“It is going to happen,” Johnson said. “I’ve been dying to announce it, by the way, but we still have to find the right writer, we’re hearing two or three takes right now, but I’m very, very excited about it. I’ve been waiting a long time for this, and so have the fans, by the way.”
While it’s been largely assumed, this would seem to confirm that Johnson’s character will debut in a standalone film, rather than appearing first in Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice or Justice League.
Johnson’s next film, Hercules opens July 25.
