7 Ways The MCU Has Already Set Up Nova’s Introduction

Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT A Nova project has recently been confirmed to be in early development as part of the MCU, with the franchise already including several elements that tease the character's introduction. Nova's superhero origins and powers make him one of the more beloved from Marvel Comics, though the character also known as Richard Rider has been absent from the MCU since its inception.

7 The Nova Corps Were Introduced In Guardians Of The Galaxy The basis of Richard Rider's story has been in the MCU since 2014. Close One of the more obvious ways the MCU has teased Nova's appearance is by the introduction of the Nova Corps. The Nova Corps first appeared in 2014's Guardians of the Galaxy as an intergalactic peacekeeping force based on the planet of Xandar.

Alongside the planet of Xandar and the Nova Corps, Guardians of the Galaxy also introduced Rhomann Dey to the MCU. Played by John C. Reilly, Rhomann Dey appeared at length as one of the Nova Corps' top operatives, opposing then later aiding the titular Guardians against the assault on Xandar by Ronan the Accuser. With Rhomann Dey already being established in the MCU, this necessary part of Nova's backstory has also been teased and would require little introduction.

While Rhomann Dey's Nova powers were not highlighted in Guardians of the Galaxy, his being the last surviving Centurion would explain his increase in abilities before passing them to Richard Rider. 3 Guardians Of The Galaxy 3's Star-Lord Tease Could Tie Into Nova The hint that "the legendary Star-Lord will return" could be used for the MCU's Nova project. At the end of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, it was teased that Chris Pratt would return as Star-Lord in the MCU's future. Given that the film effectively ended the story of the Guardians that began in 2014, many have been wondering how Star-Lord could return in a way that feels satisfying.
