Daredevil: Born Again's Vincent D'Onofrio says it would be "very hard" for Wilson Fisk to appear in Spider-Man 4 or any MCU movie

Daredevil: Born Again star Vincent D'Onofrio doesn't have high hopes about his character Wilson Fisk making his MCU movie debut anytime soon.

"The only thing I know is not positive. It's a very hard thing to do, for Marvel to use my character. It's a very hard thing to do, because of ownership and stuff," D'Onofrio said during a recent appearance on the Happy Sad Confused podcast when he was asked about potential big-screen outings.

"Right now, I’m only usable for television series," he continued. "Different kinds of series, whatever it is, but not even a one-off Fisk movie or anything like that, it’s all caught up in rights and stuff. I don’t know when that would work out, or if it ever would work out at all, actually."

Spider-Man 4 is officially titled Spider-Man: Brand New Day, and will see Tom Holland return as our friendly neighborhood webslinger. He'll be joined by Stranger Things star Sadie Sink, but her role hasn't been confirmed yet – although fans have plenty of theories.
