The Kingpin had a big presence in all three seasons of Daredevil, and while their war seemingly ended with Wilson Fisk's defeat in the season 3 finale, it will soon resume...in the Marvel Cinematic Universe!
Following each of their respective (re)introductions in Spider-Man: No Way Home and Hawkeye, the stage is being set for Matt Murdock and New York City's Kingpin of Crime to face off in 2024's Daredevil: Born Again. They'll likely cross paths in Echo before then, of course, but Vincent D'Onofrio has promised fans that big developments are coming in that 18-episode series.
Talking at Salt Lake FanX 2022 in Utah, the actor told fans in attendance, "You guys have no idea what you’re in store for with Born Again. I know a little bit more than you guys. And all I can say is, during that next series, you’re not going to be thinking about anything but the next episode. I promise."
He'd go on to say that, even after the in-depth exploration of both characters in Daredevil, we can expect even deeper insights into them when Daredevil: Born Again hits Disney+.
"I can only say...I’m trying to have to stick to the rules, so I will only say that Charlie and I are going to be given the chance to dig deeper than ever before with our characters," he teased.
We can't wait to see where things go from here. Even if episodes of Daredevil: Born Again are relatively short (which would make sense given how many episodes we're getting), Marvel Studios will have plenty of time to explore the place of these characters in the MCU, and how the hatred they have for each other continues to deepen.
Rumour has it the events of this show will lead into Spider-Man 4, with the wall-crawler and Daredevil teaming up to put an end to the Kingpin of Crime once and for all.
Daredevil: Born Again arrives on Disney+ in 2024.
