During a Q&A at FAN EXPO Dallas 2025, John Cena, known for his role as Peacemaker, expressed a desire for collaboration between DC and Marvel. He hinted at the possibility of character crossover, saying, "I would love Iron Man to shake hands with Superman." Despite a competitive history, both studios have recently shown signs of goodwill, with Marvel's Kevin Feige advocating for great superhero films from both sides to enrich the movie experience. James Gunn's comments reflect a growing recognition that rivalry can coexist with collaboration in the superhero genre.
I would love Iron Man to shake hands with Superman. I would love to see all superheroes across all platforms be involved in a universe. So, if that happens and I get my wish as a member of the DC[U], I would essentially walk into the MCU.
Kevin Feige has stated in the past that he wants his company's rival to make great superhero movies for the sake of preserving the importance of the moviegoing experience.
James Gunn clarified on Threads that Disney's mandate for increased output has led Marvel to pass the 'sacrifice-everything-for-streaming craze.'
The first crossover issue between DC Comics and Marvel Comics was 'Superman vs. The Amazing Spider-Man,' highlighting their long history of occasional collaboration.
