More Details On The Next Riddick Movie: No School Like The Old School
Sci-Fi Movie News, The Chronicles of Riddick 3 Movie — By endymi0n on March 25, 2009 |
Vin Diesel will apparently return to the darkness that he loves so much in the next “Riddick” movie.
Io9 has a brief plot teaser that shows Riddick returning to the close in, claustrophobic action that made Pitch Black a great Sci-Fi film. The new Riddick, like the original, likes the dark for the work he’s best at.
The Goods.
[Edit]
IESB is hearing the new Riddick film will be more down and dirty with less “fantasy epic stuff” to deal with. A bounty hunter/space pirate type of story line is expected.
The film will have a capped budget of around $35 million.
Expect an official announcement about the new film after FAST & FURIOUS opens big on April 3.
Subterranean prisons, dark, narrow spaceship corridors echoing with the sounds of arcane machinery and the muffled screams of Riddick’s victims. A winning formula.

Just a queston.. isn’t this the plotline for “Chronicles of Riddick” you know the movie that already came out.. a few years ago?

IESB was just regurgitating the plot of part 2 at the end of their article (probably to lengthen it), and the only thing they said about the “plot” of the third movie is that it will be …
Original article at IESB.
You are correct. IO9 has removed the quote and without the quote, not much new to tell.
