'''''«Riddick»''''' is an upcoming sequel to ''«[[The Chronicles of Riddick]]»'' film. |
|||
==Development== |
|||
[[Vin Diesel]] is going back to the future to topline and produce a third chapter in the "Chronicles of Riddick" franchise. |
|||
Universal will handle domestic distribution on the [[sci-fi]] film, which is titled '''''«Riddick»'''''. [[Lionsgate]] is selling international rights at the [[Berlin Film Festival]]. |
|||
[[David Twohy]] - who wrote and directed the first two films in the series ("[[Pitch Black (film)|Pitch Black]]" and "[[The Chronicles of Riddick]]") - will helm from a screenplay he penned. |
|||
Plot details are being kept under wraps. But insiders say the third outing will hew closer in tone to the cult hit "Pitch Black" and will focus on the character of Riddick as opposed to the universe he inhabits, which was the case with the critically panned "Chronicles of Riddick." Still, "Chronicles of Riddick" earned $116 million worldwide and spawned a successful vidgame series. |
|||
Dates are being worked out for "Riddick" so as not to overlap with Universal's [[Fast Five (film)|fifth installment of "Fast and Furious"]], which will shoot sometime this year with Diesel onboard to star and produce. |
|||
Diesel and Samantha Vincent are producing "Riddick" through their One Race Films banner. Radar Films' Ted Fields is also producing. |
|||
Twohy most recently wrote and directed "A Perfect Getaway." |
|||
==Plot== |
|||
Betrayed by his own kind and left for dead on a desolate planet, Riddick (Diesel) fights for survival against alien predators and becomes more powerful and dangerous than ever before. Soon bounty hunters from throughout the galaxy descend on Riddick only to find themselves pawns in his greater scheme for revenge. With his enemies right where he wants them, Riddick unleashes a vicious attack of vengeance before returning to his home planet of Furya to save it from destruction. |
