We have been anticipating enormous delays for numerous MCU tasks, and Marvel lastly delivered them. Technically, it’s Disney shifting dates for titles throughout a number of properties, as Star Wars and Avatar additionally noticed huge modifications.

However I have already got a giant motive to be excited concerning the sequel. That’s due to Kingpin actor Vincent D’Onofrio and his somewhat NSFW menace towards Spider-Man throughout a latest panel.
Clearly, we count on extra Kingpin vs. Spider-Man confrontations sooner or later, particularly in a live-action format. In order that’s not a spoiler. However I’ll point out a number of thrilling Spider-Man 4 leaks under that do depend as huge spoilers.
What the Kingpin actor stated
D’Onofrio performed Kingpin within the Daredevil TV present for Netflix, after which we noticed the character in Hawkeye. He’ll reprise his function as Winston Fisk in Daredevil: Born Once more, and I count on him to additionally seem in Echo.
