The cast of the X-Men franchise play superheroes on screen, but they recently paid tribute to the real-life heroes helping during the coronavirus epidemic. During the Global Goal: Unite For Our Future event [1] on Saturday, Hugh Jackman [2], Sir Patrick Stewart, Halle Berry [3], Ryan Reynolds [4], James McAvoy [5], Sophie Turner, Liev Schreiber [6], and Famke Janssen reunited via a hilariously chaotic Zoom call. The video started with the original X-Men jumping on the call, before Reynolds went full Deadpool by crashing the chat and inviting a few other people to join. In Turner's defence, she actually thought it was a Game of Thrones [7] reunion. Naturally, the video call ended with frenemies Jackman and Reynolds awkwardly chatting, before another cast member made a quick cameo.

The star-studded event also included appearances from Billy Porter, who spoke on the importance of fighting for social justice [8], as well as performances from Chloe x Halle [9], Jennifer Hudson [10], Miley Cyrus [11], and John Legend [12]. Watch the fun X-Men reunion in full above.
