Vincent D'Onofrio Rules Out Kingpin for Marvel DEFENDERS and SPIDER-MAN

Vincent D'Onofrio is fairly adament that Wilson Fisk, aka Kingpin, will not be appearing in the new Marvel Defenders series. Comicbook reports the actor went on Twitter to address several fans asking and essentially said "not a chance"...

When another fan asked about Spider-Man and if we could expect to see Fisk in the MCU, D'Onofrio was less confident but said it's highly unlikely...

That I doubt.Seems to be so many characters in the film uni to service.The films are already jam packed. https://t.co/q2YyCIpynH

I don't think you can bring D'Onofrio's Kingpin to the new Spider-Man universe. That Wilson Fisk is wayyyy too dark for a series that's going to center around high school age Peter Parker. As much as I love his portrayal, I think it's time for the series to give him a break so the world doesn't get tired of him! Let's be excited for whomever The Defenders are taking on!
