Recent discussions between acclaimed actor Ryan Gosling and Marvel Studios have sparked fervent speculation about the possibility of Gosling joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). Fresh off a Golden Globe win and his collaboration with Margot Robbie on the movie Barbie, Gosling is reportedly exploring potential roles within the superhero franchise.
As reported by Marca, Gosling had a meeting with Kevin Feige, the head of Marvel Studios, hinting at the actor’s potential involvement in the MCU. Gosling’s association with the MCU is not entirely new; he was previously considered for the role of Doctor Strange, a part that eventually went to Benedict Cumberbatch.
Fans, who have long yearned to see Gosling don a superhero persona, have often suggested the character Nova as an ideal fit. While details about the specific role remain shrouded in mystery, speculation has heightened, particularly in light of persistent reports about the development of a Nova project within the MCU.
The character Nova, based on Marvel Comics’ Richard Rider, is a prominent member of the Nova Corps and a cosmic superhero. The Nova project received official confirmation in March 2022, indicating Marvel Studios’ commitment to incorporating the character into the MCU. Despite limited production updates and rumors of potential setbacks, fans remain excited about the prospect of Nova’s introduction.
Adding to the anticipation, a fan-made poster circulating online envisions Ryan Gosling as the iconic cosmic superhero Nova. While the official casting for Nova is yet to be revealed, fans have been vocal in suggesting Gosling for the role, along with other actors like Miles Teller, Glen Powell, and Tom Cruise.
The inclusion of Nova in the MCU is expected to bring clarity to the cosmic landscape, shedding light on pivotal moments such as Thanos’ assault on Xandar and the significance of the Nova Corps. As the discussions between Gosling and Marvel Studios continue, fans eagerly await official announcements that could unveil the acclaimed actor’s superhero journey in the MCU.
