Will Nathan Fillion be Nova in Guardians of the Galaxy?

Basically, the answer is No. For quite a while now, there had been reports that Nathan Fillion will have a role in the upcoming Marvel sci-fi adventure "Guardians of the Galaxy" and most of the geek community is rooting for him to play the superhero Nova or Nova Prime. Well they just have to rest that idea, and be happy enough with the idea with him being on the movie for a "fun" cameo.

James Gunn himself, who worked with Fillion on Slither, Super, and PG-Porn, confirmed the debunk, via twitter, stating:
"The rumors of my pal Nathan Fillion playing Nova in "Guardians of the Galaxy" have been greatly (and entirely) exaggerated. Sorry, humans." he continues "He (Fillion) has a very small fun cameo he did as a favor to me."
Guardians of the Galaxy opens in Philippine cinemas July 30, 2014.
