Vin Diesel has two movies coming out this month. He has provided the voice of Groot for Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 (read our review Here), and he’s back in the role of Dominic Toretto for Fast X. But while he’s attending events and doing press to promote those projects, he’s also looking forward to getting to work with writer/director David Twohy on Riddick: Furya, the fourth film in their Riddick franchise. He has shared Furyan concept art on his Instagram account before, and now he has unveiled another piece of concept art. You can check it out at the bottom of this article.
Riddick: Furya will be a continuation of the sci-fi action franchise that began with the creature feature Pitch Black back in 2000. That was followed by the epic The Chronicles of Riddick, which underperformed at the box office in 2004, so they reduced...

Last month, it was announced that Vin Diesel and writer/director David Twohy are about ready to get rolling on Riddick: Furya, the fourth film in the Riddick franchise and a project that Diesel has been regularly mentioning pretty much ever since the third movie was released ten years ago, doing his best to keep the Riddick hype alive. His efforts must be working, because shortly after last month’s announcement all three of the previous Riddick movies cracked the Netflix top 10 in the United States. Pop Culture reported that, at one point, the Riddick movies were ranking in the top 10 in reverse order: “Riddick stands at number four, Chronicles of Riddick at number seven and Pitch Black at number nine.” So Diesel took to Instagram to celebrate the Netflix success of the films while mentioning that he’s working to get Riddick 4 into production.

Almost ten years have gone by since the release of the previous film in the Riddick franchise – and pretty much ever since the release of that movie, franchise star Vin Diesel has been taking every opportunity to hype up the fact that he and franchise director David Twohy are planning to make another sequel, Riddick 4: Furya. So while Diesel is currently busy wrapping up the Fast and the Furious franchise with this year’s release of Fast X and then one more sequel beyond that one, he still took a moment to remind fans that he intends to make Riddick 4: Furya. The latest reminder comes in the form of two pieces of concept art, which you can check out at the bottom of this article.

David Twohy and Vin Diesel’s may be prepping to blow the doors off their cult Riddick franchise with the Merc City TV show along with a fourth – and possibly R-rated – movie, but the former is keeping busy beyond the realm of Furyans and galactic mercenaries, after Variety brings word that Twohy has been tapped to write and direct Ice Moon Rising.
Remaining in the sci-fi genre for the time being, the outlet notes that Ice Moon Rising has been hatched as an American-Chinese co-production, and will chronicle a daring space mission to Europa, one of Jupiter’s many moons that has enchanted scientists and stargazers for generations.
That’s because Europa is said to house massive oceans beneath its icy exterior, and Twohy’s feature will extrapolate that scientific reality and craft a plot involving alien creatures and wayward astronauts. Bound for Jupiter’s satellite, the Chinese and American...

Vin Diesel’s affection for his fanbase saw him officially confirm the fourth Riddick movie via social media earlier today. And while we already knew it was on the cards, the action stalwart had a couple of surprises in store for his “global family.” David Twohy swung by to chat with the Fast and Furious star through live video streamed straight to Diesel’s Facebook, and the pair discussed the upcoming Furia.
The fourth movie plans to revisit the saga that began with Pitch Black in 1999, and focus its attention on the origins of Diesel’s brooding Furyan. While it’s currently in the scripting stages, Twohy outright confirmed his plans for it to bear the R-rating, which confirms it’ll follow in the footsteps of its dark fantasy predecessors. As for what exactly Riddick’s past contains, the pair remained tight-lipped, except for Diesel, who revealed it will be...

Following on from confirmation earlier that a TV series spin-off to the "Riddick" franchise is on the way, the franchise's star Vin Diesel posted an unannounced live video on Tuesday and teased to nearly 200,000 viewers a special guest - "Riddick" creator David Twohy.
The pair confirmed that they will start filming on the fourth chapter in the film series, titled "Furia," beginning in early 2017. The story will effectively serve as an origin story of where Riddick comes from, and it is targeting an R rating confirmed Twohy quite bluntly.
The project is also said to have a "more expansive mythology". Diesel himself describes the new one as a "little more expansive in its mythology". No word on when the spin-off TV series "Merc City" could begin production.
