MEETING KINGPIN! Vincent D’Onofrio Gets Candid About Daredevil Born Again & His DARK Psychology!

The teases for Daredevil Born Again SEASON 3 gave us goosebumps! !! Coy Jandreau & Greg Alba sit down with the legendary Vincent D’Onofrio for an in-depth Daredevil: Born Again interview about Wilson Fisk / Kingpin, Charlie Cox’s Daredevil, Marvel Studios, Kevin Feige, the creative overhaul behind the series, and what may be ahead for Daredevil Season 3. Vincent D’Onofrio (Daredevil, Full Metal Jacket, Men in Black, Law & Order: Criminal Intent, The Cell) reflects on returning as Wilson Fisk / Kingpin, breaking down the psychology, physicality, voice inspiration, and emotional foundation behind one of Marvel’s most intimidating villains. The conversation explores Fisk’s loneliness, rage, dark sense of humor, spirituality, and the Kingpin improvised “boo” scene, along with how comic book artists like David Mack helped shape his performance. Plus, Vincent drops a surprise, passionate casting pitch to join James Gunn's DC Universe as Swamp Thing! The interview also dives into the Daredevil: Born Again creative overhaul, with D’Onofrio discussing how he, Charlie Cox, and the creative team pushed to make the series feel more like a true Daredevil story. He talks about Marvel Studios’ creative support, Kevin Feige, why Marvel reshot portions of Daredevil, and how the team had to “Frankenstein” what had already been shot to build a stronger version of the show. D’Onofrio also teases Daredevil Season 3, including more action, emotional journeys, and new territory involving Kingpin’s childhood backstory, size, trauma, and the darkness that shaped Wilson Fisk. Based on the iconic Marvel Comics characters, Daredevil: Born Again continues the story of Matt Murdock / Daredevil (Charlie Cox — Stardust, Boardwalk Empire, The Theory of Everything) and Wilson Fisk / Kingpin as their mirrored obsessions with justice, control, morality, and the soul of New York City pull them deeper into conflict. The conversation also heads into DC territory as D’Onofrio opens up about his dream of playing Swamp Thing, why Alec Holland speaks to him emotionally, and what he would bring to James Gunn’s DCU if given the chance. From Vincent D’Onofrio’s Swamp Thing pitch to Marvel behind-the-scenes stories, Marvel snipers, Kingpin’s dark psychology, and the future of Daredevil Season 3, this Reel Rejects interview offers a rare look inside one of the MCU’s most unforgettable comic book performances. #DaredevilBornAgain #Kingpin #VincentDOnofrio #SwampThing #DaredevilSeason3 #MCU #JamesGunn #DCU #CharlieCox #MarvelStudios #ComicBookNews #ReelRejects #KevinFeige #Daredevil #WilsonFisk #Marvel #Interview #DaredevilBornAgainSeason3 #spiderman 00:00 - Vincent D’Onofrio Interview Intro 01:14 - Daredevil Training & Naqam Washington 01:46 - Wilson Fisk vs Kingpin Explained 02:34 - Kingpin Voice Inspiration 04:12 - Daredevil: Born Again Season 1 & 2 05:07 - Why Marvel Reshot Daredevil 07:22 - Daredevil Season 3 Tease 08:50 - How Kingpin’s Voice Changed 10:44 - David Mack & Daredevil Comics 12:18 - Kingpin’s Brutality & Physicality 14:07 - Wilson Fisk’s Dark Humor 15:13 - Kingpin’s Improvised “Boo” Scene 16:29 - Matt Murdock, Faith & Kingpin 19:47 - Vincent D’Onofrio Swamp Thing Pitch 24:08 - Other Kingpin Actors & Versions 25:38 - Kingpin Childhood Backstory 27:19 - Benson & Moorhead on Daredevil 28:41 - Vincent D’Onofrio Career Legacy 30:28 - Final Daredevil Season 3 Thoughts The DAREDEVIL: BORN AGAIN Directors:https://youtu.be/hrwCHNMiOBw Project Hail Mary - Ryan Gosling Interview & More: https://youtu.be/cMvYq0_xeu0 Meeting Sean Gunn (Interview): https://youtu.be/-_w2tIiwzog Follow Coy Jandreau: https://www.youtube.com/@CoyJandreau https://www.tiktok.com/@coyjandreau?lang=en https://www.instagram.com/coyjandreau/?hl=en https://twitter.com/CoyJandreau Follow Greg Alba: https://www.instagram.com/thegregalba/ https://twitter.com/thegregalba Intense Suspense by Audionautix is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Follow TheReelRejects On The Socials: IG: https://www.instagram.com/reelrejects/ TT: https://www.tiktok.com/@thereelrejects?lang=en TWITTER: https://twitter.com/thereelrejects FB: https://www.facebook.com/TheReelRejects/ Music Used In Ad: Hat the Jazz by Twin Musicom is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Happy Alley by Kevin MacLeod is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Supervising Producer: https://twitter.com/nerdchronic?lang=en Co-Editor: Greg Alba Music In Video: Airport Lounge - Disco Ultralounge by Kevin MacLeod is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ PLAYLISTS: Trailer Reactions & Reviews: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-bIhJVeYWw9ZsLdoAQFpx38s2hhyFgDe
