I don t know how they would do it, Anthony Russo told Games Radar, while Joe Russo added: I mean we closed that book so it would be up to them to figure out how to reopen it.

Clearly, Sony has as much faith in this one as the rest of us. The Aaron Taylor-Johnson vehicle was supposed to arrive in September, but now it s been pushed into December. The same month as Disney s Mufasa and Paramount s Sonic the Hedgehog 3. It looks like the hunter will definitely become the hunted.
