I'm excited to see this one (and not just because a certain actress favorite of mine happens to be in the movie too).
Release Date: 2013
Studio: Universal Pictures
Director: David Twohy
Screenwriter: David Twohy
Starring: Vin Diesel, Katee Sackhoff, Jordi Molla, Nolan Funk
Plot Summary: 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.

Hopefully it is more reminiscent of the first one. The second movie was ok, but felt that it strayed to much from what the first one had set up. But for sure will see this in the theatre.
Fun interview with Katee at the link below and how she got the job and has been prepping for the role.

I'm stoked for this one. It's been a long time coming. I hope they can redeem the amazing character that was Riddick, after dragging it through the manure in Chronicles. I'm most interested to see what the Furian culture is like. I hope they delve into that with more than passing interest. Katee Sackhoff,,,habada habada... :andorian
Another pic from the set...

That was quick! Really looking forward to this. Wonder if he's gonna get booted from being the Necromonger leader.
Here's the full trailer for the new movie...I guess he's not King of the Universe anymore...but..KATEE SACKHOFF! Yeah baby.

Looks like it will be a lot like the first movie, cool trailer, though I felt like I saw to much.

Is it me, or does the trailer make it look eerily similar to Pitch Black?
Here's a great pic of Vin & Katee at Comic Con.
Motion comic that came out at Comic Con that is sort of a prelude to the film.

It does peak my interest to see this movie, cool that they put this out there. I was talking so much about this movie at home, my wife actually watched Pitch Black on her own as she never saw it.
New trailer. Looks awesome!

Vin and Katee on the red carpet for the "Riddick" premiere. I'm hearing rumors that Katee might be in the next Fast & Furious film too!

Fun movie. Lot of cool action and effects and an ok story. Much like "Pitch Black" in some ways. It's obvious Vin likes playing this role a lot. And Katee had quite a bit of screen time and kicked a$$! Oh, she looked pretty nice too. Overall, worth a trip to the theater to see in my book!
Hmmm, I think you are slightly biased on this one... ;)

Yep - I sure am. But even without a certain blonde in it I'm pretty sure I would have still enjoyed it.
I went and saw this today, it was fun. Been awhile since I had seen a real true R rated movie, as it really did not hold back. This reminded me, that Riddick is really not much of a likeable guy, he really is an Anti-Hero, as I never really had the feeling if I should be rooting for him or against him. Katee Sackhoff seems good at the tough as nails female, though surprised she did the gratuitous scene .

Gratuitous scene you say..? Hmm, feel it is my duty to check this movie out - even though I cannot say I was ever a Riddick fan.
The scene Jeff mentioned is pretty quick. It fit with the movie so I can see why Katee was cool with it (and I was certainly ok with it too). :)
