A Mega Man movie looks to be on the way. Henry Joost and Ariel Schulman, who were responsible for the film Catfish, are “in final negotiations to write and direct,” according to Hollywood Reporter. The Mega Man movie was rumored as early as 2015.

Chernin Entertainment is said to be producing the movie with Heroes actor Masi Oka. Hollywood Reporter adds that 20th Century Fox attempted to acquire the rights for more than two years. Earlier in 2017, they finally managed to make that happen.

Specific details about the Mega Man movie have not yet been made known.
