Vincent D’Onofrio, who played Wilson Fisk in the Netflix series Daredevil: Born Again, recently assured fans that the upcoming Disney+ Marvel show will be just as gritty, bloody, and brutal as the previous series. In an interview with Newsweek, the 63-year-old actor expressed his initial concern about the raw and brutal nature of the Netflix show, but he later realized that Marvel has been incorporating brutal scenes in their recent series as well.
D’Onofrio stated, “All I can say […] is that if you look at the most brutal stuff that Marvel is doing, which is few and far between, but it’s there, it will be there for us too.” He also added that the show will have emotional violence in addition to physical violence, and it will be a long game for the actors involved.
The actor went on to say, “I think that if people have watched everything that Fisk has been in, my character’s been in, they know that it actually is going to go there, and I think in Echo there’s a lot of that.”
Fans of Daredevil are eagerly anticipating the upcoming Disney+ series, which will introduce a new character named Echo, played by Alaqua Cox. With D’Onofrio’s reassurance that the show will be just as violent and emotional as the previous series, it seems that fans won’t be disappointed.
