The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen
I thought I would bump this since it's such an awesome idea for a thread. And on that note I will start it off with a League of my own.
I don't know what would bring the entire League together but I assume that it would involve some alien invasion. I do know that time travel would be involved in a secondary tale, sending the team to 2084, or the 1984 universe which was predicted by George Orwell a hundred years early.
Agent J (Men In Black): The leader of the new League, he has since matured from his days as a rookie MIB. J would be something of a weapons specialist and know about the alien agenda that's plaguing the team. His look has updated a bit to that of Detective Spooner from I, Robot, maybe suggesting that J is an uncle or father of the character from the film.
James Bond (James Bond films): Bond would be forced to join the team because MI6 has bee tasked with providing their best man for the job. Bond wouldn't want to be there but would still excel compared to his less professional counterparts.
Hermione Granger (Harry Potter books): Hermione would be called to the League because of the recent disappearance of Harry Potter. She would be in her thirties now and would be one of the most accomplished wizards of her era.
Teddy Lupin (Harry Potter Epilogue): Aiding Hermoine in the search for his godfather, Teddy would be less experienced with magic than his 'aunt' and rely more on his shape-shifting and werewolf skills inherited from his parents. He'd be the smartass of the team and kind of irritates the elder members of the team.
Will Hunting (Good Will Hunting): Will's still kind of a jackass since the events of Good Will Hunting, but he's now working as an annalist for the US government and has thousands of secrets locked inside his brain. Will would act as the super brain for the League and tends to stay out of the action that the rest of his teammates get into.
Mutt Jones (Indiana Jones 4): He's in his sixties at this point, but his years of adventuring led him to an experience with the Holy Grail which makes him look about thirty five, and he now looks like his father, complete with fedora and whip. He'd essentially be the leader of the team alongside J and would clash with him for the role.
David Dunn (Unbreakable): The lead character from M. Night Shyamilan's film will now have matured and grown into his role as a superhero. He's now an urban legend who uses his vast strength and precognition as a hero and is pulled into the league in order to be the tank of the team. He's very calm and quiet compared to his teammates and doesn't say much until the battle starts.
Will Turner (Pirates of the Caribbean): Even though he doesn't come from the same time period as his teammates, Turner's just as young as he was in the Pirates films due to his role as the new Davey Jones. Turner would be the transportation for the team, providing the same capacity that Nemo did in the original League. Turner would of course join the team for the huge battle on land for his one time in ten years.
I would think that would be a good mixture of characters for a good potential story.
