Vincent D’Onofrio shuts down ‘Hawkeye’ questions by telling followers to donate to charity

Vincent D'Onofrio has shut down poorly-timed fan requests to comment on a potential appearance in Marvel's 'Hawkeye.'

Netflix’s Daredevil gifted superhero fanatics with a modern-day godfather, Wilson Fisk, aka Kingpin.

As many U.S. citizens — and most of the world — will already know, Western Kentucky was recently devastated by a flurry of tornadoes; the unfortunate natural disaster left many Kentuckians without homes or refuge. Subsequently, many celebrities and influencers have rallied together to raise money that will sustain those affected by the aftermath of destruction.

Former Kentucky and NBA star Rex Chapman tweeted his appreciation for over $150,000 raised in just two days by the U.S. and abroad. Vincent D’Onofrio tweeted in response regarding his contribution and encouragement, asking fans to follow in his footsteps and donate to The Rex Chapman Foundation — a charity that aims to assist with tornado relief efforts in Western Kentucky.
