Vincent D'Onofrio Talks Daredevil and The Defenders

Vincent D'Onofrio, who play the criminal mastermind Wilson Fisk, a.k.a. the Kingpin, spoke to Screen Crush a bit about the new role and entering Marvel's shared Defenders universe.

D'Onofrio says working with Marvel has been like a great experience so far:

Yeah. I mean, it's kinda cool. The thing about Marvel is that they're not – they're into real acting. They're looking for artists that are willing to take chances and are willing to create characters, even if that character has been around for years and years in comic books, they still are depending on us to create something and take it somewhere else.

Robert Downey [Jr.] is the perfect example of that. Who knew that Iron Man was going to be who Robert made him?

D'Onofrio will make his debut as the Kingpin in Daredevil, the Netflix television series set to debut in May 2015.
