After Charlie Cox surprised fans in No Way Home, fans are now expecting the same from Tom Holland in Daredevil: Born Again. There have been multiple speculations about Spider-Man joining the crime-fighting superhero against the popular villain Kingpin. Not just fans, the Kingpin actor Vincent D’Onofrio has also expressed his desire to have combat with the web-slinger on screen.
And it looks like fans won’t have to wait until Daredevil: Born Again to see Spider-Man and the Kingpin go up against each other. The Daredevil star has hinted at facing Spider-Man earlier than expected.
Daredevil: Born Again Star Hints a Battle with Spider-Man
Vincent D’Onofrio made his MCU debut with the 2021 Disney+ series Hawkeye and is also expected to reprise his role in future MCU projects. While fans are excited about future encounters between the crime lord and Daredevil, there has been equal hype for him going against Spider-Man.
And the Kingpin actor has given more air to it with his latest statement. D’Onofrio joined Raleigh’s GalaxyCon this weekend and talked about having any future encounters with the web-slinger. And he seemed quite excited to meet Tom Holland’s Spider-Man as he said, “Eventually, I will beat Spider-Man’s as*.”
Though he did not specify a film or series for such a thing to happen, he definitely left fans guessing when it would actually happen. Whatever the case may be, his statement seems to hint that fans would “eventually” get to see a battle between the crime lord and the Marvel superhero. It could either take place in Daredevil: Born Again or in Tom Holland’s fourth Spider-Man film.
The Avengers: Infinity War actor could reprise his role in the next film and is also expected to join Charlie Cox in Born Again. Both Daredevil and Kingpin will also feature in the upcoming Disney+ series, Echo. While there has been no indication of Spider-Man appearing in the series, anything is possible in the MCU.

Followed by his last appearance in Hawkeye, Vincent D’Onofrio will now reprise his role in the upcoming Disney+ show, Echo. He will be joined by the crime-fighting superhero, Daredevil. He is also expected to feature alongside The Defenders star in Daredevil: Born Again. There have also been speculations that he could also be the villain in Spider-Man 4.
The film is expected to release soon after Born Again, and the 63-year-old actor has also shared that he would love to share the screen with the Marvel superhero in live-action. Earlier in an interview, he said, “I want it as much as everybody does, so we’ll see.”
He shared that his character has close ties with “Punisher, Daredevil, and Spider-Man” in comics. He already faced the two of them in Netflix’s Marvel shows, and it leaves him only with Spider-Man. Although he did not go into details about when it would happen, he did say that it would be really fun to finally share the screen with the web-slinger.
Echo is expected to release in late 2023.
Daredevil: Born Again is set to release in the spring of 2024.
