Good question. Nothing concrete that I have heard of, but there have been so many speculation from the S58, S55, Toyota heavy revised B58, and even to a Toyota in house drivetrain (most least likely imo). And of course this all depends on how well the current 3.0 Supra sells.
An off topic tidbit. In 97 Toyota was already in the early process of developing a new Supra. However, because of low sales from the A80 the project was quickly dropped.
I recall rumors and reports at the time that it would have been pretty much a hard top reskin Lexus SC430 and offered in both V6 and V8.
