A recently released deleted scene from the Disney+ series Hawkeye shows The Kingpin after the the battle of New York
In a deleted clip from Hawkeye that has now found its way online. In the clip, we see Wilson Fisk aka Kingpin after the battle of New York which was led by Loki and led to the formation of the Avengers. Fisk meets Eleanor Bishop played by Vera Farmiga and comes to an agreement to let her continue the deal he had with her late husband.
Kingpin appears in the fifth episode of Hawkeye and is taken on by Kate Bishop (Clint Barton's apprentice) for going after her mother in the finale.
Vincent D'onofrio made his debut as Kingpin in the Netflix series Daredevil in which he played the main villain. The show and his performance were very well received and went on to spawn several spinoff shows like Luke Cage, Iron Fist, and The Defenders.
However, Marvel reacquired the rights to the characters, and the Netflix shows were canceled but thankfully the characters were reinforced into the MCU.
While the Kingpin was introduced in Hawkeye, Matt Mardock aka Daredevil was introduced into the MCU in Spider-Man : No Way Home as Peter Parker's lawyer.
The appearance of both these characters opens up the possibility of seeing characters like Jessica Jones played by Krysten Ritter, The Punisher played by Jon Bernthal and Luke Cage played by Mike Colter in the MCU again.
In a recent podcast with Comicbook.com vincent, Donofrio talked about his role and return in Hawkeye,
"To have Kevin (Feige) call me and say 'I'd like you to come do Hawkeye,' it was like, I think it's comparable to somebody getting that job that they want. I think we all can relate to that, it's the same thing. It did put a smile on my face, and I did say yes right away."
Hawkeye follows Avenger Cliff Barton team up with a young Kate Bishop to uncover a vast criminal conspiracy in the City of New York during Christmas
The Cast of the show includes Jeremy Renner , Hailee Steinfeld, Tony Dalton, Florence Pugh, Alaqua Cox, and Linda Cardellini
