13 Upcoming Superhero Movies That Could Beat Civil War

4. Justice League

Lego Batman Upcoming
Warner Bros.

Why It Could Beat Civil War: Well, considering that Civil War was basically The Avengers 2.5 (despite what the Russos say), and Justice League is going to be Warner's two-part version of The Avengers, it's certainly on par scale-wise.

Plus, seeing such an epic line-up of superheroes teaming up for the first time has the potential to be as if not more epic than what we've seen in the MCU so far.

Why It Might Not: Well, the DCEU hasn't exactly gotten off to a stellar start so far: Zack Snyder's direction has been called into question, Chris Terrio is writing the movie and his Batman v Superman script was full of logical leaps, plus the likes of Aquaman and Cyborg are incredibly risky characters, and rumoured villains like Steppenwolf and Darkseid could easily be charmless CGI monstrosities compared to Helmut Zemo.

We'd love to be surprised, but the betting money is surely on Civil War being the better movie.
