SEE IT: Vincent D’Onofrio Returns as Kingpin in ‘Echo’ Set Photos

Vincent D’Onofrio has returned once again as Wilson aka Kingpin in brand new set photos for Echo. In the photos, which can be seen below, Kingpin is continuing to rock his iconic 3 piece white suit.

It is unknown how large of a role Kingpin plays in Echo. However, in his MCU debut in Hawkeye he last seen taking an off-camera shot to the face. This leads me to believe the set photos are definitely flashback sequences. That said, that doesn’t mean he isn’t playing a role in the current timeline as D’Onofrio will once again reprise his role opposite Charlie Cox for the 18 episode Disney+ series Daredevil: Born Again.

Alaqua Cox (Hawkeye) stars as the unforgiving Maya Lopez, who made her MCU debut in 2021 in Marvel Studios’ Hawkeye as a deaf gang leader who was determined to make Ronin aka Clint Barton pay for his own vengeful deeds. 

Streaming exclusively on Disney+ in 2023, the origin story of Echo revisits Maya Lopez, whose ruthless behavior in New York City catches up with her in her hometown. She must face her past, reconnect with her Native American roots and embrace the meaning of family and community if she ever hopes to move forward. Echo also stars Chaske Spencer (Wild Indian, The English), Tantoo Cardinal (Killers of the Flower MoonStumptown), Devery Jacobs (FX’s Reservation Dogs, American Gods), and Cody Lightning (HeyViktor!Four Sheets to the Wind), with Graham Greene (1883, Goliath) and Zahn McClarnon (Dark Winds, FX’s Reservation Dogs).

Episodes of the series are directed by Sydney Freeland (Navajo) and Catriona McKenzie (Gunaikurnai). Executive producers are Kevin Feige, Louis D’Esposito, Victoria Alonso, Brad Winderbaum, Stephen Broussard, Richie Palmer, Marion Dayre, and Jason Gavin (Blackfeet). Co-executive producers are Amy Rardin, Sydney Freeland, Christina King (Seminole), and Jennifer Booth.

For those who may be unfamiliar with the character, Maya Lopez, aka Echo, is a deaf Native American (like Alaqua Cox who plays her) character who can exactly replicate the movements of another person in battle. She first appeared alongside Daredevil in a comic strip from 1999.
