My male coworker wants to hangout... is this genuine?

Anonymous
So a guy from another organization and I have been in communication via email for work programs. And because of the pandemic and our cities lockdown any work he was planning to do with my company was not possible. We kept in touch off and on. Today he emails me and gives me his phone number and tells me to text him since my emails get buried. So I messaged him. We did small talk and then he asked when we could meet up. I expressed to him its a pandemic, everything is closed. He suggested we either go outside of our city where things aren't locked down or we could go to either ones home. Either way I told him I am tied up today. So first he said that was cool we will figure it out, then he said once we figure out the day I should just know that we will be watching crappy holiday romcoms. Then he asked again if im sure that he can't just come over today. I told him no. He said ok and to let him know when.
So... is this a general he wants to spend time with me and get to know me or is he thinking something else? His persitantness is what has me...
Thoughts?
