James Gunn Says No Nathan Fillion Nova For Guardians of the Galaxy

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:15928:]]

It’s been rumored that Nathan Fillion will be playing Richard Rider Nova in the Guardians of the Galaxy post-credit scene.

However, we get some bad news from director James Gunn.

He says Nathan Fillion is not playing Nova.

The good news?

Gunn didn’t come out and specifically state there is no Richard Rider Nova in the movie; so we can at least hope Richard Rider is still set to appear (even though we’ve been told no Nova).

Guardians of the Galaxy has an August 1, 2014 release.
