Fan art depicting Brie Larson's Captain Marvel and Henry Cavill's Superman teaming up to fight Thanos is causing excitement about a potential crossover between the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) and the DC Universe. Despite being seen as competitors, the success of the MCU has overshadowed DC's previous Extended Universe. However, the future looks brighter for both franchises with the reboot of the DC Universe and the hiring of James Gunn, who worked on the Guardians of the Galaxy franchise, as co-CEO of DC Studios. This fan art imagines the powerful alliance between Captain Marvel and Superman, though Henry Cavill will not be portraying Superman in the future DC Universe. With uncertainties surrounding Larson's future as Captain Marvel, this crossover could be the solution. Although a crossover is a long way off, the fact that discussions have already taken place shows it is a real possibility.
