Apple TV 4K 120Hz?

I wasn't able to find anything substantial, and I was wondering if someone at Apple could shed some light on the subject for me. With the 2nd Gen Apple TV 4K including HDMI 2.1, will we see 4K Dolby Vision @ 120Hz in a future software update? And if so, how long?

The current focus seems to be to get 60 fps 4K HDR content from commercial services, which is already a feature for the Apple TV 4K (2nd generation).

Where would you get 120 Hz content? Recording in 120 fps is mostly useful for a smooth slow-down effect at lower fps.

Improved Video Experiences
With A12 Bionic, Apple TV 4K now supports high frame rate HDR (High Dynamic Range) and Dolby Vision video, enabling fast-moving action at 60 frames per second (fps) to play more smoothly and appear more lifelike than ever before.¹ Apple is working with leading video providers around the world, including FOX Sports, NBCUniversal, Paramount+, Red Bull TV, and Canal+, as they begin to stream in high frame rate HDR. And with high frame rate support in AirPlay, videos can be displayed in full 60-fps Dolby Vision on the new Apple TV 4K.
