"It's so much fun being a character actor,"
"I've been acting for so long now, and it's still so much fun to create these characters."
"He's a super pathetic human being, that guy," he says of Forst. "There's just a freedom in it. You can just be as obnoxious as you want, and obviously, it has to fit the story and stuff, but you get this freedom of just really going for it. It's so much fun. And when you're conscious of it while you're doing it, it's sort of like Stockholm syndrome. You learn to love your character, but you start off hating it."
Vincent D'Onofrio is an iconic actor with credits including Full Metal Jacket, Men in Black, Law & Order: Criminal Intent, and Ratched. He is widely recognized for portraying Wilson Fisk, aka Kingpin, in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. D'Onofrio embraces the character actor identity and enjoys creating distinct roles. In Ryan Murphy's The Beauty he plays Byron Forst, an ultra-rich, insecure businessman who pursues a cosmetic "shot" and ultimately transforms into The Corporation, portrayed by Ashton Kutcher. Forst is a less confident, more pathetic foil to Fisk. D'Onofrio brings Method training and upcoming Kingpin work in Daredevil: Born Again Season 2.
