Riddick Sequel: It's Up To Vin

Writer/director David Twohy rcently posted an update on his blog about the status on the as yet Untitled Riddick Sequel once again starring Vin Diesel  

Here's the meat and potatoes of where things stand....

"The hurdles seem to be dropping. The final turn is being rounded. The finish line (actually a starting line) seems closer than ever.

Of course, there are no guarantees in this mad endeavor called “filmmaking'… but we’ve reached a critical mass of enthusiasm and resource needed to launch a movie. If we go now, we can make it now. If we don’t, we may never. And trust me, we’re all keenly aware of that.

Vin will be the driving force behind this next movie; I’m merely the writer-director. Am I being facetious? Kinda. But kinda not, too: It’s Vin and the concessions he chooses to make that will allow this movie to go forward. And his love of the character, of course."
