The death of Robert Downey Jr.’s Iron Man inAvengers: Endgamewas one of the most impactful moments in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. In order to re-captivate the attention of the audience, the MCU needs to do something even better to top the iconic moments featuring Downey Jr.
Well, what’s better than a movie around the battle of Earth 616’s Avengers and X-Men? While the idea may seem too good to be true for the current version of the MCU, this idea has already been explored in Marvel Comics.

MCU Has Reportedly Discussed an Avengers vs. X-Men Film
Killing off a major character is not everyone’s cup of tea, as it requires making a bold decision regardless of its impact on the future of the franchise. Speaking of deaths, Iron Man’s iconic snap to wipe out the Mad Titan and his army arguably ranks at the top of the list as far as MCU deaths are concerned.
However, ifThe Cosmic Circus’exclusive report about a potential Avengers vs. X-Men is proven correct, fans will witness an unprecedented amount of deaths in the future.
According to one source, another idea that’s been tossed around involves an Avengers vs. X-Men film set between the members of the 616 Avengers and the X-Men. However, it’s still too early to discuss, as the X-Men have not yet made their way to the 616 universes just yet.
As mentioned in the excerpt from The Cosmic Circus’ report, the higher-ups at the MCU have discussed a potential Avengers vs. X-Men film. It will have all the ingredients to be an epic blockbuster and could even surpass box office records held by the previous films in theAvengersfranchise.
One hurdle in order to make the film is introducing X-Men characters to the current MCU. While there is a chance that the studio will accomplish that goal inDeadpool 3,Hugh Jackman as Wolverine is already confirmed to appear in the film.

Will a Potential Avengers vs. X-Men Film Stay True to Marvel Comics?
The Marvel Cinematic Universe may own the rights to characters from the comics, but there have been a plethora of instances when the studio hasn’t stayed true to the comics. Keeping that in mind, the MCU could tweak a few details in the story.
On the other hand, if they stay true to the source material, it will lead to the likes of Professor X and several other mutants meeting their maker. The most prominent death in the comics was of none other than Professor X.
However, in order to create a lasting impact on the audience, the MCU could kill off some key members from both groups.

With that said, if the project gets green-lit at the MCU, it will certainly diminish the impact of the death of Robert Downey Jr.’s Iron Man inAvengers: Endgame.
