Doug Belgrad, the studio president, declared the news on the opening day of Comic-Con, and said that they felt "confident" about the super-villain project's release date, which is to be helmed by Drew Goddard, and believe that it would and would make Sony a stronger competitor against the other upcoming superhero films.
