In the first Guardians of the Galaxy (Certified Fresh at 94%) in 2014, director and co-writer James Gunn included the Nova Corps as something of a supporting cast and comedic foils. Many Marvel Comics fans, however, were excited to see the Nova Corps on film (even if their uniforms were a little… off), because it suggested that the Marvel Cinematic Universe could someday introduce one of the Earth heroes known as Nova. The first Nova (Richard Rider) was introduced in 1976 and went on to be in super groups like The New Warriors, Defenders, Secret Avengers, and Guardians of the Galaxy itself. There was also a time when Richard Rider was presumed dead, and another younger Nova (Sam Alexander) took over, and he was also in a few teams, notably the Avengers and the Champions. We bring up both Nova heroes, because there is some mystery around this week’s news that Marvel Studios is now developing a solo Nova project. In addition to it being unclear which Nova the film will be about (some sources are presuming Richard Rider, but that wasn’t confirmed), it’s also unknown if Nova will be a feature film, or perhaps one of the Disney+ streaming series (like WandaVision, Hawkeye, and the upcoming Moon Knight). Whatever it turns out to be, it’s currently being adapted by screenwriter Sabir Pirzada, who also wrote two episodes of Moon Knight.
