Richard Rider aka Nova looks like the next superhero to make his live-action debut when he will join the Marvel Cinematic Universe in the near future.
According to Deadline, Marvel is developing a Nova project with Moon Knight scribe Sabir Pirzada on board to write the project.
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 a 1976 issue of Super Adventures was a 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.
Sabir Pirzada is a scribe who landed a high-profile Marvel project in which he was helping in the writer’s room for the upcoming Disney+ series Moon Knight starring Oscar Isaac which is set to debut on March 30 only on Disney+.
