Marvel Developing ‘Nova’ Project With ‘Moon Knight’ Scribe Sabir Pirzada



EXCLUSIVE: Richard Rider aka Nova looks to be joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe as sources tell Deadline that Marvel is developing a Nova project with Moon Knight scribe Sabir Pirzada on board to write. It is unknown for now whether this will be developed as a feature film or a limited series for Disney+. As always, Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige will produce.

Nova first appeared in an 1966 issue of Super Adventures was member of the intergalactic police force known as the Nova Corps, for which he gained superhuman abilities including enhanced strength, flight and resistance to injury. While the character didn’t have many run-ins with some of the main figures of the current or past MCU, he did have some battles with the Skrulls, who have big parts in recent and upcoming Marvel projects including Captain Marvel and the limited series Secret Invasion.

its about damn time for Richard Rider to get some love. It better be Rider and not that loser geek Sam Alexander Kid Noa.

I wonder if this means Galactus (and subsequently Silver Surfer) are well on their way to the MCU? After all, Galactus is an enemy of Nova, plus it would tie in nicely with that Fantastic 4 MCU project coming up. Although I suppose Annihilus is more likely.
