Vincent D’Onofrio’s ‘Wild’ Journey to ‘Daredevil: Born Again’
Manage episode 469604027 series 3394374
The path to get Marvel’s Daredevil: Born Again made was a “wild” journey, says Vincent D’Onofrio, who plays Wilson Fisk aka Kingpin, the supervillain at odds with Matt Murdock aka Daredevil (played by Charlie Cox), a lawyer by trade fighting for justice. “Any time you’re involved with a project that people are digging, you just feel like you owe them so much and it really inspires you to do a great job and to do the best you can.” After a ferocious campaign from fans, Disney+ brought the series back—initially a Netflix original from 2015 to 2018. Playing a dark character isn’t really about “a love for evil” for D’Onofrio, but “a love for interesting.” As he says: “Do you remember that show Three’s Company? At the end of all those shows, it was always just a big misunderstanding, and that’s how I like to think about how I approach parts that are so far from me...you have to love your character, and if it’s a well-written character you fall in love with it, and then I just think, this is just a big misunderstanding. I’m actually not what people think. That’s the only way.”
