Vin Diesel And David Twohy Talk Trilogy Details For RIDDICK

You may remember in my previous article where I highlit a Facebook post by actor Vin Diesel who recently partook in a private screening with producers for the upcoming film, Riddick. In case you haven’t read it, the film, directed by David Twohy, releases on September 6, and is already making headlines regarding hopeful plans for a follow-up that deals with the “underverse” mythology illustrated in the 2004 film, The Chronicles Of Riddick. “So the there was a screening for the Studio…” Diesel wrote on his Facebook page over a week ago. “The Director thinks it’s Riddick’s best, the Producers think it’s the Director’s best… and the Studio.. well… The Studio now wants to make the following chapter… ‘COR: The Underverse’. Although, this would be few years away, a script could come in next month… P.s. Those 30 million of you, who saw the production process through Our page… kinda surreal […]

FILM OF THE WEEK (5/13/13): THE CHRONICLES OF RIDDICK

Lee B. Golden III

SYNOPSIS: It is a dark time in the universe. Planet after planet is falling to an unholy army of Necromongers–conquering warriors who offer ravaged worlds a simple choice–convert or die. Those who refuse their rule hope in vain for someone or something that will slow the spread of Necromongers. But rebels are short-lived and saviors, it seems, are in short supply.

So an unlikely figure is summoned from exile and asked to join the fight: Riddick, who couldn’t care less who’s in charge of the universe, just as long as he’s left along. Since leaving a god-forgotten (and creature-ridden) planet in the […]
