Vincent D’Onofrio Reaffirms Interest in DC’s Swamp Thing Role While Continuing as Marvel’s Kingpin

The actor’s ongoing enthusiasm for Swamp Thing contrasts with his current commitments to Marvel, as the DC project directed by James Mangold remains in development.

Vincent D’Onofrio recently reiterated his desire to portray Alec Holland, also known as Swamp Thing, in a potential DC film, responding directly to fans on social media.
This is not the first time D’Onofrio has expressed interest in the role, having previously mentioned it in 2023 and again at Dragon Con in 2024.
The Swamp Thing project, directed by James Mangold, is confirmed to be in development but lacks a clear release timeline, with progress described as uncertain.
D’Onofrio remains a key figure in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, reprising his role as Kingpin in 'Daredevil: Born Again,' which recently concluded its first season.
Fan reactions to D’Onofrio’s interest in a DC role have been mixed, with some expressing disapproval due to his established presence in the Marvel franchise.
