8 Superhero Movie Crossovers We’d Love To See At Some Point

There's never been a better time to be a comic book movie fan. It’s become a bit of a cliché to say it by now, but that doesn’t make it any less true. As 2016 has made plain, with multiple franchises producing at least two a piece this year, various studios are working towards creating expansive, all-encompassing movie universes that mirror the shared worlds of the comics. Marvel are obviously in the lead with this at the moment, but Fox’s X-Men franchise is finally realizing its potential and DC are quickly playing catch up.

Spider-Man Wolverine

The Crossover: After Deadpool, the next X-Men character we want Spidey to meet on the big screen is Wolverine. Unlike the Merc with the Mouth, there’s not a lot of similarity between Peter and Logan – which is exactly what makes them an irresistible pairing.

When they’ve met in the comics, Wolvie and Spidey haven’t seen eye to eye at first, but eventually come to a begrudging respect. Despite Hugh Jackman’s imminent departure from the role, we’d love to see him turn up in a Spider-Man movie. Just like he almost did many years ago.

Likelihood – 5/10: Unfortunately, we don’t have much faith in this one happening any time soon. As we just said, Jackman seems set on bowing out of the role, which rather puts the dampers on future crossover potential. Though, without Jackman, it’s just about possible that Fox could give the Wolverine character back to Marvel. In which case, a Spider-Man/Wolverine team-up could happen – just with a new actor in the role.
