He is expected to appear in court on Friday. Mr Goodman was also charged with possession of a firearm and ammunition with intent to endanger life, and having cannabis with intent to supply.
Police told Belfast Magistrates' Court they are still searching for both the gun used in the killing and a second suspect.
A judge was told police were strongly opposed to Mr Goodman being released on bail. A detective sergeant claimed witnesses in the case could be put at risk.
"The suspect knows many of those who have made statements," he said.
"The firearm used remains outstanding and a second suspect remains at large."
'Tensions high'
It was also revealed that the home of another person said to have been involved in the incident has been attacked.
"Tensions remain extremely high in the community in relation to his murder," the detective added.
