Lead star Vin Diesel has once again updated his Facebook with a new message and a new concept art for Riddick, the upcoming third installment in his sci-fi action franchise. Titled "The Final Stand of Riddick," you can check it out right here. You can also see his previously revealed concept art here. Returning franchise writer/director David Twohy is leading at the helm in preparation of a 2012 release.
Here's what Diesel had to say in his latest update:
Concept art and Key frames allow a production to explore possibilities before actually committing to film. The road to the "R" rating, that so many of you were vocal about, has been a long one. The advantage however, (never empower the negatives) was that we were allowed a really extensive pre-production process. The art work is so good, the artists have really outdone themselves in illustrating this world at it's early stage.
When this film comes to the screen... know that you willed it into being!
Haha...
I got two meetings today that I have been prepping for... one with the Director and another one with the head of the studio to discuss casting and the 2012 release date. Like always, I appreciate having your voice present in these meetings.
Plot Concept: Betrayed by his own kind and left for dead on a desolate planet, Riddick (Diesel) fights for survival against alien predators and becomes more powerful and dangerous than ever before. Soon bounty hunters from throughout the galaxy descend on Riddick only to find themselves pawns in his greater scheme for revenge. With his enemies right where he wants them, Riddick unleashes a vicious attack of vengeance before returning to his home planet of Furya to save it from destruction.
So then, how to explain away the whole last movie? That is my one problem with what is going on with this movie, I actually really liked the last Riddick movie. Liked Pitch Black more, but Chronicles was good too in it's own way. I don't know why people down on it so much, but hey, to each thier own.
I want to know why he does is not in charge of the Necro's anymore. He was like Conan and killed his way to Kingship. Why is he not the leader anymore? They had better have a good explination for it otherwise this movie is going to start with one HUGE plot hole.
