I say “Nova” in quotes, because speculation is – it won’t be Rich Rider. Speculation is that they’re going to tie this Nova into the Nova appearing in the Spider-Man cartoon.

Gazillion Entertainment announces it has licensed Epic Games’ award-winning Unreal Engine 3 (UE3) to power its highly anticipated, free-to-play “Marvel Heroes” massively multiplayer online (MMO) game for PC. Under the licensing agreement, Gazillion, through its Secret Identity Studios, is using the cutting-edge Unreal Engine toolset to develop a premier entertainment experience that allows players to take on the roles of revered characters such as Captain America, Iron Man and Spider-Man as they play through events of the Marvel Universe.
“We love Unreal Engine 3’s streaming system. It’s made our entire technical approach possible and is easy to work with,” said Jeff Lind, studio director of Gazillion’s Secret Identity Studios. “We also love the flexibility we get from the actor components, which have empowered us to make all kinds of customizations without sacrificing the built-in features of the engine.”
Secret Identity Studios Art Director Josh Book added, “Our artists love the Unreal Content Browser, the visual art pipeline, and how functional UE3 is with different 3D packages. We had assets in the game within hours of starting work with the engine. In addition, Unreal Lightmass is a very advanced global illumination tool that has helped push the look of our game further than we thought it could go.”
“Capturing the distinctive moments of such revered fiction within a game environment is no small task, and it’s critical to use the very best tools and technology to deliver the production values fans expect,” said Joe Kreiner, North American licensing manager, Epic Games. “Having grown up with Marvel’s iconic heroes and villains, we’re really honored to help Gazillion and Secret Identity achieve their creative vision and quality bar for the game.”

Disney XD will launch Marvel Universe, a dedicated Marvel programming block, with the new series “Ultimate Spider-Man” as its centerpiece, on Sunday, April 1, it was announced today by Gary Marsh, President and Chief Creative Officer, Disney Channels Worldwide at the Television Critics Association Press Tour in Pasadena, California. Marvel Universe on Disney XD will be the ultimate place for fans to find exclusive Marvel content, including new animated short-form series, live-action interstitials and the series return of “The Avengers: Earth’s Mightiest Heroes!” The block will be home to Marvel’s biggest superstars, such as Spider-Man, Iron Man, Hulk, Thor, Captain America and many more to introduce dynamic stories of action, adventure and heroism to a whole new generation.

Acting as the keystone of the Marvel Universe block, “Ultimate Spider-Man” features a teenage Peter Parker juggling the typical growing pains of high-school with the not-so-typical growing pains of being a super hero.

Spider-Man is getting yet another TV incarnation. But this time he’s teaming with some other lessser-known Marvel characters whose presence will surely please some Marvel comics fans.
The announcement was made today by Gary Marsh, President and Chief Creative Officer, Disney Channels Worldwide, at the Television Critics Association Press Tour in Pasadena, Calif.
In the “Ultimate Spider-Man” universe, Peter Parker is a teenager. And while he’ll face some recognizable Spider-Man villains, he’ll also get some help. Spidey is working with Nick Fury’s Shield team, which includes White Tiger, Power Man, Iron Fist and Nova.
Yup, Nova.
I’m super psyched that the cosmic hero who has had a recent renaissance in the Marvel world will be getting some on-screen exposure. I’ve long thought an animated Nova series had potential. And this could be a step in that direction.
“Ultimate Spider-Man” will be part of the new Marvel Universe block of programming that will debut April 1 on Disney XD. The second season of Avengers: Earth’s Mightiest Heroes also will be part of that block.
UPDATE: A release from the network this afternoon said that Nova, White Tiger, Iron Fist and Power Man also will be teenagers in this version. And a short trailer of the series shown to us this morning revealed that Whit Tiger we’ll see will be the female hero currently donning the costume in the comics.
The voice actors for those four supporting roles were not announced. Drake Bell (“Superhero,” “Drake & Josh”) voices Peter Parker/Spider-Man, Chi McBride (“Boston Public,” “Pushing Daisies”) is Nick Fury, JK Simmons (“Spider-Man”) is J. Jonah Jameson, Stan Lee (“Spider-Man”) as Stan the Janitor, Clark Gregg (“Iron Man”, “Thor,” “The Avengers”) is Agent Coulson and Steven Weber (“Wings”) voices Norman Osborn.
