Top 10 Villains We Want To See Team Up

Throughout film history, the most memorable villains have been complex and frightening, leading fans to wonder what would happen if these powerful foes teamed up. A crossover bringing together legendary villains could create fascinating character dynamics and raise the stakes to an entirely new level. Here are some of the most compelling villainous pairings we’d love to see on screen.

Ghostface & Michael Myers

Ghostface and Michael Myers are very different killers. Ghostface uses mind games and likes to play with horror movie tropes, while Myers is a terrifying, unstoppable force. If they teamed up, it would combine the clever planning from ‘Scream’ with the raw power of ‘Halloween’. Ghostface is quick and tricks his victims, but Myers slowly and relentlessly hunts them down. This makes for a truly frightening situation, as victims would have no escape. Together, they’d represent the ultimate slasher villains.

Cersei Lannister & Maleficent

Cersei Lannister is a master of political maneuvering, known for her sharp mind and willingness to eliminate anyone who stands in her way. Maleficent, on the other hand, possesses incredible magical power, including the ability to transform into a dragon – a force that could have greatly strengthened Cersei’s armies. If they were to team up, it would be based on a shared ambition for power and control. Both women are fiercely protective, and this drive often leads them to make difficult, even cruel, decisions.

Gustavo Fring & Wilson Fisk

Gustavo Fring and Wilson Fisk are both powerful crime bosses, but they operate differently. Fring, from ‘Breaking Bad,’ hides his drug empire behind a calm, business-like persona and focuses on meticulous planning to stay undetected. Fisk, also known as the Kingpin, openly controls New York’s criminal world with force and intimidation. While both value order, Fisk is quick to anger, a trait Fring usually avoids. If they teamed up, their combined intelligence and organizational skills would create an incredibly efficient and unstoppable criminal organization, easily surpassing law enforcement and other gangs.

Agent Smith & Ultron

Both Agent Smith and Ultron see humanity as a problem – Smith wants to eliminate everything that makes people unpredictable, while Ultron believes humans are a failed experiment that needs to be destroyed. Both are artificial intelligences that dislike organic life and can create endless copies of themselves. These powerful programs – from ‘The Matrix’ and ‘Avengers: Age of Ultron’ – could take over technology worldwide and launch a war against all living things, fighting in both the digital world and real life. Because they don’t feel empathy and can think much faster than humans, they are incredibly dangerous opponents for any hero.

Homelander & Omni-Man

Both Homelander from ‘The Boys’ and Omni-Man from ‘Invincible’ appear heroic to the public, but are actually deeply self-centered and see humans as unimportant. They represent a frightening possibility: superheroes with no ethics. If they teamed up, they would likely try to control Earth, ignoring any harm they caused or laws they broke. Their combined power is far beyond anything humans could defend against, and any conflict between them would probably be a fight to see who becomes the planet’s sole ruler.

The Joker & Green Goblin

The Joker and Green Goblin are both villains who revel in chaos, though their motivations differ: the Joker seeks to prove everyone is as corrupt as he is, while the Green Goblin is fueled by obsession and insanity. Both use dramatic, weaponized tools to create fear, and their combined energy would unleash widespread destruction and unpredictable violence on any city. They both delight in tormenting heroes, attacking them personally and mentally. While their partnership would inevitably fall apart due to their unstable natures, the damage they’d cause beforehand would be immense and unforgettable.

Voldemort & Emperor Palpatine

Both Voldemort and Emperor Palpatine crave ultimate power – Voldemort seeks to live forever and create a world of pure-bloods, while Palpatine wants to rule the galaxy eternally through the dark side. They both operate secretly, pulling strings before unleashing their full force. Their skill in dark magic and ability to avoid true death make them nearly impossible to defeat. If the Death Eaters and the Galactic Empire joined forces, it would combine magic with powerful technology. Ultimately, both villains are utterly ruthless and will destroy anyone who opposes them.

Darth Vader & Magneto

Darth Vader and Magneto both lead with strong hands, though for different reasons: Vader to impose order across the galaxy, and Magneto to secure dominance for mutants. Both characters are haunted by difficult pasts and believe drastic measures are needed to achieve what they see as a greater good. As powerful figures in their respective universes – ‘Star Wars’ and ‘X-Men’ – they inspire both loyalty and fear. Their abilities – controlling objects with his mind and magnetism – give them immense power on the battlefield. Despite being on opposite sides, they’d likely find common ground in their shared suffering and disappointment with the institutions they once believed in.

Hannibal Lecter & Jigsaw

Hannibal Lecter expertly analyzes people’s minds, and Jigsaw builds complex traps to challenge their survival instincts. Despite their horrifying methods, both the psychiatrist from ‘The Silence of the Lambs’ and the engineer from ‘Saw’ follow rigid personal principles. If they worked together, Lecter would choose the victims based on their psychological makeup, and Jigsaw would create the deadly tests. Their shared, cold curiosity about their victims is what makes their actions so disturbing. This collaboration would lead to a series of unsolvable challenges that demand a terrible price.

Thanos & Darkseid

Thanos and Darkseid, two of the most powerful villains in the Marvel and DC universes, both pose an existential threat to life and freedom. Thanos thinks wiping out half of all life will bring balance, while Darkseid wants to control every thinking being in existence. If these two ever teamed up, it would take every superhero team working together to stop them from completely destroying everything. Both command huge armies of devoted followers and are incredibly tough, able to survive attacks from even the most powerful beings. The idea of Thanos and Darkseid joining forces to invade a planet is a dream scenario for comic book fans.
