Over the past few years, Kingpin has played several roles for the Marvel viewers. Although most viewers identify him as Daredevil's ultimate nemesis following his appearance on the Netflix TV program, Wilson has also been among Peter Parker's toughest adversary in the comics and several comic book media adaptations. Those who would have tuned in to Spider-Man: The Animated Series in the 1990s would have only known him as an enemy of the web-crawler, not as a foe of the Devil of Hell's Kitchen.

This could also help to explain why D'Onofrio's Kingpin hasn't shown up in the MCU films—especially Tom Holland's Spider-Man films—as both companies have to approve. But given Kingpin's ongoing popularity in the MCU audience and his major roles through Hawkeye, Echo, and now Daredevil: Born Again, that could be changing in the foreseeable future as dialogues about the character are sure to become integral as his story gets yet more entwined with Daredevil. This should make Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man all the more intriguing when it comes time for release later this year since its potential Kingpin incarnation will be particularly noteworthy with this in mind.
