Richard Rider and Sam Alexander, who both took up the mantle of Nova in the Marvel comics, may make their Marvel Cinematic Universe debut in the future, according to Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige.
ComicBook.com asked Feige several questions regarding Nova's, including whether the Richard Rider or Sam Alexander version would appear in the MCU, and if they would receive a standalone film or cameo in another MCU project. "Well, yes and yes," Feige answered in response to all the questions. "Timing is relative, right? I think I'd been talking about Doctor Strange eight years before that movie came out. So, 'immediate potential' is relative." Feige went on to point out that the Nova Corps would fit well into the cosmic side of the MCU.
First appearing in 1976's The Man Called Nova #1, Richard Rider entered the Marvel Universe as a member of the cosmic police force known as the Nova Corps. The character would appear in many popular series and storylines, including New Warriors, Annihilation and Realm of Kings. Additionally, Rider has been featured in Marvel animated TV shows and video games, including The Super Hero Squad Show and Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite.
Meanwhile, Sam Alexander made his comic book debut in 2011's Marvel Point One #1. Created by Jeph Loeb and Ed McGuinness, Alexander starred in a solo series and appeared in the animated TV shows Ultimate Spider-Man and Guardians of the Galaxy.
Currently, there are no official plans for Richard Rider or Sam Alexander to appear in any future Marvel Studios projects.
