It’s not going to take much to convince Vincent D’Onofrio to join the DCEU. The actor recently took to Twitter to sing the praises of Wonder Woman and Patty Jenkins. It seems Daredevil’s Kingpin is a fan and would be willing to sign up.
While Chris Hemsworth recently revealed that MCU actors are not legally allowed to act in DCEU films, due to their contracts, Vincent D’Onofrio, who plays Wilson Fisk in Netflix’s Daredevil, probably isn’t bound by the same clause. When D’Onofrio took to Twitter to express his love for Wonder Woman, a fan grabbed the opportunity to ask him if he would be willing to act in the DCEU if a role were offered to him. Not surprisingly, D’Onofrio responded with a simple “yup”.

Would you appear in the DCEU if a role were offered to you?

It didn’t take long for fans to start campaigning for Vincent D’Onofrio to be cast as Penguin. While Josh Gad has been teasing the role on social media, Warner has yet to make anything official. Personally, D’Onofrio seems far more suited to play the Batman villain.

A better choice than Josh Gad!
I see him more as Robin.
LOL!
I’m thinking more Darkseid than Penguin.
Nope.
Granted Calendar Man would probably be a waste of the man’s immense talents, but he’s definitely got the look down!
He’s too tall
He should be Darkseid. Either him or that black dude with the French sounding name I can’t remember his name though. He also looks and sounds perfect for the role
Joe pesci for the penguin
Elsje Olivier
Yasssss!
They should have put the villain from Skyfall
Rather have him as Kingpin in Spiderman 2.
No he would be a good penguin but to talk Josh gad is perfect. Vincent D’onofrio would be perfect for darkseid. Or Jeff bridges would be perfect for darkseid too
He would have been perfect for Lex
