Development

[edit]

In March 2022, Marvel Studios was revealed to be developing a project featuring the character Richard Rider / Nova, with Sabir Pirzada writing.[2] Pirzada previously served as a writer on the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) Disney+ series Moon Knight and Ms. Marvel.[2][3] It was unclear at that time whether the project was a series or film, but Justin Kroll of Deadline Hollywood reported that it was likely to be a Disney+ limited series.[2][4] Earlier in the month, Production Weekly had included a space-centered Marvel Comics television series for Disney+ in their report of upcoming projects in development,[5][6] believed to be the Nova project by writers at ComicBook.com;[7][4] Production Weekly later confirmed the untitled series was the Nova project.[8] Development of the series had slowed down by February 2023, when Disney and Marvel Studios were re-evaluating their content output and costs.[9] Brad Winderbaum, the head of streaming, television, and animation at Marvel Studios, confirmed in March 2024 that a Nova project was in early development and said he was aiming to develop it as a series.[10] A few months later, he said the character had "a lot of potential" and was a project the studio was particularly excited about developing.[11] Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige confirmed in July that the project was being developed as a series and would feature Richard Rider. He anticipated that it would be released three or four years later.[1] In September, Winderbaum revealed that the series would feature an ensemble cast similar to the science fiction franchises Star Trek and Battlestar Galactica, and would depict the "heated" nature of Richard Rider's world from the comics.[12] Feige and Pirzada will produce the series.[2][8]
