Feige said, “I mean, I think about it occasionally, like any fan would think about it. I don't know when in the heck that would ever happen, or how that would happen. But we've been talking too long for me to go, 'Never! We'd never be able to do that.' We'll never say never, but no, no plans.”

The challenges of crossover

However, there are significant challenges. Both universes have distinct characters, styles, and stories. Balancing these in a single film wouldn't be a massive undertaking. Feige and Gunn are both creative powerhouses, and their collaboration could make such a project possible. But it would likely take years of planning for a crossover.

During an interview with Empire, Gunn also spoke about the much-anticipated crossover. He said, “Who knows? That’s many years away, though. I think we have to establish what we’re doing [at DC] first. I would be lying to say that we haven’t discussed it. But all discussions have been very, very light and fun.”
