The Web-Slinger & The Clawed Hero: Marvel's Most-Awaited Meetup!
Avengers: Secret Wars might be dishing out the most ambitious Marvel reunion yet, and fans are here for it! As reported by Screen Rant, the whispers around the MCU water cooler are hinting at Tobey Maguire's Spider-Man and Hugh Jackman's Wolverine teaming up. And let's just say - it's the kind of crossover that dreams (and blockbusters) are made of.
A Leap Back in Time: Early Superhero DaysBefore the MCU flexed its billion-dollar muscles, and way before the "I am Iron Man" moment, the early 2000s was all about Raimi's Spider-Man and Singer's X-Men. "Long before the MCU ever became the massive Hollywood juggernaut it's today, the idea of shared universes was pretty much slim to none." In a post-Batman & Robin era, these two franchises held the fort, with 2002's Spider-Man raking in a whopping $825 million. The age-old conundrum of rights issues kept Spider-Man at Sony and the X-Men at FOX, which meant Maguire and Jackman's epic face-off remained a pipe dream. Until now, perhaps?
Maguire & Jackman: From Icons to Avengers?Tobey Maguire swinging back as Peter Parker in Spider-Man: No Way Home alongside Holland and Garfield was nothing short of cinematic gold. And Jackman? He's dusting off those claws for Ryan Reynold's Deadpool 3. So, the stage is set, and the characters primed for an Avengers appearance.
The recent fan-made poster by Art of Time Travel serves a delicious tease, showing Maguire's Spidey and Jackman's Logan joining forces. If this dream were to become reality, it would be akin to the magnetic momentum of the three Spider-Men in 2021. Avengers, prepare for a nostalgia overload!
Multiverse Mania: The Doors are Wide OpenThe multiverse, with its alternate realities, variants, and whatnot, is Marvel's latest playground. "Phases Five and portions of Six will ultimately lead to Avengers: The Kang Dynasty and Avengers: Secret Wars," as the excitement builds for MCU's Multiverse Saga. But the burning question remains: Will Maguire's Spider-Man and Jackman's Wolverine step into this massive multiverse mess?
While nothing is carved in stone, the doors, thanks to the multiverse, are wide open. "Thanks to the multiverse concept, the door is more than open for Maguire's Spider-Man and Jackman's Wolverine to appear in Avengers: Secret Wars."
One can only hope and pray (and maybe rewatch the early 2000s classics). After all, with the multiverse, anything's possible, right?
