Marvel’s slate in 2024 has been thinner than years prior, much of which is due to the fallout of the2023 WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes, but 2025 will crank up the heat with more than eight projects confirmed to release.

When the project was first announced in 2022, it was followed by the news thatMoon KnightwriterSabir Pirzadawould pen the script, but he has since departed and Bernero will serve as his replacement.
Little else is known about Marvel’sNova series at this time, but the report from Deadline also reveals that when the series was first announced, it was unclear if it would be developed as a Disney+ show or a feature film.
