If anyone can make a Marvel and DC crossover movie one day, it is James Gunn. With Gunn’s strong relationship with Marvel Studios and Kevin Feige and the fact that he’s now one of the reigning leaders at DC Studios might make something work someday.

During a recent interview with Empire, Gunn talked about the possibility of a crossover and said that this is something that has actually been discussed, but if it happens, it will be several years from now after he establishes his DC Universe, which has yet to throw. He said:
“I’m sure it’s more likely now that I’m in charge [at DC]. Who knows? It will take many years, but… I think we need to establish what we are doing [at DC] First. I’d be lying to say we haven’t discussed it. But all the discussions were very, very light and fun.”
This crossover is something Gunn has been teasing for years. A couple of years ago Gunn was asked about the possibility, and he said:
“I’ve casually talked about it with the powers that be at both Marvel and DC. I wish that would happen. I don’t think it’s likely, but I also don’t think it’s impossible. THAT SAID, seeing crossovers and mashups constantly is less glamorous to me than a strong story.
But, with Gunn now leading the charge at DC, in his words, it’s “more likely now that” he’s in charge. If a crossover did eventually happen, which characters from each franchise would you like to see together in the same movie?
Do you think Gunn and Feige would actually allow big A-list characters to cross paths or do you think they would be more like C- or D-rank characters?
