Vin Diesel and David Twohy are returning for the fourth installment of the 2000 hit Pitch Black in Riddick: Furya. Diesel is starring and producing under his One Race Films, with Samantha Vincent also producing, with Twohy taking up directing screenwriting duties.
In Riddick: Furya, Riddick finally returns to his home world, which he barely remembers, but fears it might be in ruin due to the Necromongers. On his planet, he finds other Furyans fighting for their existence against the Necromongers. Some of these Furyans are more alike to Riddick than he ever imagined. In 2004, Diesel and Twohy came out with The Chronicles of Riddick and Riddick in 2013.
“Our legion fans have demanded it for years, and now we’re finally ready to honor their call to action with Riddick: Furya,” Twhoy said. “My collaboration with Vin and One Race has spanned 20 fruitful years, as together we’ve created three movies, two video games, an anime production, and motion comics for the internet. This new big-screen event will see a return to Riddick’s homeworld, where we finally get to explore Riddick’s genesis.”
Diesel is no rookie in action films, with his most significant roles being in the Fast and Furious saga, Guardians of the Galaxy, Saving Private Ryan, xXx, and Bloodshot.
As well as writing and directing the previous Riddick films, Twohy has written scripts for The Fugitive, The Arrvial, and Below.
