaw, conductor of ComicBook Nation, asked if, while knowing the limits of violence in the series belonging to the Marvel Cinematic Universe of Disney +, we could still see the Kingpin we met in Dare devil. The actor’s response was as follows:
When you see Wilson Fisk he must feel uncomfortable, whatever is going on. Whether he’s dressed in that ‘Family Business’ costume or not.
The actor refers to the Hawaiian shirt wearing Vincent D’Onofrio’s Kingpin in the final episode of the series Hawkeye, which deviates from the more minimal clothing seen in Dare devil.
