It looks like a Nova movie might finally be in the works as according to some sources, a film starring Richard Rider’s cosmic hero is actively in development at Marvel Studios – information Cosmic. Fans have been calling for this to happen for years now, but Phase 5 – where it would likely land – is probably the right time for it and it could reintroduce a popular character we wouldn’t have seen for a while by that point.

Though the Mad Titan has nothing to do with Nova in the comics, he could be directly linked to his origins in the MCU version of events. Back in Avengers: Infinity War, Thor relayed to the Guardians of the Galaxy that Thanos had pinched the Power Stone from Xandar when he’d destroyed the planet. Though this major event was included in early drafts of the script, the incident wasn’t depicted on-screen. But it could be in Nova.
