Marvel has had a big year on the small screen, particularly this week, when it was announced that the studio had earned its first acting nomination since 2021. Marvel Studios kicked off 2026 by dropping all episodes of Wonder Man as a binge, and the show did so well that it was renewed for Season 2. This week, the Television Academy announced that leading star Yahya Abdul-Mateen II has been awarded an Emmy nomination for his performance in the show — it’s the first time a non-Guest actor earned an Awards nod since WandaVision. Marvel followed Wonder Man with the second season of Daredevil: Born Again, and we’re now almost halfway through the sophomore season of X-Men ‘97. Marvel’s only remaining Disney Plus show with a release date is VisionQuest, which is coming out this October between Spider-Man: Brand New Day and Avengers: Doomsday.
Marvel is always developing new projects, even ones like Armor Wars, which is seemingly stuck in development limbo with no end in sight. Another show that appeared to be following a similar trajectory is Nova, a Disney Plus show that’s been in and out of development for years now. However, fans spotted a clue this week that could allude to Nova finally overcoming a major development hurdle, which is that Michael Waldron has listed the show as a writing credit on his WGA (Writer’s Guild of America) official page. Waldron is best known for his work in the MCU on shows like Loki and movies like Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. He’s also credited as a co-writer on Avengers: Doomsday, which opens in theaters on December 18.
When Does Marvel’s ‘Nova’ Series Come Out?
Marvel has yet to announce a release date for its Nova Disney Plus show, nor have any casting or plot details been released or even reported at this time. This, paired with Marvel’s busy schedule in the next few years, make it nearly impossible to predict when Nova could be released. There is a flip side to this coin, though, which is that Marvel’s secrecy could work to its benefit when it comes to Nova. Marvel Studios could be at a much more advanced stage of development on Nova than anyone realizes, meaning the series could be eying a release window sometime in 2027 before Avengers: Secret Wars. The Avengers will certainly need all the help they can get against Doctor Doom.
