It has been quite some time since the two cinematic universes have clashed horns. Although the hardcore DC and Marvel fans are always at war with one another, the jokes have rarely made it onto the big screen.

With James Gunn being the co-head of DC Studios, the director has worked with Marvel Studios in the past with hisGuardians of the Galaxyfranchise. Naturally, one or two Marvel jokes in a DCU project are expected of Gunn.

In one of their conversations, The Bride states“Can it, Ghost Rider”while referring to Doctor Phosphorus. It has been quite a while since these cross-cinematic universe jokes have been made and fans are loving it. However,this isn’t the only jokethat James Gunn is allegedly planning to make on Marvel Studios.

Marvel’s Josh Brolin is allegedly switching sides!

Although it might be just a bit of harmless fun, Josh Brolin, who is known for portraying the role of Thanos in the MCU, may have hinted at something bigger. A fan art was recently made ofJosh Brolinas Darkseid and was shared on the internet.

According toCosmic Book News, Brolin decided to take things one step further as he apparently took note of the fan art. The actor may not have been able to help himself as Brolin reposted the art on his Instagram story.

The fun part is that Josh Brolin was offered the role of Hal Jordan in the DCU showLanterns, a part which he denied. After a while, rumors spread that Brolin was allegedly in talks to join the DCU in a pivotal role. The actor’s timings couldn’t be better as theSicariostar posted the story around the same time.
