by There have been contradictory rumours about how the long-awaited Nova project will introduce the character to the MCU.
Richard Rider and Sam Alexander, who have both portrayed Nova in comic books, are reportedly being integrated into the MCU, according to recent rumours. Even hired to write it was one of Moon Knight’s writers.
The project was anticipated to be a TV programme when the writer was revealed. That series, however, was said to have changed to a Special Presentation due to all the changes taking place at Marvel Studios behind the scenes.
Most recently, rumours began to circulate that the character might actually be getting a full-length feature film.
Recent online claims about Nova’s future in the MCU paint different pictures.
Nova’s Contradictory Future in the MCU
There have been recent conflicting rumours regarding the planned Nova project, according to Lizzie Hill of The Cosmic Circus.
Although it’s unclear if Nova will be a Special Presentation or a TV series, Hill said she has heard that “Nova is still headed to Disney+”:
Despite the fact that its status as a special or series may not yet be decided, It is still heading to Disney+. It was earlier reported as a special by @AlexFromCC on @MyCosmicCircle.
As opposed to Hill’s account, Twitter leaker @MyTimeToShineHello said that “Nova [was] going to be a movie not a series or a special” around the end of last December.
@FilmOdysseyMCU, another scooper, chimed up with the observation that “For Nova, [they’ve] heard a special [rather] than a movie.”
The project has “heard different things about it,” according to Film Odyssey, which would account for the conflicting stories making the rounds online:
“I’ve been informed that Silver Surfer is a special, as was first stated. Nova, though, has received mixed reviews (I’ll go into more depth shortly).
What’s the Deal?
Given the inconsistent evidence, it’s possible that Marvel Studios was exploring two distinct projects for the characters, as stated by Film Odyssey, which is the source of all the confusion.
After all, there are two significant characters that go by the name in comic books. Maybe one will be featured in a Special Presentation before the other joins the fun in a later TV show or film.
After all, every hero has their own areas of expertise. Sam Alexander would be an excellent fit for the Young Avengers or Champions of the Marvel Cinematic Universe whereas Richard Rider tends to be more involved with the larger cosmic events.
Both versions of Nova would be present at once in the MCU, according to an earlier report. Maybe Marvel Studios decides it’s best to let each have its own emphasis.
Though it’s difficult to ignore the money issue when determining whether format is superior in the end. With all the cosmic events involving Sam Alexander and Richard Rider, it is evident that a larger budget is preferable.
Many fans have been impatiently waiting for to become more prominent in the MCU while holding their breath. I’m hoping it won’t be too much longer.
