Marvel Studios And Sony fighting over Ownership of Kingpin
Vincent D'Onofrio debuted as Wilson Fisk in Netflix's Daredevil. He stayed for three seasons before the show ended and made a surprising return in Marvel Studios' Hawkeye.
Charlie Cox played Matt Murdock in Spider-Man: No Way Home weeks later before playing Daredevil in She-Hulk and Echo. Next to Cox and D'Onofrio is Daredevil: Born Again.
Cox will voice Daredevil in Marvel Animation's Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man in 2022. Unfortunately, D'Onofrio's series participation is uncertain.
"I'm going to transparently say this: You know the whole Marvel-Sony thing, right?". "So there are characters - Marvel characters invented by Marvel, written by Marvel - that are caught in between Marvel and Sony. And so it takes a long time for them to figure out who is doing what."
"I just never really know where [Kingpin can show up]. My character is in that kind of situation, unlike Charlie's. So I don't know, it's part of the deal when it comes to playing Kingpin,"
