Let’s solve this crossword puzzle step by step using the clues and the word bank.

We’ll go clue by clue, matching each to a word from the Word Bank that fits both the meaning and the number of letters (based on grid spaces — though we don’t see exact counts, we can infer from common knowledge and cross-checking).

---

ACROSS →

2. Disney movie about Anna and Elsa → FROZEN
7. Man of Steel → SUPERMAN
10. English rock band → THE BEATLES
11. One Direction singer → HARRY STYLES
12. Social media platform → TIKTOK
17. Battle Royale video game → FORTNITE
18. Marvel superhero → IRON MAN

*(Note: “Man of Steel” is Superman, but he’s DC, not Marvel — so 18 must be Iron Man. That works.)*

---

DOWN ↓

1. Boy wizard → HARRY POTTER
3. Superhero in red and blue suit → SPIDERMAN
4. Sci-fi movie series → STAR WARS
5. Mystery solving cartoon dog → SCOOBY DOO
6. Video game with blocks → MINECRAFT
8. Longest running cartoon → THE SIMPSONS
9. Singer of Single Ladies → BEYONCE
13. Vampire movie → TWILIGHT
14. Collectible creatures → POKEMON
15. Fantasy TV show → GAME OF THRONES
16. Disney movie about Simba → THE LION KING
19. Pop star → TAYLOR SWIFT
20. James Cameron movie → AVATAR

Now let’s verify these fit logically with intersections (even without seeing the full grid, we can check for consistency):

- For example, if 1 Down is HARRY POTTER (11 letters), and 10 Across is THE BEATLES (11 letters) — they might intersect at position 1? But since we’re not given grid coordinates, we rely on matching definitions + word bank.

All answers are directly from the Word Bank and match the clues perfectly.

Also note: The image includes pictures like Harry Potter glasses, Minecraft characters, Star Wars X-Wing — which confirm some answers visually, but per instructions, we ignore describing the image.

Final check: All 20 clues have unique matches from the word bank. No duplicates used. All make sense culturally/pop-culture-wise as of 2026.
