Everyone has been talking about Justice League ever since it was released to theaters. While it’s not exactly the box office success Warner Bros. hoped for – or the film fans have wanted for decades now – it’s still a miracle to have happened at all. Especially when you consider past attempts like George Miller’s Justice League Mortal. And because it’s such an exciting time for fans to discuss what could’ve been, one person decided to create his own trailer for a Justice League film which would’ve crossed over with Fox’s X-Men – Justice League vs. X-Men.
The X-Men franchise seems to have adapted pretty well over the years, developing alongside the Marvel Cinematic Universe and coming up with its own plethora of spin-offs and television shows.
But while X-Men has kept up with Marvel, YouTuber Stryder HD decided to see what would happen if they came together with the Justice League.

It’s a pretty innovative trailer, using compiled footage from both film franchises to look like they’re actually crossing over. One must also applaud the comparisons drawn between the superheroes and mutants, which suggests such a crossover could actually have some interesting depth.
Unfortunately the film will likely never happen in a million years, and so for now we’ll have to stick to the normal Justice League movie – though, Superman actor Henry Cavill said he’d like to see a Marvel DC crossover movie one day:
“I think the rivalry lives in the fans more so than it does in us. For all of us who are making these movies or I’m sure for the comic book artists and writers, there have been rivalries in the past but now it’s just about celebrating these characters, certainly for us. I mean, I’m sure when it comes to deep finances, when it comes to DC and Marvel there’s always going to be competition, yeah, but they need each other to survive as well. If one goes down that means superheroes aren’t popular and you don’t want that because if one goes down the other goes down.”
Justice League is currently in theaters everywhere.
