Vin Diesel, David Twohy Returning For 'Riddick: Furya'

Vin Diesel is back as Riddick and he's reuniting with David Twohy for the fourth installment of Riddick: Furya.

Twohy is handling the script details and will direct, with Diesel starring and producing under his One Race Films banner alongside Samantha Vincent, who will also produce.

The synopsis for the film has Riddick finally returning to his home world, a place he barely remembers and one he fears might be left in ruins by the Necromongers. But there he finds other Furyans fighting for their existence against a new enemy. And some of these Furyans are more like Riddick than he could have ever imagined.

The series started back in 2000 with Pitch Black, 2004’s The Chronicles of Riddick, and 2013’s Riddick. Twohy has written and directed all three previous films.

“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.”
