If you actually give it some thought, The Chronicles of Riddick is a truly fascinating science fiction series. However, it never became a mainstream hit, although it has, throughout the years, become a cult classic.
The stories of the 28th-century antihero Riddick are at the heart of the series, which was developed by brothers Ken and Jim Wheat. Three full-length films and one animated short have been released since the series debut in 2000, and while many thought that the franchise was over, we are soon going to return to the world of Riddick.
As you probably remember, we have recently reported on the production of Riddick: Furya, the upcoming fourth live-action movie in the franchise, having received some new information and images. In this report, we are happy to say that a new image from the set of the movie has been revealed so keep reading to check it out!
As previously stated, Riddick: Furya will be the fourth installment in the series. The first film in the series, Pitch Black, was released way back in 2000 and quickly became a cult favorite.
The next two movies in the series were Riddick (2013) and The Chronicles of Riddick (2004). Additionally, Diesel lent his voice to Riddick in the 2004 short animated film The Chronicles of Riddick: Dark Fury. We also have the video games Escape from Butcher Bay and Assault on Dark Athena, which are part of the story.
As you are aware, following the animated feature, David Thowy took over the franchise from the Wheat Brothers, and will return to write and direct Riddick: Furya. Earlier, Thowy said the following about the upcoming film:
Our legion fans have demanded it for years, and now we’re finally ready to honor their call to action with Riddick: Furya. 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.
Having said this, we got our first image of Riddick not that long ago, and now Vin Diesel has gone to Instagram to share a new image of his character:
The image certainly looks absolutely amazing, and if this is a foreshadowing of what the whole movie is going to be like, we are more than excited about Furya, as it might be the best one yet, which is what we are hoping for.
