Vincent D'Onofrio has been hinting at the future of his character, Kingpin, following the finale of the Marvel series 'Echo'. In discussions about the character's direction, D'Onofrio offered his own interpretation, stating “I don’t think he’s changed; I think he’s enlightened”. Meanwhile, the 'Echo' series star Alaqua Cox, who plays Maya Lopez, also teased what might be next for her character after a significant final face-off with Kingpin. In related Marvel Cinematic Universe news, 'SPIDER-MAN 4' is reported to introduce a new villain never before seen in live-action, expanding the universe's roster of antagonists. Additionally, commentators are suggesting that within the MCU's ongoing Multiverse Saga, Kingpin could emerge as a key villain, overshadowing even Kang the Conqueror in terms of narrative importance.
